The company stated in a speech that this is the start of TM’s strategic plan to develop its system ecosystem and make Malaysia a desired online gateway in Southeast Asia, keeping with its 2030 goal to become a Digital Powerhouse. These developments, along with TM’s collaboration with Nxera to develop a novel, hyperconnected, AI-ready information center, lay the foundation for online services such as fog, advanced analytics, unnatural intelligence, and the Internet of Things.
The second phase of both KVDC and IPDC will have a combined IT weight of about 20MW when business activities are scheduled for 2025. The expansion will meet Uptime Institute’s Tier-II I standards and the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design ( LEED ) Silver rating for long-term sustainability, a globally recognised green building certification.

This next phase of our data centre development will have lasting designs, boosting our capacity to support hyperscalers, OTT players, fog and next-generation AI providers, as well as enterprises”.
