JOHOR BARU: A total of 186 new Keluarga Malaysia Digital Economic Centres (PEDi) will be introduced nationwide this year to increase the level of internet literacy in the public, especially in rural areas, says Fahmi Fadzil.
The Communications and Digital Minister said the ministry will also be expanding its target audience to include housewives and youths to expose them to the benefits that PEDi can offer, especially in the digital economy.
He said this when met by reporters after attending an aid hand-out programme for flood victims in Tiram at Dewanraya Kampung Sungai Tiram here on Monday . “Some of the businesses are still in recovery mode, and we have also recently been affected by the flood, so I believe that the fastest way we can improve and get back up is through the digital economy.
