US Federal Communications Commission chairman Ajit Pai says people must benefit not only from a strong network, but also a secure one.
He said the country must have an independent judiciary and intelligence laws that required secret compliance from sources, while the equipment was free from “bugs and potential backdoors”. “That is the best way we think, to make sure the people in your country benefit, not just from strong, but also safe and secure networks,” he told reporters after meeting stakeholders from both the private and public sector, including his counterpart Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission chairman Al-Ishal Ishak.
In April, Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad said 5G technology was poised to be the cornerstone of Malaysia’s march into the new age and a vital foundation for the country to remain relevant and competitive. Pai said that both the US and Malaysia were confronting similar concerns apart from ones related to security.
