Big tech continues to spend big on Southeast Asia, with Malaysia landing a multi-billion dollar investment from Google just weeks after Microsoft pledged to spend $2.2 billion towards the country's tech sector.
On Thursday, Google committed to investing $2 billion in Malaysia, including developing a data center and cloud facility. The investment, Google's largest so far in Malaysia, is expected to support 26,500 jobs and add up to $3.2 billion to the economy, according to Bernama, the country's state news agency.
