A global communications campaign, titled “Malaysia: Bouncing Back even Better than Before”, was launched yesterday to help communicate to the world Malaysia’s determination to put the country back on track and move forward again after its historic General Election victory four months ago.

This new Malaysian image-improving multimedia campaign was launched first on social media over the past weekend, to be followed on international television early this week and print starting with a full-page ad in The New York Times this Friday the 28th of September when the Prime Minister delivers his UN General Assembly address in New York.

Two IoT (Internet-of-Things) and robotics-enabled experimental projects which focused on boosting production in the agricultural sector in the country were among the MSC Malaysia APICTA award-winning entries recognised at the PIKOM ICT Awards event.
