KUALA LUMPUR, 30 August 2026 – When Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj proclaimed “Merdeka” on 31 August 1957, his voice echoed across Malaya, carrying the hopes of a nation newly free. Beyond Stadium Merdeka, however, another story was unfolding – a group of people working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that this historic moment could be heard across the country.
This year, Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) brings this lesser-known story to life through Gema Malaysia, a short film inspired by an article published in The Malay Mail on 31 August 1957. The film pays tribute to the unsung heroes of the then Telecommunications Department, whose dedication and sacrifice helped carry the voice of independence to the nation.
Inspired by true events, Gema Malaysia combines the emotional weight of history with creative storytelling. Where archival visual references were limited, digital technology and artificial intelligence (AI) were selectively used to support the visual reconstruction of the era. These elements were guided by research and available historical references to preserve the authenticity and spirit of the story.
At its heart, the film is a reminder that behind every defining moment are people whose names may never be known—people who step forward, persevere and serve so that the nation can continue to move ahead. The title itself means “the echo of Malaysia”, reflecting how a single act of service can transcend generations and help shape its future.
Dato’ Zainal Abidin Putih, Chairman of TM, said, “Gema Malaysia pays tribute to the dedication and sense of duty of those who worked tirelessly to ensure the voice of independence reached the nation. Their story reminds us that Malaysia’s progress has always been built by people who serve with purpose and step forward when it matters most.
“As TM celebrates 80 years alongside the nation, we carry this spirit forward. As Malaysia’s digital orchestrator, we will continue to connect Malaysians to opportunity and harness technology to advance the nation. This is how we bring our aspiration to become a Digital Powerhouse by 2030 to life, carrying a progressive spirit of Merdeka towards a more inclusive future for all,” he added.
From carrying the voice of Merdeka in 1957 to enabling the possibilities of a digital nation today, TM’s journey remains closely intertwined with Malaysia’s progress. For 80 years, generations of Warga TM have upheld the responsibility of connecting communities to opportunities, Malaysia to the world, and today’s aspirations to tomorrow’s possibilities. Through Gema Malaysia, TM celebrates a progressive spirit of independence—one rooted in service, strengthened through unity and carried forward by every generation towards a more inclusive future.

CYBERJAYA, 26 AUGUST 2026 — Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) today marked its 80th anniversary, reaffirming its role in Malaysia's development, and committing to an inclusive digital future built on trusted infrastructure, local talent and stronger national capabilities.
The TM80: Merentasi Generasi celebration, held at Multimedia University (MMU) Cyberjaya, was officiated by Prime Minister YAB Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Also in attendance was Dato’ Seri Amirudin bin Shari, Chief Minister of Selangor; Dato' Seri Fahmi Fadzil, Minister of Communications; Tan Sri Shamsul Azri bin Abu Bakar, Chief Secretary to the Government of Malaysia; and Tan Sri Mohamad Salim Fateh, Chairman of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission.
The celebration captured TM’s journey, and the people and technologies that empowered Malaysia. From postal and telegram services to the first wired connections that broadcasted Tunku Abdul Rahman's proclamation of “Merdeka”, and every digital milestone after, TM80 is the story of generations of Malaysians growing alongside the nation’s progress.
Dato' Zainal Abidin Putih, Chairman of TM said, “For over eight decades, technologies have changed and generations of Malaysians have come and gone. But one responsibility has endured, our commitment to connect the people and the nation. For TM, this goes beyond providing networks. It means driving a progressive Digital Malaysia, for a more inclusive future.”
“As a national digital champion recognised on the global stage, we hold ourselves to worldclass standards, because Malaysia deserves nothing less. That is the spirit behind our commitment across eight decades as well as our Digital Powerhouse 2030 aspiration – to create opportunities, bridge Malaysia to the world, and lay the pathway from today to the future.”
ADVANCING INCLUSIVE DIGITAL PROGRESS
TM believes digital progress must reach all Malaysians. From major cities to rural communities and remote islands, TM continues to extend connectivity using fibre, wireless, satellite and other technologies suited to local and geographical needs.
At Kampung Mukut in Pulau Tioman, fibre connectivity delivered via a 75-kilometre submarine cable powers village-wide WiFi. Vision AI CCTVs help keep the village safe and manage visitor flows, while local entrepreneurs use visitmukut.com, a community-run tourism platform to showcase their services. Lessons from Mukut are now extended across Tioman through Sekolah Angkat MADANI and digital empowerment programmes. Warga TM also keep networks running during times of crisis such as the pandemic, floods and other emergencies. Beyond specialised technicians, customer support teams and personnel across the country, the trained Rejimen Semboyan Pakar Telekom Askar Wataniah restore communications, safeguard assets, and deliver aid when communities need them most.
TM's partnership with the neurodivergent community including NAK SENI, ZimiJ and the Early Autism Project, has also created platforms for visibility and participation, while its support for the National Sepak Takraw Squad enables athletes from grassroots development to national representation.
