TM Group CEO, Imri Mokhtar asserted that DNB’s Access Agreement provides a level playing field for telcos to access the single 5G network equally and to deliver a wider range of innovative services. Moreover, TM is aiming to leverage this equal entry into 5G and its current suite of connectivity and digital solutions to drive innovation and digital transformation at a national level.
Imri said that this is in line with key digital programmes such as JENDELA and MyDigital to competitively position Malaysia as a technology hub. Besides that, via TM One, its enterprise and Government sector arm, TM recently launched its 5G Sphere, a circle of leading technology and smart solution partners to form an ecosystem that will accelerate the co-creation of 5G innovative use-cases, taking enterprise 5G transformation from ideation to realisation.
