5G services seen earliest by 2022


“We believe the balance sheet (of Celcom, Digi and Maxis) will remain healthy despite the upcoming spectrum allocation, ” UOB Kay Hian Malaysia Research said.

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s fifth-generation (5G) services are likely to be available earliest by 2022 and is expected to accelerate the consolidation of the local telecommunication sector, according to UOB Kay Hian Malaysia Research.

While the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) aims to allocate the 5G spectrum to industry players by 2021, UOB Kay Hian Malaysia Research said the commercial rollout may extend to a year later.