DEVELOPING LOCAL TALENT
Beyond communities, TM continues to develop talent. In 1996, MMU became Malaysia's first private university, nurturing the talent a digital economy would need. Today, it has produced more than 80,000 graduates and has over 18,000 students enrolled.
Through MMU and other programmes such as TM Future Skills (TMFS), Yayasan TM (YTM), TVET MADANI, Sekolah Angkat Malaysia MADANI, and other programmes, TM empowers future engineers, entrepreneurs and industry leaders. This includes bringing STEM, coding, robotics, AI and holistic character development to 35 adopted schools nationwide, while MMU's Faculty of Artificial Intelligence and Engineering prepares the next generation of AI, cloud and cybersecurity specialists.
OPENING MALAYSIA TO THE WORLD
Since the SEACOM submarine cable of 1964 linked Malaysia to international networks, and the Kuantan Earth Satellite Station in 1970 broadcasted the Ali-Frazier fight directly to Malaysian homes, TM has opened the world to Malaysia, and Malaysia to the world.
Today, TM's international network of more than 400,000 kilometres across 39 submarine cable systems positions Malaysia as a connector of East and West, strengthening global data and trade flows. TM's participation in global consortiums continues to build links between Malaysia, ASEAN and the rest of the world, while its latest Morib Cable Landing Station, the fifth in the country, strengthens international access and route diversity.
Adding to this integrated ecosystem, TM operates six data centres and is adding new capacity through the TM Nxera regional campus that is built international sustainability standards. Beyond infrastructure, TM’s AI Centre of Excellence obtained the international ISO/IEC 42001:2023 Artificial Intelligence Management System certification, making TM the first telecommunications company in Malaysia to obtain these international AI credentials.
While technology and the needs of the nation will continue to change, TM remains committed to the same responsibility – to lay the inclusive digital foundations for the country, even before it begins to need it.
KUALA LUMPUR, 20 AUGUST 2026 – Telekom Malaysia Berhad (“TM” or “the Group”) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended 30 June 2026 (2Q 2026), recording a 6.8% increase in revenue to RM2.96 billion compared with the same period last year. The performance was supported by growth across all customer segments and continued traction in convergence, enterprise digital solutions and regional digital infrastructure.
The Group maintained resilient underlying performance while advancing its strategic growth priorities. Underlying Profit After Tax and Non-Controlling Interests (PATAMI) increased 4.6% to RM406.3 million in 2Q 2026, supported by resilient core operations and lower net financing costs. On a reported basis, PATAMI stood at RM365.5 million after accounting for costs related to Prihatin and foreign-exchange movements.
For the first half of 2026 (1H 2026), revenue grew 4.8% to RM5.90 billion. Underlying PATAMI increased 7.0% to RM842.6 million compared with the same period last year, while the reported PATAMI stood at RM687.0 million. The performance remained encouraging despite significant year-on-year adjustments, including the previously announced 5G capacity write-down and other one-off costs. These costs were specific to the period and non-recurring in nature.
These strategic actions taken will strengthen TM’s operating efficiency and support sustainable long-term growth. Backed by its resilient underlying performance, the Group remains confident in delivering its FY2026 guidance and maintaining its commitment to sustainable dividends for shareholders.
Reflecting this positive performance and commitment to value creation, the Board declared a second interim dividend of 7.0 sen per share. This brings the total dividend for 1H 2026 to 13.5 sen per share, representing 75% of reported PATAMI, higher than the same period last year.
Meanwhile, Capital expenditure (CAPEX) stood at RM555.7 million in 1H 2026, representing 9.4% of revenue, with investments focused on growth initiatives, such as data centre, cloud, GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaas) and access to 5G. CAPEX is expected to catch up in the second half of the year as the Group accelerates planned investments, in line with its full-year guidance.
Datuk Amar Huzaimi Md Deris, TM Group Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our overall performance demonstrates how the PWR 2030 strategy is delivering tangible progress across the Group. For consumers, we are strengthening Unifi’s convergence proposition by delivering greater value across broadband, mobile and smart home AI solutions, while making premium content more accessible through Unifi TV, such as the FIFA World Cup 2026™. For enterprises and the Government, we are progressing higher value, “nationally hosted” digital solutions, including cloud, cybersecurity, smart services and AI platforms. At the same time, we continue to strengthen our regional connectivity and data centre infrastructure to capture growing demand from hyperscalers and AI-driven workloads.
“Embracing AI and sustainability remain integral to our transformation. Guided by Prosperity, Planet and People, we are ensuring that TM’s growth strengthens business resilience, advances environmental stewardship and enables inclusive digital progress.
