KUALA LUMPUR: All stakeholders from various sectors are invited to contribute their feedback on the Draft Final Report of the Market Review on the Digital Economy Ecosystem.
In a statement, the Malaysia Competition Commission (MyCC) said the strategic review thoroughly analyses five key areas identified as fundamental to Malaysia's digital economy growth and development.
"The areas are mobile operating and payment systems, e-commerce (retail marketplace), digital advertising services, online travel agencies (OTAs), and data privacy and protection,” it said.
MyCC presented the findings from its comprehensive market study after holding a public consultation session with industry players on Aug 19 and a subsequent session with representatives from ministries and government agencies the next day.
The study highlights key competition issues, structural challenges within the market and critical policy considerations to strengthen the nation’s digital economy ecosystem.
During the sessions, MyCC also shared preliminary recommendations which will serve as the foundation for future policy development towards building a fairer, more innovative and competitive digital ecosystem in Malaysia.
"MyCC calls all stakeholders across sectors to provide their feedback on the preliminary recommendations contained in the final draft.
"This critical input will ensure our proposed framework reflects diverse perspectives from regulators, industry participants and the public, ultimately strengthening Malaysia's digital economy landscape,” it said.
MyCC said all submissions must be received by Sept 14 to be incorporated before the study's finalisation in December 2025. - Bernama
