Speaking to reporters, Musa said that PEDi, rebranded from existing community internet centres, is expected to be launched throughout the country in areas which do not have the facility yet.
He added that while previously the broadband network was only used for communication, the facility was now made available by the government to transform lives, including increasing people's income through online marketing of village products.
The Malaysian minister said a good education could change lives, and therefore it was important to help students through the extension of data aid, gadgets and other internet-related learning facilities with the participation of private companies.
