1.my, after 6 years of waiting

It was all dated back to 19 March 2002 when we had registered our first domain name, 1.com.my. Along with this acquisition, we had also registered 1.net.my and 1.edu.my (silly enough to believe that MyNIC may consider awarding 1.my to us if we have all the extentions).

At that moment, there is no other way to register 1.my as MyNIC decided to stop offering just .my registration after 1996! Only few lucky one got theirs, including sirim.my, utm.my, and gov.my (special case, registered after 1996).

“one.com.my or 1.com.my?” asked by our customers. Again, we registered one.com.my during year 2003 to have less confusion.

It was a long way after MyNIC re-opened the .my registration by the end of year 2007. We are lucky enough to secure 1.my finally and in conjunction with the new launch of our website.
