In Malaysia as well, new ideas for development has always evolved and arise to enhance quality, performance and interactivity of services. Putrajaya has been suggested to be the first smart city in Malaysia. However, there is no model of smart city in Malaysia yet. Thus, it is crucial to form a model of smart city in Malaysia. The model is designed using the requirements gathering by questionnaires distributions, interviews and observations. The relations between Internet of Things (IOTs) and culture influence are the foundation of designing the smart city model in Malaysia.
