The i-City smart city project in Selangor is a good role model that others should try to emulate, according to Datuk Teng Chang Khim, Selangor state executive councillor for industry and trade.
Teng said he was pleased with i-City's progress since its inception in 2005.
"I first encountered i-City when I was representing the squatters here. I am very proud of the development's success over the years, and I believe it will undoubtedly position Selangor as a major player in the development of digitalisation.
i-City is partnering with Huawei Enterprise Malaysia (Huawei) to realise a next-generation smart city for Malaysia’s No. 1 Technology City – converging smart infrastructure and solutions, as well as property technology (PropTech).
Through the partnership, i-City – with its existing capabilities as a smart city – will explore cutting-edge technologies, such as autonomous vehicles, smarter traffic management, greater governance as well as a safer and more secure community.
