Axiata expects growth momentum to continue


“If we can do it (integration) by January or February, we are in good shape,’’ Axiata group president and CEO Datuk Izzaddin Idris said yesterday.

Axiata submitted its proposal for the merger of Celcom Axiata Bhd with Digi to the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission and other authorities in July.
