The company highlighted its expertise in digital infrastructure, systems integration, and government technology solutions as potential assets for the project. HeiTech's interest stems from previous engagements with Myanmar stakeholders, including talks with Diamond Palace Group in 2024 and renewed discussions in September and October this year. CEO Syed Omar Albar Syed Abdullah emphasized that the engagement marks a crucial step in exploring opportunities in Myanmar, noting the company's proven track record in delivering mission-critical technology solutions in Malaysia. HeiTech sees potential in applying its technology expertise in a market with evolving digital infrastructure needs and believes cross-border collaboration can open new avenues for growth.
