KUALA LUMPUR: Cash is no longer king – data is – in today’s technology-driven world. “When you talk about the digital economy, it is all about data... the previous government probably got it wrong when it said ‘Cash is king’,” Lim said. “Cash is not king; data is king. Therefore, despite the fiscal challenges the government faces, we are committed to investing significant resources in nurturing the digital economy,” Lim said in his speech. However, he stressed, developing the digital economy could not remain solely the role of the government.
