Standard procedure only open 2048kbps before technician visit to your premise. Only when he visits your home they will call the technician at the exchange increase it to 4M and then proceed with technician's HSI account.Speedtest ok then only revert to your own account to confirm they have upgraded your profile. Finally use your own account to do speedtest and if ok ask you to sign job confimation agreement and leave.

In KV, where remote cabinet is widely installed, many lines already automatically capped above 4M, your speed is still limited to what you subscribe is because of your user login account. They do this for convenience because they want to standardize all the ports inside your remote DSLAM cabinet for easy work.

RM140 for 4mbps is pure act of con for such pricing.

It should not even cost more than RM40. 10mbps should only be <RM60.

Line rental should not even cost more than RM5.
In Thailand, if you want voice just add 49baht(RM4.90) to your ADSL subscription which is optional.

Each call costs only 10cents for inbound and 15cents outbound.

With Malaysian broadband pricing so expensive, no wonder our government can keep announcing high GDP(pendapatan kasar negara) growth % every year.

More than 2X the bandwidth for half the price.

On-net and off-net.

Chinese drama contents(whole episodes) and ahem stuffs. Some of them really interesting that you will never find it at other parts of the world.

I can understand how you feel there

The rollout for Unifi coverage seems to have became a failure for ignoring real demand but instead politicized.

Worst even, all the new coverage for the upcoming cable TV network and LTE rollouts seems to also overlap with areas already covered by HSBB infrastructure so this seems to look like the planning totally went wrong from the start.

It makes it look like all the fancy rollouts and planning they did was only to impress and satisfy the VIPs with their respected constituencies/areas and there was never any effort to bring proper internet experience to the mass public from the very start.

It's absurd to think that people will subscribe to cable TV, fibre internet and LTE all at once when REAL demand is coming from all over the country in need of it?

Is Georgetown considered a suburb area with low density population? Is KOMTAR located in a rural area?

If you can afford a luxurious beachside condo at Batu Feringghi, people come from low income bracket?

You must be out of your mind to claim that Bayan Baru and mainland have bigger markets than Georgetown and Batu Feringghi beach strip. Those are economic hotspots flooding with tourism industries including the state government offices. They don't deserve UniFi FTTH?

Additionally your income related statements before this is not consistent. Earlier you said UniFi areas were chosen based on the criteria that people in urban areas were more likely to subscribe to UniFi with better incomes.
Can I ask you again if people could own million dollar condos along the beach strip cannot afford UniFi?

So what's your point now? Are you disputing the fact now that HSBB project did not aim for areas with high demand and people with income groups that can afford it?

What else are you implying? If it's not for the rural areas, not the high economic/tourism activity areas, not specifically for affluent rich areas, then what?

Race specific and politically motivated areas?

We need to query Idris Jala on this about his PEMANDU objectives.

Why is Penang CBD, Georgetown left out from HSBB coverage list.
