KUALA LUMPUR: Telekom Malaysia Bhd (TM) and U Mobile will enter into a new 5G Multi-Operator Core Network (MOCN) arrangement as part of its approach to strengthen mobile competitiveness and advance its convergence ambitions.
In connection with this transition, TM has exercised its contractual rights under the existing 5G Access Agreement to terminate its current 5G wholesale access arrangement with Digital Nasional Bhd (DNB), in accordance with the terms of the agreement and subject to regulatory processes and requirements.
"Mobile services are a critical pillar of TM’s convergence ambitions, enabling integrated fixed, mobile, content and smart services across consumer, SME and enterprise segments.
"The introduction of the government’s dual 5G network framework provides the opportunity for TM to evaluate options that best support long-term competitiveness and value of its convergence offerings,” it said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia today.
TM said the transition of the 5G service would be thoroughly planned and carried out smoothly to ensure no disruption to customers’ experience.
"TM acknowledges DNB’s pioneering role in accelerating Malaysia’s nationwide 5G rollout. The group remains committed to industry collaborations in advancing Malaysia’s digital infrastructure ecosystem,” it added. – Bernama
