The Malaysian government, in collaboration with Arm Limited, has granted two local firms, Oppstar Technology and Alphaswift Industries, access to Arm's advanced computing technologies. This strategic partnership aims to bolster Malaysia's homegrown semiconductor design ecosystem and reduce the country's reliance on established strengths in assembly, packaging, and testing.

The technologies, including Arm Compute Subsystem (CSS) and Arm Flexible Access (AFA) programmes, will support various applications, from drones to advanced microelectronics, as Malaysia seeks to capture a larger share of the higher-value segments in the global semiconductor industry.
