In order to analyse the transformational influence that the Internet has had on the gains in educational results and the growth in the number of people in Malaysia who are literate, the purpose of this research is to examine the impact that the Internet has caused. As the availability of digital connection increases in both urban and rural regions, the Internet has emerged as an indispensable instrument for bridging educational gaps, providing easily available learning resources, and providing support for programs undertaken by both the government and commercial organizations with the goal of enhancing literacy. The purpose of this essay is to investigate the following topics: the introduction of online platforms into educational institutions; the effect of e-learning both during and after the COVID-19 outbreak; and the role of digital education in terms of reaching populations that are not adequately served. All of these topics are intended to be investigated in order to explore the aforementioned topics. This study inquiry reveals the several ways in which education that is supplied via the Internet helps to the development of reading abilities. This is accomplished through the use of data analysis, policy assessments, and case studies. In addition to this, the study deals with issues such as the digital divide and the limits that are brought about by infrastructure. The findings make it abundantly evident that digital technology possesses the potential to assist Malaysia in accomplishing its objective of providing every individual with access to education that is not only inclusive but also of a high quality.
