  "summary": "Malaysia's artificial intelligence (AI) agenda should shift beyond data centre construction in Budget 2027, according to MBSB Investment Bank. Instead, the focus should be on enterprise adoption, domestic intellectual property, cybersecurity, and workforce productivity. The bank also emphasized the need for supply-side efficiency by broadening the tax base, closing leakages, expanding consumption excises, introducing carbon pricing, and rationalizing spending. Furthermore, MBSB IB stressed the importance of policy certainty, transparent project implementation, outcome-based incentives, and measures that channel long-term savings into productive investment.",
