JASIN: Move over Telekom Malaysia Bhd (TM). The leading electricity provider in the country, Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB), wants a share of the fixed-line, high-speed broadband (HSBB) market that is now the domain of TM.

In relation to this, TNB will run a pilot project in Melaka to test the viability of providing broadband services through its fibre optic network.
