NovaGPU to make AI accessible for Malaysian SMEs

KUALA LUMPUR: Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer just a concept of the future—it's actively reshaping how industries operate, compete, and grow. From automating internal processes to delivering hyper-personalised customer experiences, AI is rapidly becoming a cornerstone of modern business strategy. However, while large corporations continue to lead the charge in AI adoption, many small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are finding it difficult to catch up. According to Malaysian cloud service provider IP ServerOne, the barriers often include tight budgets, limited technical expertise, and uncertainty about how or where to start. To bridge this gap, IP ServerOne launched NovaGPU in April 2025, an innovative GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) platform designed to make AI more accessible and affordable for SMEs. "To put it simply, NovaGPU is like renting powerful computer brains from the internet whenever you need them," the company said in a statement. These "brains" refer to graphics processing units (GPUs)—the same high-performance chips used in AI model training, video rendering, and complex scientific computations. Traditionally, such hardware would require significant capital investment, often running into the hundreds of thousands of ringgit. With NovaGPU, SMEs can access these resources on-demand, without needing to purchase or manage any infrastructure. Whether you're developing a customer-facing chatbot, conducting data analysis, or prototyping an AI model, NovaGPU delivers the computing power to do it—quickly, efficiently, and at a price that fits your budget. The company highlighted two practical, low-barrier applications to help SMEs begin their AI journey. The first is WhatsApp Chatbots That Never Sleep. With NovaGPU, SMEs can deploy intelligent chatbots that run on WhatsApp, a platform already widely used across Malaysia. These bots can handle customer enquiries, provide product recommendations, share pricing, and even help close sales. Next is Auto-Read Invoices, where AI can automatically read invoices from emails, extract critical information (invoice number, amount, supplier name), and input it into accounting systems, cutting down hours of manual data entry. 'Think of AI like hiring a new smart assistant," said CL Lee, managing director of IP ServerOne. "The better your instructions and tools, the better your results. NovaGPU acts as a stepping stone for businesses to try AI at a fraction of the traditional cost." NovaGPU offers access to cutting-edge GPUs, such as the NVIDIA RTX 3090, RTX 4090, and H200 NVL, which are available directly from the cloud and billed hourly. By removing the traditional barriers of cost and complexity, NovaGPU empowers SMEs to experiment, innovate, and grow with AI—in real, tangible, and business-relevant ways.

Company director loses RM137,200 in fake govt tender scam in Kemaman

CHUKAI, June 1 — A company director lost RM137,200 after falling victim to a syndicate offering a fictitious government tender. Kemaman police chief Supt Mohd Razi Rosli said the 52-year-old man was contacted via WhatsApp on May 13 by someone posing as a representative of a public university in Kelantan, offering a tender to supply 20 air-conditioning units and a power generator. 'To gain the victim's trust, the suspect sent four purchase orders allegedly issued by the secretary-general of the Higher Education Ministry, along with contact details of a supposed supplier,' he said in a statement today. The victim believed the offer and made seven bank transfers to an account under the name Gertrude Chee over a five-day period starting May 27. He later discovered the tender was a scam. The case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating. Police urge the public to verify any tender offers with the relevant authorities before making financial transactions. — Bernama

YWM Denies Involvement In Fundraising Scam Offering Cash Returns For Donations

KUALA LUMPUR, May 30 (Bernama) -- Yayasan Waqaf Malaysia (YWM) has denied any involvement in fundraising activities that promise cash rewards in return for donations. YWM, in a statement today, clarified that such activities were carried out by a scam syndicate misusing the names of YWM and the Tabung Musa'adah JAKIM-YWM to collect donations illegally. 'This scam uses an online marketing platform, where members of the public are invited to join WhatsApp and Telegram groups, and are then asked or coerced into making donations with the promise of cash rewards in return. 'YWM stresses that it has never entered into any form of collaboration, agreement or recognition with the online marketing platform for the collection of donations under Tabung Musa'adah JAKIM-YWM, Tabung Sa'adah JAKIM-YWM, or any other fund or waqf initiative organised by YWM,' the statement said. YWM also reminded the public not to be deceived by any offers, invitations, or advertisements for waqf contributions via online marketing platforms, WhatsApp groups, Telegram, or any other unauthorised channels. YWM also said that all official donation matters could be conducted through its official website: as well as its official social media platforms: (Facebook), (Instagram), (X), and (TikTok). According to the statement, YWM will not hesitate to take legal action against any parties found misusing the name of Yayasan Waqaf Malaysia or YWM products for fraudulent purposes. Any information or complaints related to the scam can be directed to YWM via its official channels by emailing info@ or via WhatsApp at 019 2007481. -- BERNAMA
