Google Plans $15 Billion Malaysia Investment in 2027 and 2028 to Expand Data Centers and Clean Energy

Google announced a $15 billion investment in Malaysia to be deployed across 2027 and 2028, its largest commitment to the country to date. The spending will expand the company's existing data center footprint, building on its Selangor cloud region and Port Dickson campus, and will also cover clean energy infrastructure, water security initiatives, and workforce upgrading programs.

The announcement marks a significant step up from Google's earlier Malaysia presence. The company had previously committed $2 billion in 2024 to establish its first data center and cloud region in the country. The new $15 billion pledge comes as Malaysia has become a magnet for major technology infrastructure spending, with Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, and SoftBank also committing substantial capital to the country in recent years.
