Congratulations to Permata Dunia Nizam Razak on being selected as one of the top 50 influences who aided in the development of Malaysia’s digital economy by Digital New Asia’s Digerati 50 2020–2021. (Volume 4). Nizam Razak is the creator of one of Malaysia’s most popular local franchises, Boboiboy. Two television series, over 300 merchandise products, and two theatrical movies have all been inspired by the brand. Despite a few setbacks when it was first aired on TV, Nizam never gave up, and the Boboiboy animation has been popular with people of all ages and can be seen in over 70 countries. In fact, the company’s second intellectual property (IP), MechAmato, is poised to be licensed to a major global broadcaster.
