MCMC offers free money to small businesses, few takers


CYBERJAYA: Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has offered a RM50mil grant for 50,000 eligible small and medium-sized businesses to set up websites but less than 7,000 have taken advantage of the grant since it was launched in Jan 2013.

Meant for companies earning not more than RM200,000 a year and with less than 10 employees, the RM1,000 Get Malaysian Business Online (GMBO) grant is aimed at giving local businesses an online presence, boosting their services in the process.
