6 October 2026 – MyDIGITAL Corporation participated in ASEAN Youth: Conversation, Debate and Quiz 2026 at Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang, represented by our Senior Director, Ellina Roslan.
Speaking in the session “Endeavouring to Bridge Physical and Digital Gaps”, she highlighted the importance of Access, Capability and Opportunity in helping young people benefit meaningfully from digital connectivity.
Connectivity can open doors to learning and regional collaboration. Turning those connections into opportunities also requires skills, confidence and practical ways to participate.
This aligns with Malaysia’s direction under MD2030, strengthening inclusive digital participation and enabling more Malaysians to create solutions that address real needs.
For ASEAN youth, collaboration can begin with a shared local challenge. Working with peers across borders offers a chance to exchange perspectives, test ideas and build something useful for their communities.
Thank you to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Universiti Sains Malaysia and ASEAN Youth Organisation for the opportunity to contribute to this conversation.
