The migration of telco customers and networks from the older 3G network is proceeding even faster than targeted, announced the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC).

The migration is happening in light of the sunsetting of the 3G network to open up spectrum for use by the faster and more efficient 4G network, as part of the National Digital Infrastructure Plan (Jendela).
