As Sarawak accelerates its smart city transformation and carbon reduction efforts, digital safety has become a central pillar. By fusing cybersecurity with low-carbon development, the state strengthens trust and resilience in its green digital future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CyberSarawak and Digital Awareness<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response to growing cyber risks, the Sarawak Multimedia Authority (SMA) introduced CyberSarawak<\/strong> in 2024 to fortify digital trust through education, incident handling, and secure infrastructure. The initiative promotes three core themes: \u201cStay Safe, Stay Smart, Stay Secure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

Every milestone brings Sarawak closer to a secure, low-carbon future. Here’s how we’re building it, year after year.\nBe part of the transformation today<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Workshops across the state aim to raise awareness, especially among youth and small businesses. These efforts accompany a statewide rollout of cybersecurity advisory teams offering support on compliance, threat detection, and system recovery\u2014critical in protecting smart transport, utilities, and data platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital Infrastructure Supports Sustainability<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of its digital leap, Sarawak is closing internet gaps across regions. The construction of 7,000 telecommunications towers is underway to improve connectivity, with 587 5G sites targeted for activation by 2024<\/strong>. This infrastructure is the backbone of low-carbon smart initiatives, from electric public transport to climate monitoring systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainability Blueprint and Green Policy Moves<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sarawak became Malaysia\u2019s first state to enact a carbon emission control law<\/strong> in 2023, legally binding its net-zero ambitions. Its Sustainability Blueprint 2030<\/strong> outlines 10 focus areas\u2014such as sustainable mobility, digital governance, and renewable energy\u2014and over 100 action items to guide implementation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
