Personal Domain Name for Malaysian
[via Screenshots] The registrar of the .my domain, MYNIC, is going to launch a new domain category under .my TLD by this July. They have published a public consultation paper (note: pdf) to ask for public’s comments on the not yet decided personal domain name. There is even a poll running at MYNIC website for the voting of new domain name (the voting seem didn’t function at the mean time). From the poll result, .me.my is getting the most vote among others (.name.my, .nama.my, .nam.my). My preference would be .name.my since it sync with TLD .name.
There are currently 6 categories under country code TLD .my: .com.my, .net.my, .org.my, .edu.my, .gov.my and .mil.my. None of them could be registered by individual but organization. So the new domain would be a clear acknowledgement to the request of individual eligible domain.
