Malaysia
Internet Subscribers to Double by 2012
January 30, 2007 KUALA LUMPUR,
Malaysia -- The number of the Internet subscribers in Malaysia is expected to
reach the 10 million mark in the next five years according to Telekom Malaysia
(TM) Bhd General Manager of Strategic Development Division, Dr Fadhlullah
Suhaimi Abdul Malek. His statement is based on the growing trend of Internet
users in the last three years as Malaysia moved towards advanced information,
communications and multimedia services.
In 2004 the number of subscribers was 2.9 million, in 2005 it increased to
3.5 million subscribers, and in 2006 the number of subscribers in Malaysia
was close to five million. This is an encouraging growing trend, and most of
the Internet subscribers were eyeing for high speed broadband infrastructure.
Regarding the number of fraud cases involving Internet transactions are
relatively small and Malaysia has sufficient laws to deal with such fraud cases.

Malaysia - Internet and
E-Services Report
There is an increasing awareness of technology in Malaysia. With
the Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) Project and the
government’s commitment to a technological society, a large
number of high tech companies from around the world have started
to set up in Malaysia. But efforts at encouraging the wider
community to embrace technology have so far not been totally
successful. Dial-up Internet access is growing steadily, but
there has been very little interest in broadband Internet. And
e-commerce activity can only be described as sluggish. This
report looks at the take-up of Internet and e-commerce in
Malaysia, some of the key players and where the market is likely
to go. Get the complete

Malaysia - Data and Broadband
Services Report
Malaysia has been heavily promoting itself as an Information
Technology hub in the Asia region. On the back of the Multimedia
Super Corridor (MSC) Project, high tech companies have been
setting up in Malaysia. But efforts by the government at
encouraging the wider community to embrace technology have so far
met with limited success. There has been surprisingly little
interest in broadband Internet, the national broadband
penetration being only slightly over 1% by early 2005. One bright
spot in the market has been WiFi, and service providers start to
rollout their ‘hotspot’ services. This report looks
at data services and the development of high-speed Internet
access in Malaysia. See summary.
Malaysia - Key
Telecommunications Statistics Overview and Report
Many of the players in Malaysia’s telecommunications
sector were seriously affected by the economic crisis of the late
1990s. Despite this, there has been strong growth in the sector
over the last decade. Fixed-line services jumped from around 2
million in 1990 to about 4.7 million in 2002, resulting in a
penetration approaching 20%. The mobile market has been more
spectacular, jumping from 3 million subscribers in 1999 to reach
14.5 million by end-2004 and it was continuing to grow at an
annual rate of about 25%. This report looks at that growth. It
also presents a view of the industry players and, in so doing,
notes that the market has probably moved into a major
consolidation phase. See summary.
Malaysia - Telecommunications
Infrastructure Report
The building of Malaysia’s telecommunications
infrastructure has seen extensive fibre optic networks installed
across the length and breadth of the country. This report
describes how the country has continued to allocate capital to
invest in information technology and telecommunications
infrastructure despite the setback of the economic crisis of the
late 1990s. A prime example has been the Multimedia Super
Corridor (MSC) project. No matter how difficult the economy
became, during this period the government continued to find
funding for this project. The end result has been the MSC
strategy appears to have come through the economic crisis
reasonably intact. See summary.
