... According to TM’s new RAO, they have set tiered pricing and the wholesale charges is only cheaper with higher monthly volume. On the lowest tier of 0-499,999Mbps, TM is charging RM8 per Mbps/month versus RM2.55 per Mbps for the highest tier of 9,000,000Mbps and above. That means providers with low monthly volume (less than 500Gbps) would have to pay RM800 for 100Mbps, while providers that can commit to a minimum of 9Tbps per month will only need to pay RM255/month for 100Mbps. ....

Wholesale pricing vs retail pricing
In case you’re wondering why the wholesale 100Mbps cost is higher than what retail customers are paying at the moment (e.g. 100Mbps for RM99/month or RM129/month), you’re not alone. Take note that broadband providers will only subscribe to the required HSBB wholesale bandwidth according to their average total utilisation. For example, if a provider has just ten 100Mbps customers, they will not subscribe 1Gbps bandwidth as not all customers will be fully utilising their bandwidth at all times. If the peak concurrent utilisation is only 300Mbps, they would only need 300Mbps with slightly more headroom as an extra buffer. .......
For an example and calculation sake, the above news article says Maxis Fiber has 600,000 Fiber subscribers. Let's say Maxis Fiber buys all it's broadband capacity from TM HSBB Wholesale and it's subcribers have an average 100Mbps Fiber plan, Maxis Fiber will need to buy wholesale a broadband capacity of 20Tbps per month, ... ie 600,000 X 100Mbps divided by 3 = 20,000,000Mbps = 20Tbps, .... which is priced at RM255 per month for 100Mbps by TM HSBB Wholesale.
So, this means the new 2023 MSAP by MCMC/Fahmi and RAO by TM HSBB Wholesale of RM255 per month per 100Mbps will likely apply to most telcos or ISP = it's likely that subscribers can expect lower/cheaper Fiber plans in Sep 2023, especially from the major Fiber telcos like TM Unifi Fiber, Maxis Fiber, Celcom-Digi Fiber and Time dotcom.
