DCs — too much of a good thing?

Medhini Group Sdn Bhd founder and CEO Joel William says strategic planning and sustainable practices can help ensure that DCs contribute positively without overshadowing other critical industries vital for Malaysia's long-term prosperity and harmonised with the needs of its people and the environment.

WHILE the rapid growth of data centres (DCs) in an increasingly digital world is well and good, Malaysia must tread carefully, as too much of it could lead to negative consequences.

The rapid proliferation of DCs poses significant challenges that could hinder sustainable growth and economic diversification.
