Favoriot Sembang Santai - Episode 57: Malaysia’s Smart City Investment Priorities

In this episode of Favoriot Sembang Santai, Zura Huzali and Dr. Mazlan Abbas discuss Malaysia’s Smart City investment priorities and ask a simple question: are we spending enough to understand how our infrastructure performs after it is built? The conversation covers physical infrastructure, digital connectivity, smart applications, Operational Blindness, pilot projects, lifecycle costs, interoperability and the role of AI. The key message is simple: a city does not become smart just because it has sensors, 5G, AI or dashboards. It becomes smarter when decision-makers can see what is happening, detect problems earlier and act at the right time. FAVORIOT | Connect • See • Act™
