You may have asked, "All these 5G phones, but where are the 5G networks?" If you recall, it was previously announced that 5G would be available in the federal areas by end of 2021. Now, we also have news on which state could be the first to get 5G access.

We may no longer be able to complain about the lack of 4G coverage in the future. The government is planning to build a national digital network called Jalinan Digital Negara, otherwise known as Jendela, which aims to provide a central 4G mobile broadband network to populated areas.
