Currently singapore is using this system. Good system i gotta say. You cant diff singtel m1 or star hub user by looking at the number. They all looks the same. Only the user who use it know what line they are on.

I read this news 2 weeks ago on MCMC announcement and it will be implement by Dec 2007.
QUOTE KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) is confident that mobile number portability (MNP) will be available to cellphone users in the country by December next year. to read the AnnouncementHowever, several handphone users in a straw poll by In.Tech said they aren holding their breath for the service to see the light of day. MNP was proposed by the Government in 2004 and scheduled to be in use by last year. However, the implementation was delayed, and it was decided that more research needed to be conducted. MCMC started the research in September last year. |

Don't think it'll be within next year. My speculation will be 2009.

I think the concept will preserve the 7-digit number and the prefix.

think of it such... if u are a digi user of number 016-3111111, then u use MNP to go to maxis, u still use 016-3111111
australia used the same system as us 04x with x different for the telcos.. when MNP was introduced, the hp prefix juz became 04- and the x digit became more like a part of the phone number |

well, the telcos will have problem if they charge call to other network at different charges and they differentiate between network using 01x prefix
sure when MNP introduced, 012 doesn't mean maxis and so on. i think many of us will jump between network when it is introduced as some of us stay with the network because of the number. |
