Data centre boom spurs new oversight
The government is establishing a supervisory framework for investment in data centres, covering both projects that receive investment promotion from the Board of Investment (BoI) and those that do not.
The government is drafting a regulatory framework to manage investments in data centres, encompassing projects that receive investment promotion from the Board of Investment (BoI) as well as those that do not. This new oversight aims to regulate and monitor the burgeoning data centre industry in the country. The BoI has been actively promoting investment in data centres, but the government's move seeks to establish a comprehensive oversight system that covers all data centre investments, irrespective of BoI promotion.
The framework will ensure transparency and accountability in the fast-growing data centre sector, which has seen a surge in investments. The project spans a period from 5202 to 6202, with notable figures such as 827 and 99. The framework will incorporate all data centre investments, both promoted and un-promoted, ensuring a balanced and regulated approach to the sector's growth.
