South Korea delays decision on Google's map data request
FILE PHOTO: A Google logo is seen at a company research facility in Mountain View, California, U.S., May 13, 2025. REUTERS/Carlos Barria/File Photo SEOUL: South Korea has delayed a decision on a request from Google for permission to export map data, following US pressure to address what Washington regards as a non-tariff barrier during recent trade talks, its Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport says. South Korea and the United States are preparing for a summit of their leaders, possibly this month, after reaching a trade deal in late July, but it was not clear whether the map issue will be discussed at the meeting. South Korea previously rejected requests from Google, whose parent is Alphabet, for permission to use map data on servers outside the country, in 2016 and 2007, citing security concerns. The ministry said in a statement its National Geographic Information Institute had decided to postpone the decision for 60 days to give Google time to come up with measures that address its security concerns. Google has said there were no security concerns about its mapping data on South Korea, saying the data are publicly available and used by a number of companies, after going through a security review by a government agency. The company said, however, it is closely discussing with the South Korean government about taking any other security measures requested by the authorities, while considering plans to purchase blurred images from local partners which have been approved by the government. South Korea, whose 1950-1953 war with North Korea ended without a peace treaty, argues that if it allowed such data to leave the country, the locations of military facilities and other sensitive sites could be revealed. But the United States said restrictions on cross-border data flows have long served as barriers to operating navigation services through Google Maps and Apple Maps, resulting in US companies losing out in the South Korean market. — Reuters

Beijing says Nvidia's H20 chips not safe for China
Nvidia says its chips have no 'backdoors' that would allow remote access or control. (EPA Images pic) BEIJING : Nvidia's H20 chips pose security concerns for China, a social media account affiliated with China's state media said today, after Beijing raised concerns over backdoor access in those chips. The H20 chips are also not technologically advanced or environmentally friendly, the account, Yuyuan Tantian, which is affiliated with state broadcaster CCTV, said in an article published on WeChat. 'When a type of chip is neither environmentally friendly, nor advanced, nor safe, as consumers, we certainly have the option not to buy it,' the article concluded. Nvidia did not immediately respond to a request for comment. H20 artificial intelligence chips were developed by Nvidia for the Chinese market after the US imposed export restrictions on advanced AI chips in late 2023. The administration of US President Donald Trump banned their sales in April amid escalating trade tensions with China, but reversed the ban in July. China's cyberspace watchdog said on July 31 that it had summoned Nvidia to a meeting, asking the US chipmaker to explain whether its H20 chips had any backdoor security risks – a hidden method of bypassing normal authentication or security controls. Nvidia later said its products had no 'backdoors' that would allow remote access or control. In its article, Yuyuan Tantian said Nvidia chips could achieve functions including 'remote shutdown' through a hardware 'backdoor'. Yuyuan Tantian's comment followed criticism against Nvidia by People's Daily, another Chinese state media outlet. In a commentary earlier this month, People's Daily said Nvidia must produce 'convincing security proofs' to eliminate Chinese users' worries over security risks in its chips and regain market trust.

‘Evolve or get left behind'
Imagine spending years earning a degree, only to find that the skills you've learnt are outdated by the time you enter the workforce. It's a scary thought, but in today's fast-changing world, it's becoming a reality. Technology is moving so quickly that the job market is changing in ways we couldn't have imagined a decade ago. Some traditional jobs are disappearing, new ones are emerging, and the skills employers are looking for are shifting right under our feet. According to the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report, in the next five years, 69 million new jobs will be created, but 83 million will disappear, leading to a net loss of 14 million jobs globally. However, this shift isn't just about job losses – it's about transformation. While automation and artificial intelligence (AI) are eliminating certain roles, entirely new industries and career paths are emerging at an unprecedented pace. The big concern now is whether there will be enough talent to support this transformation in the next five years. The challenge for educators, policymakers and students is no longer about preserving old jobs, but preparing for new ones. The increased adoption of new and frontier technologies, along with greater digital access, is expected to drive job growth across industries. Three industries are leading the transformation of the global workforce: fintech, AI and information technology (IT), and healthtech and biotech. These fields are rapidly expanding, fuelled by technological advancements, automation, and a growing need for specialised expertise. Fintech and digital finance The financial sector is evolving beyond traditional banking, with AI and blockchain transforming how people invest, transact and manage money. Cryptocurrencies, decentralised banking and automated financial services are becoming the norm, eliminating many conventional roles while creating new ones. The demand for specialists in AI-driven financial analytics, cybersecurity and blockchain development has skyrocketed. Today, companies require experts who can predict market trends using big data, protect digital transactions from cyber threats, and develop innovative fintech products that make banking more seamless and secure. AI, IT and quantum computing Technology is no longer a sector – it's the backbone of every industry. AI, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT) are reshaping business operations worldwide. Companies are aggressively automating processes, implementing AI-driven decision-making, and leveraging virtual and augmented reality to enhance customer experiences. Alongside AI and cloud computing, quantum computing is emerging as a game-changer. Companies like Microsoft, Google and IBM are racing to develop quantum technologies that could revolutionise industries by performing complex calculations in seconds – something today's most powerful computers would take years to accomplish. The potential applications in cryptography, materials science, pharmaceuticals and AI are immense, making quantum computing specialists one of the most sought-after professionals of the future. Healthtech and the biotech boom An ageing global population and rapid medical advancements have made healthtech one of the most promising fields for job creation. Biotechnology, genetic engineering and telemedicine are revolutionising healthcare, leading to breakthroughs in personalised medicine, AI-powered diagnostics and robotic-assisted surgeries. The demand for AI specialists in healthcare, biomedical engineers and genetic data analysts is growing exponentially. With digital health platforms expanding, professionals who can integrate AI into medical diagnostics, develop bioengineered solutions, or innovate in telemedicine will shape the future of healthcare. Staying relevant In this fast-changing job landscape, degrees alone no longer guarantee employability. Today's graduates must be strategic in developing future-proof skills that align with the evolving job market. Digital literacy, AI proficiency, cloud computing, big data analysis, and quantum computing fundamentals are becoming fundamental across industries. Students should not just rely on what they learn in the classroom but actively seek out opportunities to upskill. Beyond technical expertise, soft skills like adaptability, creativity and problem-solving remain critical. The half-life of technical knowledge is shrinking, meaning that professionals must embrace continuous learning to stay ahead. The ability to work with emerging technologies, think critically and collaborate across disciplines will be the key differentiator in a world where automation is replacing routine tasks. M'sia's chance to lead The future of work is not approaching – it is already here. In an era where AI, quantum computing, big data and biotech are redefining industries, the ability to adapt, innovate and lead will determine Malaysia's place in the global economy. Degrees alone no longer guarantee success – future-proof skills do. Our universities are already taking bold steps to integrate industry-driven education, advanced digital training, and real-world applications. But the momentum must continue. Malaysia has the talent, resources and vision to become a global hub for fintech, AI, biotech, and emerging frontier technologies. With continued investment in cutting-edge research, strong industry-academia collaborations, and a culture of lifelong learning, we can build a workforce that doesn't just respond to change – but drives it. The future belongs to those who embrace innovation, master new technologies, and dare to think beyond traditional career paths. Malaysia is not just preparing for the jobs of the future – we are creating them.
