News & Reviews:   commercial launch

Today, Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB) officially launched 5G coverage commercially in Putrajaya, Cyberjaya and a few spots in Kuala Lumpur. Alongside Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) on behalf of unifi Mobile and YTL Communications Sdn Bhd on behalf of YES, these two companies are the first mobile operators to provide 5G access. 

In this latest news, there seems to be a stumbling block for Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB). According to sources, our Communications and Multimedia Minister Tan Sri Annuar Musa just stated that the government may have second thoughts about its current 5G wholesale model plan.

Not only is December the Christmas season but it's also the month where we expect 5G to be launched by the Malaysian government. Digital Nasional Berhad is responsible for rollout the technology soon and the latest news has it that the commercial release date is 15 December 2021.
