GEORGE TOWN: The 6-way 4G Multi Operator Core Network (MOCN) is now available at Tanjung Asam here in Bayan Lepas.
The initiative, which is the fifth in the country, was launched by Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil on Tuesday (July 1) and is part of the government policy under "Di Mana Ada Jalan, Di Situ Ada Internet" initiative.
The transmitter tower will be able to provide the services of six telecommunications companies, and will benefit the public by improving connectivity.
