Fahmi in Doha: Two digital forums and a bid to keep Malaysia’s ITU seat

Malaysian Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil is set to attend two ministerial-level forums in Doha, Qatar, as part of his working visit to the city. The events, which take place at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Centre (DECC), include the Ministerial Panel at Mobile World Congress (MWC) Doha 2026: Digital Leadership Forum and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Plenipotentiary Conference (PP-26) Ministerial Roundtable.

Fahmi's participation in these forums is aimed at strengthening international cooperation in the development and future of the digital ecosystem. In addition to his forum engagements, Fahmi is leading the Malaysian delegation at the ITU PP-26, where he will attend the PP-26 Doha Ministerial Roundtable, which includes opening remarks, ministerial presentations, and a discussion session.

The conference will also feature the launch of the Doha Ministerial Declaration, a key agenda item. The ITU PP-26 is the organization's highest decision-making conference, held every four years to determine its direction, policies, and strategic plans. Malaysia, a member of ITU since 1958, is seeking to retain its seat on the ITU Council for the 2027-2030 term.
