Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation
(MDEC), previously known as Multimedia
Development Corporation (MDeC), was
incorporated in 1996 to strategically
advise the Malaysian government on
legislation, policies and standards for ICT
and multimedia operations as well as to
oversee the development of the Malay-
sian Multimedia Super Corridor (now MSC
Malaysia), the platform to nurture the
growth of Malaysian Small and Medium
Enterprises (SMEs) in the IT industry whilst
attracting participation from global ICT
companies to invest in and develop
cutting edge digital and creative solutions
in Malaysia.
In 2011, MDEC’s mandate was broadened
by the Prime Minister to include driving
Malaysia’s transition towards a developed
digital economy by 2020 through Digital
Malaysia. In 2012, Digital Malaysia was
officially unveiled as the nation’s transfor-
mational programme to achieve this aim.
Digital Malaysia is the national agenda
towards a sustainable digital economy
built upon a vibrant domestic ICT industry,
transformative use of digital solutions by
government, businesses and citizens, as
well as a robust enabling ecosystem.
Today, both MSC Malaysia and Digital
Malaysia run concurrently to spur Malay-
sia’s ICT industry development and digital
transformation, under the purview of
MDEC.
