HAVING confirmed that implementation of the multi-billion ringgit National Digital Infrastructure Plan (Jendela) has met its target for 2020, Communications and Multimedia Minister Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah must now ensure that strategies and mechanisms for the next phase in 2021 and beyond are continuously and adequately monitored.
Despite the Covid-19 pandemic where priority is being given to public health and the economy, the government has nevertheless pressed ahead with the Jendela project to boost digital transformation in the country. This fantastic effort should not be interrupted under any circumstances, as completion of the project will elevate the country onto the next stage of national development.
