Johor State Government to Deploy Cisco Unified Communications System

Posted on: Thursday, 19 June 2008, 09:00 CDT

The Johor state government has decided on a Cisco unified communications system that will be deployed by Cisco gold certified partner HP and MysysNet, an information and communications technology systems integrator.

The unified communications system, which includes more than 1,000 Cisco Unified IP Phones, will deliver the voice, video and data communications needs of state government employees in the Johor State New Administrative Centre (JSNAC) in Nusajaya. The southernmost state on the Malaysian peninsula, Johor has a population of just over three million.

Cisco networking equipment was also used to provide connectivity for Johor state under the Johor Electronic Government (JEG) phases 1 and 2, with the project management undertaken by MysysNet. The decision by the Johor state government to deploy Cisco unified communications is part of the state's plans to use technology to advance economic development there.

Johor State's focus on information and communications technology (ICT) to rejuvenate the state government's operations places it among other governments around the world that have also seen the potential in ICT to create closer relationships with their citizens, enhance the business climate for investors, and increasingly, to lower the environmental footprint of their cities.
