It seems that Huawei, as well as other partners from China, are planning to bring 5G network to the tallest mountain in the world, Mount Everest.

Yesterday, we found out that there are people crazy enough to burn down some 5G transmitter towers in the UK because of a silly conspiracy theory. The conspiracy theory, which was started by an influencer (or more like influenza lol) managed to convince some people that the COVID-19 is somehow linked to the 5G signal strength, thus weakening our body immune system. In response to that, YouTube have decided to remove all video that links to that conspiracy theory.

vivo first dropped a teaser for its next phone last week but now we're getting the details right from the horse's mouth.

Today, our local telcos - Celcom, Digi and Maxis - have signed a new Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).

This will enable improved 4G connectivity nationwide, in line with the government’s NFCP target.

They are expected to help support 5G telecommunications and improve 4G coverage.
