Digital Talents – Reality Bites

There’s a huge hunger among Malaysian companies in seeking to hire digital talent to strengthen their operations.

However, a 2021 Digital Talent survey report by the Strategic Change Management Office, Economic Planning Unit (SCMO EPU) and the Social & Economic Research Initiative (SERI) found that the top two obstacles to having adequate and sufficient digital talent were skills gaps in the local labour market and inability to attract specialised talent. These are not new issues, so why can’t we tackle them?
