Sepang: A Connected Society by 2005

In Malaysia, all the 26 villages in Sepang will have its own Information Technology (IT) centre that will each cost approximately RM 10,000 (US$ 2,631.58). The centres, which are part of the efforts aimed at Sepang's commercialisation of its industries and products, will be set up with computers and connections to the Internet.

Besides that, a villagers' occupation and profile will also be established, while plans to roll out a website, www.sepang.com, are also eyed. The plans to develop Sepang into an IT-based society are slated to be ready by 1 January 2005.
