LANGKAWI (Jan 20): Malaysia can achieve the objective of being a developed country earlier than 2030 if it applies 5G technology properly for development, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said today.

The prime minister said the vision can be attained by 2025 perhaps.

Malaysia can be better administered with 5G technology because it enables productivity increases as the people can make choices faster and more accurately, he told a press conference.
