Is TM a wireless giant in the making?


The ongoing speculation that Telekom Malaysia Bhd (TM) will be involved in a merger and acquisition (M&A) deal with Packet One Networks (M) Sdn Bhd (P1) gives rise to an interesting proposition - could a new wireless giant be created?

While details on the actual deal structure are scant for now, insiders point to one end result if it goes through: TM and P1 will collaborate to target the wireless broadband market and that TM, which has the much larger balance sheet, will eventually assume control over the new entity.
