register cheaply in the webhosting price comparison
The domain extension .my is the country-specific top-level domain from Malaysia, a South Asian country, which is very special due to its geography. The country, which has a population of about 32 million people, is divided into the Malay Peninsula, also known as West Malaysia, with the capital Kuala Lumpur and East Malaysia, which is located on a part of the island Borneo. The South China Sea stretches between these two parts of the country.
Award criteria
The top-level domain .my was launched at IANA on 8 June 1987. The technical and organisational administration is carried out by MyNIC Berhad. In order to register a domain ending in .my for yourself as a private individual or for a company, it is necessary that the private individual has a residence and the company has its headquarters or at least a branch office in Malaysia. If this is not the case, a corresponding domain with this ending can also be registered through a trustee. However, this possibility is only available to commercial interested parties at such a domain address. Due to the strict allocation rules, the registration of a domain may take some time.
Use
Malaysia's main economic factor is tourism. However, this sector - like all other sectors - is strongly regulated by the state. A free market economy is therefore as good as impossible. For this reason, it does not pay off for foreign companies to register a domain ending in .my. There are only a few large companies in Malaysia that determine the market. However, these usually also have a domain address under the ending .my. As the infrastructure of the country is not very well developed, hardly any of the 32 million inhabitants have direct access to the WWW, so the ambition to register a domain address with this domain ending is also quite low among private persons in Malaysia.
Meaning
The importance of the domain extension .my is considered mediocre, as the country is economically and politically considered one of the most stable countries in South East Asia and many foreign companies invest in Malaysia's economy.
