Written By Aizat Sultan

MALAYSIA reinforces its leadership in regional technology policy by hosting the inaugural ASEAN AI Malaysia Summit 2025 (AAIMS25), unveiling a series of initiatives aimed at driving responsible artificial intelligence (AI) adoption across South-East Asia.

ASEAN secretary general Dr Kao Kim Hourn commended Malaysia for convening the first summit, noting that the ASEAN digital economy could reach US$1 trillion (RM4.24 trillion) by 2030 and potentially double if supported by a robust AI framework.
