The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) is driving the modernisation of Kuala Lumpur’s infrastructure and public services, boosting efficiency and liveability.
Digital Minister Gobind Singh Deo observed firsthand the implementation of data-driven and AI-enabled smart city solutions, during a visit to the Kuala Lumpur City Hall’s (DBKL) KL Command & Control Centre (KLCCC) today.
Touching on Smart Nation 2030, he said it meant that Malaysia has to look at its current strengths and to look at the future.
He added that Malaysia needs to pinpoint the technologies needed to ensure it is ready for the future.
Gobind also said in efforts to be a Smart Nation, its readiness needs to take into account the power of new technology.
One of the key initiatives highlighted was DBKL’s development of a comprehensive digital twin of the city. This virtual replica enables real-time simulation and analysis of urban dynamics, supporting more effective planning, emergency response and resource management.
In addition, DBKL is advancing its digital transformation through its AI-powered traffic management system.
This solution leverages real-time camera feeds and intelligent analytics to monitor traffic conditions, detect incidents such as accidents or illegal parking and dynamically adjust traffic signals to improve flow at critical intersections.
