Malaysia’s Initiative MEWC has set-up the NATIONAL IPv6 COUNCIL and had first meeting in Dec Council Membership – MECW, EPU, MOF, MAMPU, MOSTI, MCMC, Main ISPs/IASPs (telcos & Jaring) Objective – to plan and implement IPv6 adoption in Malaysia Proposed Targets to be IPv6-enabled:- –ISPs/IASPs by 2006 –E-Government Network by 2008 –Malaysia by 2010

Malaysia’s Initiative The council has also proposed and set-up IPv6 Centre of Excellence (National Advanced V6 Centre– NAv6) in USM with the following objectives:- –To conduct and facilitate R&D in IPv6 –To endeavour to be the regional training centre for IPv6 professionals –To create awareness and promote IPv6 adoption in Malaysia –To consult, monitor and audit IPv6 adoption in Malaysia

NAv6NAv6

NAv6: Core R&D and Middleware Development The Core Research and Development program will strive to: –Enhance knowledge on IPv6 R&D –Facilitate active collaboration and consultation activities with various national and international bodies –Create new standards and advancement in IPv6 technology –Provide technical support and expertise

NAv6 Proposed R&D Projects

NAv6: Training and Human Resource The Training and Human Resource program will strive to: –Formulate and distribute IPv6 curriculum for institutions of higher learning (undergraduate level, postgraduate level & diploma level) –Develop and train IPv6 capable trainers and instructors. –Create a new industry and to vitalize industries in various fields of education and services. –Monitor and formulate a regional consultative body for policies and directions for IPv6 curriculum.

NAv6 : Awareness and Promotion The Awareness and Promotion program will strive to: –Create awareness upon local industries –Create awareness internationally –Create awareness in government and private sectors Workshops and seminars would be the main thrust in the IPv6 awareness and promotion campaign. The Training and Human Resource team will work closely with Awareness and Promotion team to ensure a standard idea is spread to the intended group.

NAv6 : Monitoring and Auditing The Monitoring and Auditing program will strive to: –Monitor the overall IPv6 development and deployment in Malaysia –Gather and analyze statistical information –Audit IPv6 network compliance

NAv6NAv6 NAV6 has taken the following initiatives:- Involved in preparing the National IPV6 Roadmap Presented Papers at the APEC Tel. Working Group and Asia-Pacific Telecommunity seminars on Malaysia’s IPV6 Program (Goa, India, July 2005) IPv6 Training Program for ISPs/IASPs (25-28 July 2005) Swinburne University of Technology (Sarawak) and other institutions have started to collaborate with NAV6 on IPV6 related projects Further R&D projects awaiting funds

NAv6: 2005 Plan Training Program for MinDef Staff (27-29 Sept. 2005) Malaysia IPv6 Summit (21-23 Nov. 2005)

e-Government Network SOME PROPOSED STRATEGIES TO BE STUDIED:- Couple the IPv6 address allocations together with the national broadband rollout. Broadband projects by Government to be V6-enabled like Schoolnet, MYREN and etc. Port the website for Government websites to have special sections just for those who are v6 enabled. This will encourage people to use IPv6 All large scale new government network projects be IPv6 compliant

e-Government Network SOME PROPOSED STRATEGIES ….(cont’d) All net schools be allocated IPv6 addresses and IPv6 compliant modems New local content development be IPv4/v6 dual stack ready, thus increasing local content and encouraging IPv6 Affordability - Very. Little cost to Government agencies and to telcos if proper planning is done.

e-Government Network Possible Action Plan for e-Government Network:- NAv6 to do an assessment study on the migration of e-Government Network to IPv6 under the supervision of MAMPU NAv6 could assist MAMPU in the implementation process, including IPv6 compliance audit NAv6 could assist MAMPU in issuing template provisions for ensuring IPv6-compliance in tender specs for procurement NAv6 to discuss with MAMPU and INTAN and prepare human capacity building plan for Government CIOs and System Admin Staff
