384kbps with a cap of 38.4MB.

Bijan throw some peanuts to us and expect us to be grateful and vote him in next GE....fat chance, fatso.

If the caps are true...this is another Phailed Project BN.

60GB...LOL. I dun mind cap, but be reasonable lar, at that kinda speed, there should be at least 250GB across the board. Those exceed the cap then will have the speed reduced to 50% or at least minimum 1MBbps(UL/DL). Then only reasonable.

Otherwise, it's just the same old repakaging....like someone said, the median of the price has certainly not gone down.

60GB?? Might as well subscribe DIGI. At least you get the added advantage of portability!!

It's obvious for 2 factors:

1) Current Streamyx price REMAINS. Otherwise, Bijan will have gloated to score political points. Isn't it that simple?

2) If current Streamyx price REMAINS, obviously HSBB price will be much higher...so those rumoured price are probably around the right pricing based on current Streamyx price. It certainly won't be below Streamyx!!

So the Mystery is solved. Now left the cap limit. If the cap limit is true, then the HSBB is surely Holy Shit Bloody Broadband!!!

So what we have is an SUPER EXPENSIVE BROADBAND, WITH A LOW CAP.

I'm still drooling over Singtel SGD 46.90 for 10Mbps unlimited broadband.....We will be paying 4 times the price(dun count conversion, if you work/live in SG, SGD 50 is almost similar to RM50 here) for less,

Malaysia Boleh!!!

Tiny nation also dun have petrol, no natural resources, no water, no sand, no nothing. Yet, they still can afford cheap broadband to their citizen. So your point is moot too.

Good info. I hope that's true. Otherwise, the IPTV tak boleh jalan at all. btw, does the pricing includes the IPTV? The FAQS at TMPOint suggest the price includes TriplePlay...if the price includes IPTV, then it is acceptable.

This i'll buy!!!!

I suppose 3rd party modem will be available in the market when the thing has gone mass market....just like ADSL modem last time.

Thanks for the info. As expected. The caps will come sooner than later. Mark my words. Now they're fishing for customers....if tell everyone got 60gb caps...then no one wanna suscribe.....after 3 months later...then u kena...LOL.

NooooO!!!! Najib didn't lie!!! Najib sumpah expert!!!! He said got reduction for the RM50 student package to RM38!!! So it's true!!! You save RM12 (only if u are poor student running on cheap netbook suffering on a slow 384kbps connection). Najib is great!!! All Hail Najib!!!!

I don't think a lot of people here is willing to fork out or can fork out RM250 for an internet line. With the rising cost of living, super inflation, which is not matched with proper salary adjustment. Life is getting harder in Malaysia. IMO, The 5Mbps should be around RM70++ like the current 1Mbps pricing, with the upper range package not exceeding RM150. So much for 'good news' as claimed by Bijan.

This is the kinda thinking that leds Malaysian to be sucks like sacrificial goats for all the blood by UMNO for 50 years.

Friend, it's time to change ur thinking. Don't just bend over and get screw like a whore!!!

Streamyx is already overpriced for what it is. We, the rakyat has to sponsor the gov for everything, and they in turn, suck all our money to feed their cronies to keep them in power.

Here's a nice e-mail i received yesterday:
============================================
What do I get for paying toll every day?

This is on top of the road tax that we pay.

Now I have to pay an extra RM50 for each credit card. For what?

Some cards still carry the yearly fees payable to the provider.

Extra GST (goods and services tax). Again, how does that benefit me?

So the money you earned is tax and the money you spend is also tax.

How do you like that???

Look at the long list of 11 items.

I have to pay for security guards because the police are hopeless.
I have to install filters because the water supply is dirty.
I have to watch satellite tv because the government broadcasts crap.

Many kids have to go for tuition or to private schools because the
government schools are bad.
We have to pay IPPs (independent power providers) because the government
cannot provide consistent electricity.

We have to pay Indah Water to clean up the sewers.
We have to pay tax on foreign cars because Mahathir wants to keep his
dying local car industry alive.
Most have to drive because the government cannot provide good public
transport.

We have to pay to sustain the government's affirmative action policies.
We have to pay for private health care because the public hospitals are
crowded .

Don't forget, the monthly salary that we earned will be taxed.

All in all, we have to pay a PREMIUM to stay in this country! Pay, Pay and
Pay



1Malaysia Boleh!!! -
=========================================================

Seriously, asking for RM70+ for a 5Mbps is UNREASONABLE??? Like paying toll for every god damn road in the city is REASONABLE?? Change your thinking dude. Or else you'll forever be screwed.

You know what. If DIGI is given a license to implement fixed line, i bet we can achieve almost similar package pricing like our neighbour Singapore in 5 years time!!

TM monopolized the market together with UMNO....no competition, that is why they're free to charge as they like.

And yet some people think what TM charging is "reasonable".....this country really has no hope with people all brainwashed by UMNO 50 years of dictatorship.

Ah ha!! I spotted a TM staff here. No wonder....

Yeah yeah, we know. Tak suka Keluar right? Typical UMNO speech. And your wish has been granted actually, we are facing such severe brain drain...all the smart and rich leaving the country. I'm already planning for my next generation to leave the country, thank you. You can stay here all you want.

And you don't even understand ....just because you can afford it and then you should pay for it???


Some people DO LOVE TO GET SCREW.

Hmm...i forgot to tell you...I WORKED IN THE HIGHWAY INDUSTRY PREVIOUSLY. Just want to let you know, country like Sweden has an industry for highway ETC..in fact, which some Malaysia highway use previously......but there are NO TOLLS IN SWEDEN. Ironic ain't it?

And Denmark, there was only 1 toll in the MAJOR HIGHWAY. Toll on major highway is acceptable...like North South highway....but Tolls in City centre in which people commute daily to their work is UNACCEPTABLE.

Now, please don't show your ignorance anymore and go away.

Look who is the laughing stock now.

1) The billions from this HSBB project is sponsored by the Gov. Aka taxpayer's money. Aka OUR MONEY.

Hey, if our Gov willing to have an open tender and give license to other service provider to do the job and sponsor whoever can get the best package at the most reasonable price, you think other ISP like Digi, Maxis etc cannot do?? Because the billions are handed over to TM for nothing, in which it is used to feed the crony ( who obviously wants to makan a lot and charge high price for substandard service). So in the end, instead of paying RM10 billion to do the same job, you need RM20 billion to do it. And who shall bear the cost? Why, the consumer of course.

Seriously, i'll rather not have IPTV (dunno what crap channels) and have pure broadband instead. All these 'Value Added Services' are basically no value. Just excuses to charge more.

1) You never read your own post, did u??
2) Everyone knows Gov has a major share in TM and the project is handed to TM on a silver platter.
