DNB to minimise 5G rollout complexity. [Newspaper] (2021)
Abstract
KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 3): Digital Nasional Bhd (DNB) has reaffirmed that a single wholesale network (SWN) mechanism will accelerate the national fifth generation (5G) network deployment and move up Malaysia’s position in offering commercial 5G services in ASEAN.
Chief corporate affairs officer Zuraida Jamaluddin said Malaysia is currently ranked sixth for 5G commercial services offering, lagging behind Singapore, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia.
“[SWN] will minimise the complexity and we become the single interoperable platform for 5G network rollout in Malaysia.
“We have planned for commercial launch by this month and to move up the rank to second place in 2024, with an aggressive timeline to achieve 80% coverage by 2024, with full-fledged 5G capabilities,” she told a media briefing on Friday.
