Kuala Lumpur: Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry (Miti) Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz will hold a meeting with Satya Nadella, the chairman and chief executive officer (CEO) of Microsoft, to devise a strategy to make Malaysia the digital hub of Asean.

“The ‘Kekal Bersama Malaysia’ initiative is witnessing a collaboration between Malaysia and Microsoft to make our country the digital hub of Asean,” said Tengku Zafrul through a post on his X account today. He added that Satya will visit the country soon to strengthen the collaboration.

“Looking forward to closer collaboration with Microsoft to drive Malaysia’s leadership in the Asean digital sphere,” Tengku Zafrul said.

Satya succeeded Steve Ballmer in 2014 as CEO and John W. Thompson in 2021 as the multinational technology company’s chairman.

Satya is scheduled to deliver an opening keynote address on the new era of artificial intelligence (AI) at ‘Microsoft Build: AI Day’ at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre on March 20, 2024.
