Better internet experience for Streamyx and unifi customers nationwide
TM Submits Plan to KKMM and MCMC On the back of the successful upgrade of 973,000 unifi customers to higher speeds, Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) today submitted a plan to the Ministry of Communications and Multimedia (KKMM) and Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to address the remaining 934,000 Streamyx and unifi customers to further increase the overall coverage and internet quality of the nation. The announcement of the plan was made by Tuan Haji Rosli Man, Chairman of TM Group, at the press conference in conjunction with Kembara Digital Malaysia held in Ipoh. Also present at the event were YB Gobind Singh Deo, Minister of Communications and Multimedia; Dato’ Suriani Dato’ Ahmad, Secretary General of KKMM; Tuan Al-Ishsal Ishak, Chairman of MCMC; Dato’ Noor Kamarul Anuar Nuruddin, Group Chief Executive Officer, TM; and Imri Mokhtar, Chief Operating Officer, TM. TM intends to also seek support from Government of Malaysia for this implementation utilising existing funding to deliver better broadband services to rural and sub-urban areas, in line with the National Fiberisation and Connectivity Plan (NFCP). TM will be addressing the copper network challenges via various technologies such as fibre, wireless and GigaWire in a network rollout which will involve a phased customer migration starting today until 2021. It is expected that 70% of these customers will be able to enjoy unifi services by end 2020. TM also announced a new entry level broadband package of up to 8Mbps at RM89 a month for residential customers. Meanwhile, existing Streamyx residential customers will enjoy this offer at RM69 a month. In addition, a wireless broadband alternative will be launched to address the issues faced by Streamyx customers today; while the network is being rolled out until 2021. Details will be announced very soon under its #khabarbaik programme. Tuan Haji Rosli said, “We are committed to resolve the Streamyx issues and believe that the plan is the way forward to address not only the limitation of the copper broadband network, but also to lay the foundation for a better internet experience for all existing and future customers nationwide. We look forward to a collaborative approach, working closely with the Government, Ministry and MCMC to effectively deliver high speed broadband experience towards realising Malaysia’s Digital Nation aspirations.” TM completed its internet upgrade programme in April 2019 with 973,000 unifi customers upgraded to 10 times the existing speed; 266,000 Streamyx customers in unifi coverage areas upgraded to unifi and 226,000 Streamyx customers in non-unifi coverage areas upgraded to 2 times existing speed where technology permits. This exercise has helped to uplift Malaysia’s position in global high speed connectivity rankings. In February 2019, the Speedtest Global Index by Ookla reported that fixed broadband download speeds in Malaysia increased by almost threefold to 70.18Mbps as compared to 22.26Mbps a year ago. Malaysia is now ranked 28th in the world as compared with 56th in 2017. Further, the MCMC has also reported that the number of fixed broadband subscriptions with download speeds of more than 100Mbps have risen tremendously from 150,000 in 2017 to 1.2 million subscribers in 2018.

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.
