Government analysis projects that over 30% of Malaysian jobs will be impacted by AI in the next decade, particularly in manufacturing, services, and IT. Science, Technology, and Innovation Minister Chang Lih Kang emphasizes the need for 600,000 workers to reskill within 3-5 years. By 2030, an additional 500,000 skilled workers are projected to be needed in technology and technical sectors. The government is actively aligning training programs with Industry 4.0 standards, including cybersecurity, smart systems management, and data analytics, to bridge the skills gap and maintain competitiveness.
: Government analysis shows that more than 30 per cent of jobs in Malaysia will be affected by artificial intelligence in the next 10 years, with key sectors such as manufacturing, services, and information technology expected to undergo significant transformation, said Science, Technology, and Innovation Minister Chang Lih Kang.
Chang said Malaysia’s workforce must be prepared to face these changes as reskilling and upskilling processes become crucial, especially in technology and technical fields, so that Malaysia can remain competitive globally and meet the growing demands of the industry. For this purpose, MBOT established the Technology and Technical Professional Development Council to develop a comprehensive quality assurance framework and certification for short-term courses in technology and technical fields while addressing the growing industry demand for a highly skilled workforce.
