4.0 PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS AND PROJECT IN SUPER CORIDOR (MSC)

MULTIMEDIA

DEVELOPMENT

Even after it nearly 17 years of development projects and Strengthening ICT MSC has developed in Malaysia, the project is still seen a lot of weaknesses That need to be improved. To Ensure ICT project development and Strengthening of Successful full MSC BEFORE the Commencement of the year 2020, extract suggestions on improvements are explained from the four Corners to be seen to be understood very interested.

4.1 Degree of openness of the National Cultural Policy According to Michael Porter, one of the factors of a country's competitiveness is the value as well as the national culture. One of the ideas that will be implemented in the MSC is to invite the film industry in Hollywood to open a multimedia studio in Malaysia. It is a mystery how this idea can be achieved if the concert Michael Jackson had to go through 7

CBCT2203 many obstacles (although finally given permission) and the movie "Schindler's List" was banned.

4.2 Shortage Of Skilled Human Resources Although there are hundreds of student / student information technology graduates entering the job market every year, but the figures are far from sufficient to achieve full MSC. The government has taken steps to increase the number of information technology enrollment and approve the application of private colleges and universities to produce more graduates of information technology. If the shortage of skilled human resources cannot be resolved, it is expected the job market will be tight and the result is that the cost of human resources to be too expensive and will reduce the competitiveness of MSC.

4.3 Effectiveness Rating Without Borders We know that the MSC program and ICT course evaluated from time to time by a group of experts appointed by the government. To ensure that the assessment takes into account the needs of the community, it is better evaluation of the effectiveness of ICT MSC and this is done without boundaries. This means that the government should collect data related to the views and requirements of all segments of society based on the demographic diversity of the community itself. This is seen to be more effective where the government can obtain a lot of information from various sources about what needs to be good added value to the system and the development of MSC Malaysia ICT in the country.

4.4 Increased Security Systems And Threats We are Shocked by the attack Unauthorized access to the websites by government agencies and NGOs irresponsible group. Aggression is more in Fear When it Come from outside of Malaysia. This obviously concerns us Because of invasion of IT systems paralyzed cans Cause an organization system to Continue to Operate. This effect will also rates a negative view of Give Those who come from outside to use the system on our ICT for business and investment purposes. Hence to dramatically improved the development of MSC Malaysia ICT in the country, upgrading the safety system to Prevent Threats The annual invasion Should always be done to Ensure That All Parties Using MSC and ICT systems are always confident and Countries are also rates in Towards Achieving the right track its mission and vision 2020. All four Proposals were explained the need to explain things to Consider in improving the system and ICT development in the country's MSC Malaysia. Action and Implementation 8

CBCT2203 award Bring Should be made to the success of the MSC program and ICT cans be felt all walks of life.

5.0 CONCLUSION MSC development and Strengthening of ICAT is not new, but has long Been introduced in many Developed Countries The annual America and Europe. since the early 60s again.
