Niaga SPOTLIGHT: Malaysia's AI Talent Opportunity

Amid ongoing job losses and new AI powered roles, there is an immense opportunity for Malaysia to build the workforce needed to support its ambitions in semiconductors, advanced manufacturing, digital services and the green economy.
42,807 Malaysians have already lost their jobs this year. At the same time, TalentCorp estimates that up to 697,000 jobs could be significantly affected by AI, digitalisation and the green economy over the next three to five years without urgent up skilling.

Meanwhile, employers continue to struggle to fill critical roles, with more than 605,000 vacancies advertised through MYFutureJobs this year.

Tehmina Kaoosji speaks to Biruntha Mooruthi, Group CEO of TalentCorp, on seizing the opportunity to close Malaysia's skills and critical roles gap, strengthen the national talent pipeline and keep the country competitive in a rapidly changing economy.
