Swedish multinational networking and telecommunications company Ericsson has announced that Malaysia would become one of its 11 main manufacturing sites globally. Furthermore, our country will be its first Southeast Asian hub to produce cutting-edge 5G products to support global and local 5G rollouts.

Ericsson and Intel are set to collaborate on the development of 5G use cases that can accelerate digitisation in Malaysia. In a Memorandum of Undertaking (MoU) signed recently, both companies are seeking to spur 5G’s adoption by local enterprises.
