what is the basic requirements to qualify for a MSC status company...

you still need money to pay(I not remember how much, but thousands) for the status application.. and that;s the most reason why people/company won't.. (yes.. i do knew some of benefit about it too. )

Certain company not so good, but if they can pay, they can get it too.

Sometime, it come as an offer (but you still had to pay).

(At the first place.. I just wish the MSC status is a reward and honor from Multimedia Communication Ministry for good reputation company. But it's not)

Heard that MSC Companies must operate within certain areas (MSC designated areas).

Well,you are totally wrong ..sorry to say that.

If you are not qualify for MSC status ,you will not acheive the status any way.No matter how much u pay for it .MDEC will eventually monitor and do a review of your company at least once a year.If a company is trying to cheat on the goverment,they will pull back your status immediately and will be black listed after an investigation.
