The first MSAP was implemented in 2018, when Gobind Singh Deo served as the Communications and Multimedia Minister, resulting in price reductions of up to 30% for entry-level broadband plans. — MCMC
PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) said that despite the latest Standard on Access Pricing (MSAP) taking effect on March 1, users can only expect cheaper broadband prices after access agreements have been finalised with Internet service providers (ISPs), which it expects to conclude by the end of September.
MCMC issued the statement in response to a report by a local tech portal questioning why there hasn’t been a price reduction even after four months of the MSAP agreement coming into effect.
