UNIFI

unifi, Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) Group’s premier Convergence Communications Services Provider is officially made available in Sri Aman, Sarawak with the recent launch of the high speed broadband service in the area - further strengthening TM’s presence as Malaysia’s Convergence Champion, bringing unlimited experiences, unmatched choices and unbeatable value to more Malaysians.

The launch was officiated by Y.B. Dato’ Masir Kujat, Deputy Home Minister who is also the Member of Parliament of Sri Aman, together with Jafer Sadig Abdul Lathiff, Acting State General Manager, TM Sarawak.

Speaking at the event, Jafer said, “The launch of unifi in Sri Aman signifies our milestone in the deployment of unifi to towns outside the major cities of Sarawak. This initiative directly supports the state’s Digital Economy Transformation agenda and as Malaysia’s Convergence Champion, TM is committed to empower our customers across all segments, delivering an enhanced digital lifestyle to more Malaysians. By making unifi available in Sri Aman, TM does not only reach out to our customers, but also to enable the local communities, particularly here in Sarawak to experience TM’s full suite of offerings. With the speed of 100Mbps, our unifi packages will definitely enable you to do so much more!”

“We are committed to continue empowering a digital lifestyle for all Malaysians by offering comprehensive suite of converged services across all segments – fixed, mobile and nomadic. As technologies evolved, we offer steady reduction in price per Mbps over the years hence increasing our customers’ affordability. For local businesses, TM is excited to be an enabler and accelerator of your business opportunities so your business can grow and expand beyond boundaries. TM as the trusted partner in nation-building initiatives, has been investing in sub-urban and rural areas in addressing digital divide for national interest and we remain steadfast in our role as the country’s key enabler for national communications infrastructure,” Jafer elaborated.

Meanwhile, YB Dato Masir Kujat said, “The unifi service offering in Sri Aman is timely considering the state of Sarawak is currently embarking on digital economy to further propel its economy growth. In order for digital economy to be implemented successfully, the telecommunication infrastructure to support high-speed internet connectivity needs to be made available with the latest fiber optic technology. The network has to be extensive throughout the state not only covering the urban areas but also the sub-urban and rural areas. This is to ensure that the rural communities are not left behind in experiencing the high-speed internet hence reducing the digital gap with their urban counterparts.”

Besides the existing unifi LITE, ADVANCE and PRO plans with speeds of 100Mbps, TM is currently offering unifi edu and unifi ebiz packages specifically for students and e-entrepreneurs. The unifi edu package offers broadband access that comes with unifi wifi at an attractive price to support the development of youth and IPT students with access, which they can utilise to further improve their academic performance, wherever they are at their convenience. Meanwhile, in addressing the needs of key economic drivers such as technopreneurs, as well as to support the local SMEs and start-ups, unifi ebiz pack was introduced with the addition of ICT solution add-ons such as Instaweb, a helpful tool that enables self-built business websites and analytical capabilities to help boost their online businesses. 

For unifi customers who wish to remain connected even when outside their home, TM has recently launched ‘i-foundit!’ app where customers can access unifi wifi at over 7,300 unifi wifi hotspots (and growing!) nationwide. The 'i-foundit!' app can be downloaded via Google Play Store or Apple App Store for free.

unifi converts TM rewards points into charity

‘A donation drive to help the nation’ It's better to give than to receive, but wouldn't it be even better to do both? At the same time? Starting November last year, unifi through its loyalty programme - TM Rewards, ran a 'Donate Your Points' programme where unifi customers can convert their TM Rewards points into donation to their charity organisation of choice namely - United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef Malaysia), Medical Relief Society Malaysia (MERCY Malaysia) and National Cancer Council Malaysia (MAKNA). For every 100 points, customers will have the option to convert the points into RM1 which can be donated to the organisations. Within five (5) months of its implementation, TM has successfully collected a total of 16.4 million points worth RM164,000 and it is a recognition that by doing the little things, when we work together, can add up to a big change. The mock cheque of the contributions were handed over by Imri Mokhtar, Executive Vice President, unifi, TM to Richard John Beighton, Chief Private Sector Fundraising of Unicef Malaysia; Amran Mahzan, Executive Director of Mercy Malaysia; and Farahida Dato' Mohd Farid, General Manager of MAKNA in a ceremony held at TM's headquarters, Menara TM. Speaking at the ceremony, Imri said, "We would like to thank our loyal customers who have shown their support towards this noble cause and we are happy to be able to provide a platform for our customers, together with TM, to help make a difference for these much-needed groups of the community. It is a huge satisfaction to put a smile on these children, cancer patients and families who are rebuilding their lives." "We will not stop here. unifi is looking forward to collaborate with many more charity organisations and NGOs in Malaysia. With the support from our generous customers, we will continue to help to alleviate the burden endured by the needy and underprivileged." TM remains committed to our efforts in helping those in need nationwide and this initiative is part of our sustainability effort in everything we do in maintaining the Company's goals to become a responsible and sustainable organisation," he added. In 2011, TM Rewards was introduced to recognise and reward our loyal customers with great offers and privileges by rewarding them with points when bills are paid timely and for any spending on TM's products and services which can be redeemed for bill, Hyppflicks/VOD vouchers or lifestyle items. To date, TM Rewards has recorded 1.9 million registered members and a total of RM137 million worth of points since it started in 2011.
