KUALA LUMPUR: Digital Nasional Bhd (DNB) has clarified that its discussions on the 5G rollout with telcommunication providers (telcos) are still ongoing and there have been no sign-ups so far as the Reference Access Offer (RAO) has yet to be published.

The country’s sole 5G wholesale service provider expects the RAO, which has to be published in accordance with the Mandatory Standards of Access, would be finalised by end-November upon the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission’s (MCMC) approval.
