The government of Malaysia confirmed that the special committee overseeing the implementation of the country’s 5G network will prepare a Cabinet memorandum soon to discuss and decide whether it is time to allow a second 5G network, local press reported.
“We announced that 5G network coverage reached 80.2% on December 31, and so, not too long from now, we will announce our decision on whether to allow telecommunications companies establish a second network, apart from Digital Nasional Bhd (DNB),” communications minister Fahmi Fadzil said.
