  wong KUALA LUMPUR (July 29): The Ministry of Communications and Multimedia (KKMM), via its agency Malaysia Digital Economy Corp (MDEC), will be working closely with the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) to partner with more tech companies such as Acestar, AWS, Cisco Academy, Microsoft, Oracle, Quandatics, and SAS Institute to create digitally-skilled faculty experts and graduates. In a statement, MDEC said as part of its commitment to ensuring industry-relevant curriculum delivery at all MDEC’s Premier Digital Tech Institutions (PDTIs) and Data Partner Universities, MDEC will be working closely with more technology partners to expand its Digital Tech Faculty Expert (DTeX) programme. It said the partnership will allow the tech partners to contribute to growth of industry-ready skills required in the workforce that is critical to meet the industry’s current and future demand. MDEC said the DTeX initiative was started in 2019 and to date it had garnered the support of eight technology companies which had collectively trained 370 lecturers. It said for this year, DTeX 2020 is in line with MDEC’s objective to create a pool of digital experts among PDTI faculty members for more sustainable and scalable ways to equip tertiary-level students with industry-relevant skills. MDEC said DTeX 2020 aims to continue strengthening the quality of teaching and learning in PDTIs and Data Partner Universities via the creation of a pool of digital tech subject matter experts among faculty members. MDEC added that it is now calling for more tech partners to come forward and work together to build a sustainable and quality digital tech talent pipeline, hence accelerating the digital economy forward. The latest line-up of technology partners will be conducting Train-the-Trainer programmes for PDTI lecturers in a range of in-demand tech solutions and skills, it said. MDEC vice-president for digital talent development Dr Sumitra Nair said MDEC had a strong focus on creating digitally-skilled Malaysians across the talent life cycle. The DTeX 2020 initiative kicked off in May this year with lecturers from 23 institutions of higher learning, inclusive of 16 PDTIs. We are targeting a total of 200 lecturers to be trained over the next five months, who will then integrate their skills into their classes at their respective institutions, potentially impacting about 2,000 students. This will help to produce more job-ready graduates,” she said. Sumitra said the initiative is meant to help Malaysians make that digital leap in the area of Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0) jobs, while establishing Malaysia as a designated hub for talent and the best location for businesses to invest and grow. Malaysia must make the digital leap and embrace the concept of living and working in the era of IR 4.0 to drive shared prosperity and reinforce the country's role as the heart of a digital Asean. 30/07/2020 5:37 PM MaYun EPF bought more than 128 million shares since Jan 2020, lets assume the average buying price is 3.50, that is equivalent to a whooping 450 million ringgit Wow, base on today closing price of 3.20, that would be close to a 36 million ringgit loss on paper ... phew... 30/07/2020 9:22 PM Jeffreyteck Without epf, it worth 1.50 by now.

AXIATA is a good company, very well managed, unfortunately the timing is bad, it will only rebound in 2021. Why let money sit and do nothing? Semiconductor is on an uptrend. Here are 5 other long term tech stocks to own due to their growth potential. Do add them to your existing portfolio. Thank you.

"Axiata has just secured the lowest-ever coupon rate as an Aian corporate after getting a landmark US 1.5Billion issuance " This must be for a big project deployment like the 5G technology & beyond, corporate has to spend money for projects to keep up with technologies to secure future earning. If she get loan at the lowest ever rate and invest into technology development & future trending, it cannot be wrong, at the same time, you need to have the patience and be a long term investor to see your money grows I will follow EPF foot step, she has been on buying spree.... ; ) 14/08/2020 9:18 AM 14/08/2020 9:42 AM MaYun I believe when the dust get settled and foreign investors are backed ,this counter is gonna be the darling of fund managers, however, must be provided that loan fund is being managed properly for the intended projects. 14/08/2020 9:52 AM ray81 I think Patience is the key for this stock.

June Q 2018 and Dec Q 2018 losses easily written off many past and future quarters profit. Risk of another massive write off is unknown, that is luck as normal investors won't know until results disclosed. Poor EPF as averaging down seems is the best strategy without cash limitations. 13/09/2020 3:47 PM MadameTan sold my RM 3 batches for 3.12 and RM3.15 batches for 3.20 , negligible gain which is slightly better than fixed deposit.
