When Malaysia big hoo haa about Data Center; in reality lack of skilled talents.

so if youre major in HVAC or Electrical Engineering. you win.

Thought some say only need security guards for data centers, no real talent needed.

security like military complex?

owai..

Now even thailand become the more interesting place to go for DC.

Those high value job in operating data centre can be managed remotely, so these workers WFH in their respective countries

well. true. so why Malaysia so hyped about DC and cannot deliver even things like Power, and Water?

Who say M'sia cannot supply power and water? There's enough supply, gomen can easily get IPP to generate more electricity, albeit not green.

The problem that I see is the execution is slow, so construction maybe delayed, those kind of problem...

you got watch video or not?
it's distribution.

investor come in, expect data center only.
local authorities are expected to give TNB substation for free.

Which for big development, is unspoken requirement for you like resurfacing the roads around your site.
However, this usually means 33kV or 11kV substations only. Those are typically close to end user location.
Your problem is with 110kV substations which usually servers entire industrial parks.

Building those take time. C&S is 1 year + if you quick, but you also gotta wait 2 years for the transformers to be built and commissioned.

Land is cheap where these facilities don't exist.
Where these facilities exist, land is not cheap.

This is partially why there has been such a huge push for Solar for industrial players lately to shed TNB load in order for TNB to supply to data center instead.

Water infra also an issue for the same reason. Problem is clean water for cooling tower HVAC systems used by datacenters.

Funny.

Did nothing and was condemned as Do Nothing.

Did something and was said "big hoo haa but lacking...."

He mentions in the video he saw less than 2 dozen people at max working on site.

Rare to see someone from the industry willing to spill the beans.

all these DC wants is someone who can work 24hours.

can go inside DC within 30minutes of ticket. just to push the reset or power button.

execution slow then how? bring katana?

more beans please corgi.

more beans please.

normal.

piling rig only need 2 guys.
1 operator, 1 welder.


RC construction also typically 12 man team only to built 60m x 20m plot of RC slab.
Then, steel structure different group of 12 man team with crane and boomlift.

Your team can be a whole village or can be lean and mean.
Depends on how you plan only.

Also, if concrete baru keras, opening formwork etc just 2 sohai with crowbar only.
plus, have to understand, he is not at site daily. perhaps got invite to visit during off-peak time.

So the issue is taking too long to build becos of red tape?

Build condo salah. Build mall salah. build DC salah.

Keep for forest and greenery, get kecam why no development.

SeSohai amdk demand this demand that..wait till they go to thailand sort out their messy electrical cable hanging every where..
