Digi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd (Digi) and TIME dotCom (TIME) announced a collaboration that marks a milestone in Digi’s commitment to provide more connectivity options across the country. The announcement also signifies both comapnies’ commitment to support the National Fiberisation and Connectivity Plan (NFCP) which aims to provide Malaysians with better access to affordable and high-quality connectivity.

The deal will have Digi leverage on TIME’s fibre broadband infrastructure to extent its Digi Home Broadband offerings to more Malaysians. This is especially for customers residing in residential condominiums and apartments.

“This collaboration with TIME allows us to expand our connectivity footprint for more Malaysians to enjoy a seamless and consistent internet experience in and outside the home with Digi,” said Loh Keh Jiat, Chief Marketing Officer of Digi. “Being customer obsessed, we are steadfast in our ambition to deliver the best value, with a wide-range of service offerings to suit our customers’ needs wherever they may be.”

“We stand behind the quality fibre broadband infrastructure that TIME has built. Access to TIME’s infrastructure is open to Internet service providers (ISPs) seeking to extend high speed broadband (HSBB) connectivity to more Malaysians across the country,” said Lee Guan Hong, Executive Director of TIME.

“In tandem with improving overall HSBB connectivity and contributing to the liberalisation of infrastructure access, we will also continue our efforts to expand our coverage footprint across Malaysia.”

In September 2019, Digi Home Fibre was launched in Sabah, its first commercial home broadband service in the country following its pilot rollouts earlier this year in selected areas within Klang Valley and Melaka. Residents in these areas can now enjoy high speed internet for all their entertainment and social needs at an affordable price.
