MTSFB Contributes to Regional Standardisation Efforts at APT ASTAP-38

  • 20-24 April 2026
  • Bangkok, Thailand

How is the Asia-Pacific region advancing the future of AI and emerging technology standards? This question took centre stage at the Asia-Pacific Telecommunity (APT) ASTAP-38 Meeting and Industry Day Workshop, where MTSFB joined regional stakeholders in progressing standardisation initiatives across key technology domains.

Industry Day Workshop: Focus on AI and Emerging Technologies

Held on 20 April 2026, the Industry Day Workshop highlighted developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and emerging technologies.

Dr. Azizul Azizan, Secretary of the AI Task Force, presented the MTSFB Framework for AI Technical Standardization in the Physical AI Era, outlining Malaysia’s approach to structured and forward-looking AI standards.

Prof. Dr. Shahrulniza Musa, Chair of the Standards and Technology Planning (STP) Working Group, shared insights on accelerating technology adoption through Malaysia’s MyTMAP2030 Standards Framework, emphasising the role of standards in enabling national digital transformation.

ASTAP-38 Forum: Advancing Key Work Items

During the ASTAP-38 Forum from 21 to 24 April 2026, MTSFB contributed to several important initiatives:

  • The Guideline for Internet of Things Functional Safety Requirements, presented by Prof. Dr. Shahrulniza Musa, was successfully advanced and accepted as a new work item under the Expert Group on IoT and Smart Sustainable Cities (EG IOT&SSC).
  • The Draft Revision of APT Report 43 on Green Data Centre Practices and Climate Resilience, presented by En. Muhammad Suhaimi Ithnin, received approval during the closing plenary, marking a significant step towards more sustainable digital infrastructure practices in the region.

 

Strengthening Regional Collaboration

These outcomes reflect Malaysia’s continued leadership in promoting forward-looking, inclusive, and sustainable standards across the Asia-Pacific region.

MTSFB remains committed to strengthening regional collaboration and supporting the development of standards that enable a resilient and future-ready digital ecosystem.
