Precision 5G rollout


With the platform already being rolled out in parts of Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya and Cyberjaya, Ericsson’s South-East Asia, Oceania and India market area head Nunzio Mirtillo is confident the group will achieve what it had initially set out to do. “We are on schedule and we will continue to be on schedule,” he tells StarBizWeek.

WHEN Ericsson Malaysia became the sole vendor to roll out the country’s nationwide fifth generation (5G) network in July last year, the deal raised plenty of questions and drew criticism from various parties.

More than six months later, following a period that saw multiple movement restrictions being imposed and the country facing easily one of its worst healthcare crises imaginable, the 5G rollout is still on schedule.
