Celcom digi merger pg one

PETALING JAYA: The proposed Celcom-Digi merger passed one of its biggest hurdles in securing the regulator’s approval for the creation of South-East Asia’s biggest telecoms company that will have control of half of Malaysia’s mobile subscribers.

But its creation also raises questions about fair competition, job cuts and there are suggestions that its approval could even be sweetener for the players to agree to take up 5G access.
