Huawei Malaysia has formed artificial intelligence (AI) collaborations with local players to power e-commerce, logistics and smart government services in Malaysia.

The firm said in a statement on last Friday that four new strategic partnerships leveraging AI, cloud computing and next-generation digital infrastructure will assist in driving Malaysia’s digital innovation and ecosystem growth under memoranda of understandings (MoUs) signed on last Friday between Huawei Technologies (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd (Huawei Malaysia) and leading local industry players.

Exchanged before the Minister of Digital YB Gobind Singh Deo and Lan Tianli, Governor of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, These MoUs will deploy advanced AI and cloud solutions to transform e-commerce platforms, logistics networks, government services and digital infrastructure nationwide.

TOGL Technology Sdn Bhd (TOGL) will work with Huawei Malaysia to jointly develop an AI-powered e-commerce and loyalty platform, combining TOGL’s industry demand insights with Huawei’s AI platform and advanced technological solutions.

Skyvast Cloud Sdn Bhd (Skyvast) and Huawei Malaysia will jointly promote the Sovereign AI Cloud infrastructure using Huawei’s Ascend Graphic Processing Units (the first deployment outside the China market), Kunpeng servers, cloud platforms, and networking solutions.

In this collaboration, Skyvast will lead the business development, application use case insights and go-to-market strategies within Malaysia and ASEAN markets.

In the logistics space, Huawei Malaysia and Tiong Nam Logistics Solutions Sdn Bhd (Tiong Nam) will integrate AI and cloud technologies into warehousing and supply chain operations.

Tiong Nam will oversee the design, construction and operations of logistics technology solutions, supported by Huawei Malaysia’s cloud infrastructure and AI computing capabilities.

For government digital services, Huawei Malaysia’s three-way MoU with HeiTech Padu Berhad (HeiTech Padu) and MY E.G. Services (MyEG) will explore AI-driven digital services for government functions such as immigration and transportation.

As part of this collaboration, Huawei Malaysia will provide Huawei Cloud platforms, AI capabilities, private cloud infrastructure solutions as well as project implementation support.

Gobind Singh and Lan Tianli also witnessed the MoU exchanges
between Guilin University of Electronic Technology and Universiti Malaysia Pahang Al- Sultan Abdullah as well as Guangxi Minzu University and Tunku Abdul Rahman University.

These partnerships support Malaysia’s National AI Office’s (NAIO) strategy by accelerating AI adoption and advancing the nation’s digital transformation and aspirations to become a leading tech hub in Southeast Asia.

The exchange ceremony of the MoUs, held at the Pullman Kuala Lumpur City Centre, brought together key industry and academia leaders from Malaysia and China to formalize these strategic partnerships.

Founded in 1987, Huawei is a global provider of information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and smart devices.

The firm operates in more than 170 countries and regions.
