This new unifi 100Mbps plan represents a refreshed, simplified and great value all-in-one home offering. Imri Mokhtar, Executive Vice President of unifi, said: “We are constantly innovating by listening closely to our customers - understanding the household needs for fast unlimited broadband, endless entertainment and connecting with one’s family and friends. Recently on 12th July 2018, we had announced our plans to upgrade our existing unifi home customers to higher broadband speeds (currently in pilot phase), so that they could enjoy the better experience a higher speed broadband can offer. Now, we are opening up this experience to new unifi home customers by offering them this 100Mbps unifi plan - as a start.” “Our customer insights show that more and more Malaysia homes are opting for high speed broadband to fuel their daily digital lifestyle - especially driven by the rising usage of streaming services and digital games (e-sports) as part of today’s household lifestyle,” he added. Imri explained: “As the nation’s partner in unleashing the digital potential of a fully connected Malaysia, it is our obsession to enable every Malaysian household to enjoy the benefits of digital technology. Through unifi 100Mbps at RM129 per month, we are setting a new benchmark of speed and affordability - 60% lower than previous 100Mbps plan. We believe that 100Mbps will soon become the starting high speed for Malaysian households as more and more digital applications and content demand greater bandwidth, speed and reliability. Hence, we are anticipating our customers’ needs with this new 100Mbps plan, with higher speed plans coming to you very soon.” To date, more than 1.2 million customers nationwide are enjoying unifi broadband. After a strong market presence serving these 1.2 million early digital adopters, we are opening up to all the more affordable entry-level unifi Basic plan, priced at RM79 per month with 60GB quota, to serve a larger market segment to be onboard the high speed broadband experience. With the new unifi 100Mbps plan and unifi Basic for all, unifi is now able to serve the needs and affordability of a wider base of Malaysian homes. For example, the unifi Basic plan perfectly caters to smaller households that only require approximately 60GB a month for their specific lifestyle needs at this point of time. As the household grows, they can now comfortably move over to the new unifi 100Mbps which fits more arrays of digital lifestyle needs, including access to unifi’s PlayTV content and free voice calls. “We believe that internet connectivity is the basic enabler in growing a more digital Malaysia, leading to a seismic shift in consumer lifestyle. Today, consumers are increasingly benefitting from internet services. They value instant gratification and dislike disruptions to their connected lives. From unifi’s perspective, what consumers want is a converged digital lifestyle where everything is at their fingertips everywhere, anytime. That is exactly what we are offering them,” Imri said, in closing. To learn more about the latest unifi offerings, log on to unifi.com.my

TM gets prepared ahead of the upcoming monsoon season with swift water safety and humanitarian response training
Training to Upskill TM Volunteers and GDRN Members Towards Disaster Preparedness Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) under its Corporate Responsibility (CR) initiatives once again provides a humanitarian response training for the Company’s volunteers as well as to members of the GLC Disaster Response Network (GDRN) ahead of the upcoming monsoon season. The Company recently organised the training session, titled “GDRN Swift Water Safety and Humanitarian Response” as part of its initiatives for disaster preparedness in Malaysia. The four-day training – which featured certified trainers and speakers from the National Disaster Management Agency (NADMA), Ministry of Defense and United Nations Humanitarian Response Depot (UNHRD) – was aimed at strengthening the participants’ humanitarian capabilities and minimising the loss of life and damage to properties and the environment during a disaster. The session saw participation of over 30 participants from TM, GDRN members from Axiata Berhad, Pharmaniaga, Malaysia Airport Holding Berhad (MAHB), Yayasan Hasanah and Yayasan Sime Darby. In addition, more than 30 volunteers from Volunteer Malaysia (VM) - formerly known as iM4U - also took part in the simulation exercise, under the coordination of Azura Ibrahim, a trainer from World Food Programme – UNHRD. Izad Ismail, Head of Corporate Responsibility & External Stakeholder Management, Group Brand and Communication, TM who attended the programme commented: “This training follows a series of previous successful training, from the Disaster Preparedness Training in 2015 and Humanitarian Logistics and Supply Chain Management Training in 2016. This year, we aim to continue providing the knowledge and skills essential for disaster preparedness and humanitarian response. This time around, the focus was on swift water safety. As we cannot predict where or when the next disaster will strike, we need to always be ready. Past experiences have taught us on the importance of working together in emergency response efforts in order to reduce and mitigate disaster risks and wastages. So the disaster scenario simulation exercise conducted during the training allows for a realistic response to potentially real disasters.” “This training also serves as a platform to integrate the functions and responsibilities within TM itself, GDRN members and relevant Government Agencies in leveraging resources effectively during disaster situations. We hope that this pro-active approach focusing on preparedness will help to improve the emergency response efforts if the actual situation occurs,” he added. The training provided the participants with an in-depth understanding of emergency relief works which include the standard operating procedures, logistics, fleet, supply chain and warehouse management as well as personal health, safety and security risks during disasters. Besides that, the participants were also exposed to Swift Water Swimming, Basic Swift Water Safety and Rescue and Basic Boat Paddling.
