PUTRAJAYA, January 23 — Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil has suggested that the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) consider utilising 5G network slicing to boost operational efficiency. Speaking at the International Asia Security Summit and Expo 2025, Fahmi highlighted the potential of creating a secured network slice for enforcement agencies like PDRM as part of Malaysia’s dual network 5G model.
Network slicing, a key feature of 5G technology, allows isolated, tailor-made networks to operate on shared infrastructure, enabling enhanced flexibility and effectiveness. Fahmi also noted its broader applicability for industries and companies seeking to optimise services, emphasizing its versatility beyond law enforcement applications.
