Still not quite up to speed


PETALING JAYA: New regulations are set to take effect on April 1 to enhance the overall quality of wireless broadband services, with telcos required to deliver a minimum download speed of 7.7mbps.

But with the regulatory body, Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), saying that the product offerings of telcos to users will not be affected, meaning that plans below 7.7Mbps will not change after April 1, consumer and other groups have countered to say that the aim should be to improve user experience.
