Hi guys, am considering to subscribe to Celcom Fibre since I'm their Celcom postpaid customer. Their package seems decently cheap (given that I'm on a tight budget). Anyone has experience using their fibre? Also, what router are they providing? Anyone has the model? Thanks!!! :-)

Prices are going to come down in the next year or so. Celcom and Digi will start to roll out very soon for West Malaysia. More choices for customers, besides Maxis, TM and Time.

Yeay!!!!

Allo are already in the midst of expanding to secondary towns in Perak such as Menglembu, Papan and Silibin. Likewise, in Kedah, it will be Aman Jaya and Mergong. Their intention is to cover brownfields where TM isn't present (no UniFi, but has StreamyX).

It is 'easy and convenient' for TNB to lay infra as they will utilize their existing poles for electricity when laying fibre infra. Thus, not as much CAPEX and resource needed, as opposed to other players who have nothing (TM, Maxis, TIME....etc).

At the end of the day, laying fibre infra is still an expensive exercise and unless they reach a certain take-up rate, their ROI will be extremely ridiculous (taking many years to recover, with negative nett present value cash flow). Thus, don't really blame ISPs for not expanding to rural areas, simply because they know the ROI will be tough to achieve.
