Skilled Workforce Essential for Malaysia's Digital Transformation
Published
The government has affirmed that a skilled workforce is a key factor in Malaysia's digital transformation efforts. Minister Chang said the country needs more citizens with skills in the digital technology field to support future economic growth.
During this period, many companies and government agencies are using new technology in their daily work. Therefore, appropriate training and education are considered very important so that workers can keep up with these changes. The government believes that collaboration between universities, industry and the public sector will help provide a quality workforce.
In addition, the government also defends its decision to provide greater development allocations to Sabah and Sarawak. According to the government, both states face their own geographical challenges, such as vast areas and residents living far away in rural areas. The government explained that these factors need to be taken into account in development planning.
In conclusion, the government stressed that human capital development and regional development are both important for the nation's future. Further details on this policy are expected to be announced later.
