The communications and digital minister says no contract has been awarded yet for the rollout of the second 5G network.
Last Wednesday, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said a switch to a dual 5G network would allow for more effective participation by China’s Huawei, providing for both ‘western and eastern’ technology.
“This is not true. If there are any parties interested in making bids, they will be able to do so when the time comes. Ong later expressed concern that this suggested there would be no open tenders for the second 5G network. “Any action taken by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission is legal. Agencies can request for MCMC to block access to websites or accounts that come within their jurisdiction.”
