MELAKA – THE FIRST TO LAUNCH A STATE-LED BROADBAND INFRASTRUCTURE INITIATIVE

Telekom Malaysia Berhad is working together with the Melaka state government to provide statewide broadband infrastructure for its residents.

Under the Melaka Broadband Project, TM will provide an additional 25,000 broadband ports as well as offer special subscription rates of its broadband packages.

This will allow more Melaka residents to enjoy the benefits of speedier Internet connectivity.

The benefits are not only for consumers but also for small and medium businesses, as there will also be a special promotional package to encourage the use of broadband in business operations.

Melaka residents can save up to 33 per cent off the regular monthly subscription rates for Streamyx Basic 512Kbps and 1.0Mbps packages; and Business Broadband SOHO 1.0Mbps package. Customers will only be charged the normal monthly subscription fee after a 12-month period. There is a minimum subscription period of 24 months for those who sign-up for these special broadband packages. A one-time service activation fee of RM75 and an installation fee of RM88 are applicable upon the successful activation of the service.

This special package will be offered to the first 25,000 new broadband customers in Melaka.

Melaka residents can sign-up for the special Melaka broadband Streamyx packages at any Clickers Authorised Service Outlet (CASO), TMpoint outlets or authorised TM Melaka State Silver Partners and Resellers.
