CYBERJAYA: Multimedia Development Corp (MDeC) has received many proposals, including from state governments, to set up MSC Malaysia cyber centres, said chief executive officer Datuk Badlisham Ghazali.
MDeC had also received proposals from the private sector in several unserved areas, particularly in the Klang Valley, he said in an interview.
He said MDeC would continue to open more cyber centres, now numbering 11, in the country.
MDeC was in discussions with state governments like Sabah, Kelantan, Pahang and Perlis on the possible rollout of cyber centres, according to Badlisham.
On setting up the cyber centres, he said: “Obviously, it is not a property development activity.
“First, we look at where opportunity should expand based on the existing ICT companies.
“Second, we would like to see green field development where people from the start put up the necessary infrastructure.”
The proposed area should have 99.9% availability of power and telecommunications, such as broadband facilities, he said.
