Strengthening the role of rural Digital Economy Centres (PEDIs).

In Malaysia, there are currently 911 Pusat Ekonomi Digital  or Digital Economy Centres (PEDIs) in the country hosting training sessions on how to venture into e-commerce, benefiting 18.9 million Malaysians with their usage.

An allocation of RM25 million will be used to strengthen the PEDI initiative in each State Legislative Assembly to support SMEs and entrepreneurs to sell products online, especially if you’re based in rural areas  

Initially launched to grant broadband access to rural Malaysians, these centres have since become digital economic centres, offering courses on e-commerce and digitalisation. These are provided by government agencies such as the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC), the Human Resource Development Fund (HRDF), the Ministry of Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives (MEDAC) and SME Corp.  

Technology and innovation grants and funding

To further develop a Madani economic growth model led by research, development, commercialisation, and innovation (R&D&C&I) activities, you can claim grants and funding for research and innovation.

The Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI) and the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) set aside RM510 million for research and development funding. Among the funds provided by the two ministries are:

• Among these funds, RM50 million is specifically allocated as matching grants for public universities collaborating with businesses to enhance research and innovation activities that can be commercialised.
• Another RM76 million has also been allocated to strengthen the R&D&C&I ecosystem by offering support funds for commercialising products created by business enterprises, non-government organisations (NGOs), government departments, and agencies.

You can also apply for sector-specific funds from related government agencies to fund your innovation. You can benefit from the total of RM10 million allocated from various agencies if you’re operating in the following sectors:

• Electric and Electronic (E&E) technology sector from the Malaysian Institute of Microelectronic Systems (MIMOS), 
• Aerospace sector under the Malaysian Space Agency (MYSA), 
• Drone and robotics technology under the Malaysian Research Accelerator for Technology & Innovation (MRANTI).

Free courses provided by e-commerce platforms

Free courses are also provided by private companies such as Shopee and AEON on running an online business through e-commerce platforms, product marketability, branding strategies, marketing, packing and more. 

More importantly, PEDI centres have also encouraged rural SMEs to expand their business overseas through e-commerce. One example would be Naqik Cookies in Klebang Besar, Melaka, which has now ventured to Singapore and doubled its revenue . According to owner Nabihah Karim, PEDI provides a learning platform for online marketing and how to increase sales through free e-commerce courses and marketing webinars.

Another way to expand your business overseas through e-commerce is to look into the Lazada Global and Shopee International Platform programmes. These programmes could be your avenue to cater to a regional market through cross-border e-commerce to customers in countries like Taiwan, the Philippines and Singapore.
