I know the celcom way back is TRI, and when through many logo change, remember the dove? many version of it.

I know the celcom way back is TRI, and when through many logo change, remember the dove? many version of it.  Mobikom 018 was owned by Telekom Malaysia. It used 018 prefix in 1990s then discontinued. Telekom Malaysia acquired Emartel 013 and renamed it TMTouch, then acquired TRI/Celcom 019, so 013 & 019 merged to form TM International which was later known as Celcom Axiata (demerger from Telekom Malaysia). Vincent Tan divested Mutiara (Digi Swisscom) in late 1990s due to financial crisis 1997. In 2000s he set up U Mobile and was given part of 018 (not all) numbers.

Cool, the part where TM own the Mobikom and Emartel owner is what I didn't know. the swisscom divest is also didn't know. but I know he set up UM. btw, during TRI period, there is one big dispute by German Telekom aka Deutsche Telekom.

Would do research first... If the new Telco is okay in term of coverage, speed, level of congestion etc. Lowyat forum is one of the places to ask for opinion 😀
