In a post on X, Anwar said the company had conveyed its intentions during a courtesy visit on Nov 6 by founder, chairman and chief executive officer Jihan Wu and his delegation. He attributed its interest to confidence in the MADANI Government’s policies and approach to digital transformation.
Anwar said he stressed that the investment must generate employment and offer training to build Malaysian expertise, particularly in AI, engineering and advanced computing.
He added that the government would facilitate strategic investments of this kind so that digital economy growth supports local industries and provides Malaysians with more high-value jobs.
