Malaysia’s 5G commercial rollout expected in 2023


Ashton: For every 1,000 broadband connections, 80 new jobs are created. If we are able to double the speed, GDP growth will be positively impacted.

MALAYSIA is poised to be one of the first in Asia to effectively roll out 5G.

This is the view of Swedish communications technology provider Ericsson, which has spearheaded 5G trial runs over the past year that involved the government, telecommunication operators and businesses.
