Followed by the recent tabling and passing of RUU 668 which amends the definition of youths under Registrar of Youth (ROY) from 40 to 30 years old, the Melaka government expresses its support for the move by the Youth and Sports Ministry. There has been lengthy debates on whether the move was necessary among youth bodies since the previous government. This means that this is a youth issue beyond politics and should be supported by those who want to see reforms in our national

Jumlah peruntukan sebanyak RM7.6 juta telah diperuntukkan untuk tujuan naik taraf Kompleks Belia dan Sukan Ayer Keroh Melaka. Saya sering menerima aduan tentang keusangan fasiliti sukan di negeri Melaka. Pemantauan atas fasiliti sukan juga sering dijalankan oleh pasukan saya dari Jabatan Belia dan Sukan Negeri Melaka, Perbadanan Stadium Melaka serta Majlis Sukan Negeri. Dalam sesi perbincangan dengan persatuan-persatuan sukan di negeri Melaka, isu-isu keperluan untuk naiktara

The importance of internet has risen exponentially throughout the years. Internet connectivity is no longer a matter of providing leisure and convenience to us – it has also become an important enabler in various industries, including banking, e-commerce, technology, education, medical etc. The availability and quality of internet in an area could very well decide the socio-economic development of the area. It is hence of paramount importance for not just the government but a

Today, a collaboration took place between UTeM, MMU, Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), Telekom Malaysia (TM) and Jabatan Belia dan Sukan Melaka (JBS). We have officially formed a platform named the Melaka Artificial Intelligence of Things (MAIoT). Internet of things (IoT) is no longer something we are unfamiliar with. We understand what IoT can do to our lives, where important data can be gathered via innovative ways, enhancing not just our everyday h

您居住的地方手机讯号很弱，上网总是断下断下，该怎么解决？ 简单来说，需要增加/加强通讯设备 a.k.a. 电讯塔。 ​​我在上个月宣布了，从2018年12月起规划，马六甲州政府准备在2019年增建/提升100座电讯塔。100这数字怎么来的？这要说说马六甲州通讯部门的一点点故事。 100座电讯塔这数字并非信手拈来。 通常政府和电讯公司会在几种情况下花钱建电讯塔：当某地区有足够的用户向电讯公司做出投诉或要求、当电讯公司作出商业决定在某地区增加讯号强度/覆盖率、或当政府机构认为加强某地区的覆盖率可造福当地居民（即使需求量不大，不足以让电讯公司花钱建设）。 在人口越来越多，越来越密集，每个人手机网路使用量越来越高的年代，电讯塔的需求也就越来越多。 对马六甲而言，综合需求量，我们每年需要增建/升级大约80-100座电讯塔（升级指的是用光纤为电讯塔输送资料）。 在2015至2017年，马六甲平均每年只起了30座。在2018年的1月至4月，马六甲州只起了6座电讯塔。 当中的因素很多，包括州政府子公司的内部操作，土地局、地方政府、通讯部等各部门批准的复杂性，还有

Poor mobile coverage at your area? How do we solve it? A simple answer to that is: Increasing/upgrading telecommunication infrastructure a.k.a. telco towers. ​ ​Last month, I announced that the Melaka government is prepared to build & upgrade 100 telco towers in 2019. I did not just come up with the number 100 by myself. Before I continue, let's talk about the current situation in Melaka and how our telco sector operates. ​​ There are a few reasons for telco companies / govt

Don’t get me wrong. It’s never in the Pakatan Harapan government’s wishlist to reduce the number of civil servants. At the very least, we are not dismissing any civil servant for the sake of reducing their numbers. However, 4 months into administration, I have no reservation in opining that the way forward in reforming how our government works is to make governance work. It’s true that Pakatan Harapan has been voted in as the federal government, as well as the state governmen
