AwanBiru Technology Bhd (Awantec) chief executive Abu Hasan Ismail has been named a candidate to lead the joint secretariat overseeing the roll-out of the government’s digital initiatives, sources told The Vibes.

Insiders said the nomination could lead to concerns of conflict, given that Awantec’s subsidiary, Prestariang Systems Sdn Bhd, has been appointed as a managed service provider to handle cloud services for the government. https://www.thevibes.com/articles/news/18917/conflict-as-awantec-chief-named-to-lead-mydigital-unit
