The MSC is being planned as a high-technology center where world-class multimedia companies can develop state-of-the-art products and services. Since Malaysia is undergoing a change from an industrial to information age, the MSC will guide the country in identifying how to use multimedia services in an efficient and competitive manner and will serve as a springboard for regional and global multimedia markets. This paper uses Malaysia as a case study to describe some challenges associated with the development of smart city mega-projects and to analyze the implications for librarians and information professionals.

  • Questioning Public Art
    Eco-Architecture IV 103 Questioning public art M. Mustafa, M. Begum, A. Backer & J. Dollah School of the Arts, Universiti Sains, Malaysia Abstract Public art in Malaysia has received a mixed reception because of the confusion over its multi-faceted role and aspects of the practice. This confusion is exacerbated by the fact that public art itself is a new term in the Malaysian art scene. It is sometimes seen as a manifestation based on political and cultural aspirations that intersect with the city’s beautification efforts which celebrate perfection based on wished for imagery. Fundamentally, this paper focuses on the role of public art which draw together artists, theorists, curators and arts administrators whose work engages with issues relevant to social and cultural life. Keywords: public art, role, identity, Design Urban Guideline (DUD), Putrajaya, Malaysia, Modern Islamic concept, ‘Garden City concept’. 1 Introduction The study of public art in Malaysia is relatively new. Nevertheless, this study seeks to give an insight into the various roles of public art especially to the creation and development of Malaysia’s administrative city – Putrajaya, conceptually and aesthetically. The methodology employed in the analysis of the mapping of the city is based on two main factors; firstly, the Design Urban Guideline and secondly, the Intelligent Garden City concept as the existing theoretical framework. Public art in Malaysia is believed to be developed to commemorate an exercise in national celebration where the core framework was designed with utopian ideals in mind. The new administrative city like the Putrajaya for example, uses public art as part its core design.

  • Create Or Nurture? Lessons from Cyberjaya: Malaysia's Promised
    Policy Ideas № 50 July 2018 Create or Nurture? Lessons from Cyberjaya: Malaysia’s Promised Silicon Valley Ali Salman Introduction Agglomeration economies, geographical concentration of firms and clusters, have become recurring and prominent themes in modern industrial policies. These geographical concentrations serve a wide range of purposes: from low cost production centers to high tech innovation hubs. These special zones or corridors may be linked with an export market or with a domestic market. Regardless of the purpose and linkage, the zones feature in all industrial policies. Given the relatively high degree of success which certain clusters have enjoyed, the industrial policy in developing countries aspires to replicate this feature of geographical concentration of firms. The outcome of replication is a heavily contested topic in the literature and the present essay will hopefully make a small contribution to this literature. The main motivation is to study the role of government in the design and success of an industrial policy by analyzing industrial clusters. The overarching question is whether the government should create a cluster from scratch or nurture an existing one? The setting is an industrial and innovation cluster called Cyberjaya in Malaysia, which is one of the 25 most competitive economies in the world as ranked by the World Economic Forum and is ranked amongst the top 25 countries in terms of ease of doing business by the World Bank. Historically, Malaysia is considered a successful example of an active and deliberate industrial policy, which has helped in making this country one of the top manufacturing hubs for electric and electronic goods, including semi-conductors.

This paper discusses the critical connections among knowledge‐based urban development strategies, knowledge‐intensive industries and information and communication technology infrastructures. In particular, the research focuses on investigating the application of the knowledge‐ based urban development concept by discussing one of the South East Asia’s large scale knowledge‐based urban development manifestations of Malaysia’s Multimedia Super Corridor. The paper scrutinises Malaysia’s experience in the development and evolution of the Multimedia Super Corridor from the angle of knowledge‐based urban development policy implementation, infrastructural implications, and actors involved in its development and management.

  • Tenth Malaysia Plan, 2011-2015 52
    10th Malaysia Plan iii MALAYSIA TENTH MALAYSIA PLAN 2011-2015 Published by THE ECONOMIC PLANNING UNIT PRIME MINISTER’S DEPARTMENT PUTRAJAYA 2010 10th Malaysia Plan iii Prime Minister Malaysia Foreword The Tenth Malaysian Plan sets another historical milestone as our nation embarks on an important mission towards a progressive and high-income nation, as envisioned in Vision 2020. We have achieved great strides in economic and social development in the past 53 years of nation building, but today we face a different dimension of new challenges. We can no longer rely on past strategies and approaches that had previously driven our economic growth. Malaysia needs a new approach, a new enthusiasm and a new determination driven by the 1Malaysia spirit, to propel Malaysia into the next level of high growth. The Tenth Malaysia Plan houses the aspirations of both the Government Transformation Programme and the New Economic Model, premised on high income, inclusiveness and sustainability. It charts the development of the nation for the next five years, anchored on delivering the desired outcomes for all Malaysians. The Tenth Plan sets the stage for a major structural transformation that a high-income economy requires. The Plan contains new policy directions, strategies and programmes that enable the country to emerge as a high income nation. The national development programmes are attuned to the six National Key Results Areas, outlined in the Government Transformation Programme, the National Key Economic Areas of the Economic Transformation Programme and the strategic economic reforms in the New Economic Model. The Plan details strategies towards a more focused role for the Government as a regulator and catalyst while upholding the principles of 1Malaysia: People First, Performance Now to ensure effective delivery of services.
