PETALING JAYA: Users will be able to watch livestreams of the upcoming FIFA World Cup 2026 on the MyGOV Malaysia app.
In an announcement on Friday (June 5), the Digital Ministry said users registered with MyDigital ID can access live coverage through the app’s live-streaming feature.
"The MyGOV Malaysia app reflects the Madani Government’s continued efforts to improve how Malaysians access digital services. As usage continues to grow, the platform is being progressively enhanced to support scalability, performance, and user experience improvements," said Digital Minister Gobind Singh Deo.
MyGOV Malaysia was launched in 2025 as a unified platform app to consolidate various services from government agencies.
It now features 51 services from 19 government agencies, including Travel Restriction Status, Unclaimed Moneys and PriceCatcher, with a user base of more than 2.2 million.
Digital Ministry secretary-general Datuk Fabian Bigar said the app was designed to eliminate bureaucratic silos through enhanced data interoperability and unified public infrastructure.
He added that a connected government is a prerequisite for Malaysia's AI-driven future.
"By unifying fragmented agency platforms under the MyGOV ecosystem, we are building the clean, interoperable data foundations necessary to deploy scalable artificial intelligence.
"Our ultimate blueprint is to transition from reactive public services to predictive, highly personalised citizen experiences, firmly securing Malaysia’s trajectory toward becoming a leading AI Nation by 2030," he added.
The FIFA World Cup 2026 will take place from June 11 to July 19, with matches hosted across Mexico, Canada and the United States.
The Communications Ministry has announced RTM and Unifi TV as the official broadcasters for the World Cup in Malaysia.
