Malaysia's communications minister holds Doha talks ahead of ITU conference

DOHA — Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil has begun a series of meetings with members of the Malaysian diaspora and key players from the telecommunications sector during a visit to Qatar ahead of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) conference.

The minister's itinerary includes discussions with the Malaysian community in Doha and senior telecommunications industry representatives, part of broader diplomatic and industry engagement efforts ahead of the ITU gathering.

These discussions are expected to cover telecommunications policy developments, sectoral opportunities, and Malaysia's positioning at the international conference. The engagements reflect efforts to coordinate between government, industry stakeholders, and the Malaysian expatriate community on digital communications issues.

Fahmi's visit underscores Malaysia's commitment to active participation in global telecommunications governance and maintaining strong ties with diaspora communities. The meetings precede formal ITU conference sessions where Malaysia will engage with international delegates on regulatory and technological matters affecting the regional telecommunications landscape.
