Science, technology and innovation minister Chang Lih Kang said the project required evaluation from multiple angles.
“There are many aspects that we need to examine in this feasibility study,” Bernama reported him as saying at Universiti Teknologi Petronas last night.
However, Chang hoped the construction of a rocket launch site could begin as early as 2026.
“Demand for satellite launches is increasing, and the number of existing launch sites worldwide is no longer sufficient.
“In the past, satellites were mainly needed for communication and television, but now many sectors including automotive, smartwatches and smartphones rely on satellite technology for GPS, communications and more,” he said.
On Feb 15 last year, it was reported that Malaysia was racing to establish the first rocket launch site in Southeast Asia.
Chang was quoted as saying that Malaysia had several advantages in building such a facility, including its location outside earthquake zones, lack of active volcanoes, advanced technological capabilities and a well-developed electrical and electronics industry. - FMT
