About

MDEC was established in 1996 as the lead agency to implement the MSC Malaysia initiative.

Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC), a government​ agency under the purview of the Ministry of Communications and​ Digital, was established in 1996 to lead Malaysia’s digital economy.​ Beginning with the implementation of the MSC Malaysia initiative,​ we have since then catalysed digital transformation and growth​ all over the nation. By offering greater incentives and governance​ for growth and re-investment, we aspire to bolster Malaysia’s​ status as the digital hub of ASEAN, opening new doors and​ driving shared prosperity for all Malaysians.​

Malaysia’s central geographical location in ASEAN, its young & digitally-savvy population, multicultural & multilingual tapestry, easy access to capital & regional markets, ease of doing business, certainty of business operating environment and legal system, comparative value and high standard of living, makes it the natural choice to land and grow your digital business here.​
