Thursday, 22 Jul 2021 08:42 PM MYTKOTA KINABALU, July 22 — The Malaysia Internet Exchange and the National Tech Association of Malaysia today expressed “deep concern” that the submarine cable cabotage issue has yet to be resolved, despite the government’s assurance to look into it in April.
He acknowledged that the government has to prioritise the Covid-19 pandemic, but said: “The cabotage policy needs to be addressed immediately”. “Multinational companies and foreign investors, some of which are MyIX members, are deeply concerned with the silence on the cabotage issue,” said Chiew. Chiew said its industry sources claimed that new submarine cables that were planned to land in Malaysia have now been put on hold by foreign investors.
MyDIGITAL, which comes under the National Digital Economy Blueprint, is the government’s strategic initiative to further grow Malaysia’s digital economy. The aim is for the digital economy to contribute 22.6 per cent of Malaysia’s gross domestic product by 2025 while creating 500,000 new jobs. In the same statement, Pikom chairman Danny Lee urged the government to reinstate the cabotage exemption policy for foreign vessels undertaking submarine cable repairs.
