KUALA LUMPUR: No firm case for a second 5G network has been established, given the good job Digital Nasional Bhd (DNB) has done rolling out the network coverage, says former deputy international trade and industry minister Ong Kian Ming.

In a statement today, Ong noted that analytics company Opensignal has ranked Malaysia as having one of the fastest 5G speeds in the world.

“Importantly, the same ranking also shows that ‘Malaysia tops the table for the uplift in users’ average download speeds using 5G over 4G with a staggering 25.7-fold increase’,” he said.