“We have taken bold but necessary strategic actions in the first half to strengthen TM’s efficiency, competitiveness and profitability in the long run. With the disciplined execution we have continued to demonstrate, coupled with our focus on growing higher-value recurring revenue across all customer segments, we remain on track to deliver our FY2026 guidance and value-creation commitments, including sustainable shareholder returns. These efforts will further reinforce TM’s role as the nation’s digital orchestrator and advance our Digital Powerhouse 2030 aspiration,” he added.
Growth Across Business Segments in 1H 2026
- B2C (Unifi): Revenue grew 5.2% to RM2.91 billion in 1H 2026, supported by stronger adoption of device-bundled and converged offerings across broadband, mobile, content and smart home solutions. The fixed broadband subscriber base remained stable at 3.23 million despite the competitive market landscape, indicating effective campaign execution. Encouraging demand for cloud and cybersecurity solutions among MSMEs through Unifi Business also contributed to a stronger overall Unifi revenue mix. Moving forward, Unifi will reinforce its convergence leadership by strengthening mobile and smart home value proposition; expanding content-led bundles through next-generation TV, building on the FIFA World Cup 2026™ momentum; enhancing customer experience through agentic AI and digital self-care; and expanding digital solutions for MSMEs.
- B2B (TM One and Credence): Revenue increased 1.9% to RM1.36 billion in 1H 2026, supported by continued demand for connectivity and advanced digital solutions from enterprises and the Government. The Government segment growth was driven by new wins and renewals across cloud, contact centre outsourcing, smart services and cybersecurity, alongside recurring connectivity demand for national strategic projects. The Enterprise segment’s performance remained healthy, supported by connectivity renewals, new data services win in the banking sector and an M2M eSIM project enabling in-vehicle connectivity for a national automotive player. Moving forward, TM One will expand higher-value recurring services across connectivity, cloud, cybersecurity, smart services and AI, further strengthening its role as the trusted digital partner for enterprises and the Government.
- C2C (TM Global): Revenue rose 6.8% to RM1.55 billion in 1H 2026, supported by sustained momentum across data centre, international data and 5G backhaul services.

The Group reiterated its revised dividend policy with a minimum payout of 75% of Profit After Tax and Non-Controlling Interests (“PATAMI”).

Commenting on TM’s continued transformation journey, Amar said, “To strengthen how we create value, we are accelerating AI and digital innovation capabilities while embedding sustainability more deeply across our business, operations and strategic investments. This strengthens our ability to support evolving digital needs across businesses, communities and the nation.”
During the year, the Group strengthened its role as an orchestrator of Malaysia’s AI and digital ecosystem by building the infrastructure, platforms and governance needed to support wider AI adoption. This includes AI-ready data centres, GPU-as-a-Service, cloud and cybersecurity capabilities, alongside AI-enabled solutions such as Vision AI, Smart Cities and Smart Urban Forestry for enterprises, the Government and global hyperscalers.

TIOMAN ISLAND, 27 May 2026 – After a five-year hiatus in performing ibadah korban due to logistical constraints and limited livestock supply, the community of Kampung Mukut in Pulau Tioman is once again able to observe Aidiladha meaningfully this year. This significant moment was made possible through the Aidiladha 1447H Ibadah Korban Programme organised by Telekom Malaysia Berhad (“TM” or “the Group”) under its Jangkau Digital TM social impact initiative.
For communities in Pulau Tioman, carrying out ibadah korban is not without its challenges. Difficulties in sourcing livestock and the logistical complexity of transporting them across the sea have often posed barriers. Recognising these challenges, TM coordinated the delivery of 11 cattle to the island on 20 May, fully bearing the transportation and management costs to ensure the smooth execution of the programme.
The ibadah korban activities were carried out across several locations, including Kampung Tekek, Kampung Mukut, Kampung Salang, and Kampung Juara, ensuring that the benefits could be shared among residents across the island.
TM Chief Corporate Officer, Nor Fadhilah Mohd Ali, said the programme carries deep significance for TM, particularly in supporting Kampung Mukut its adopted village. “We are truly honoured to help revive the Aidiladha tradition for the community in Kampung Mukut, as well as across other villages in Tioman. Jangkau Digital TM is not just about providing access to technology, but about being a caring partner that delivers meaningful impact in the everyday lives of communities,” she further added.
This year’s ibadah korban also saw active participation from TM employees who worked hand in hand with the local community, reflecting the spirit of togetherness that lies at the heart of Aidiladha. Appreciation is extended to all parties who contributed to ensuring the successful implementation of the programme.
Meanwhile, the Village Head of Kampung Tekek and Kampung Air Batang, Abd. Hafaz Bin A. Hamid, expressed his gratitude for TM’s initiative. “This effort creates opportunities for the Pulau Tioman community to perform ibadah korban more easily. Aidiladha becomes more meaningful when we can come together, share our blessings, and strengthen our bonds,” he said.
The programme forms part of TM’s broader integrated community development framework, encompassing initiatives in local economic empowerment, digital skills development, and environmental conservation. Through this approach, TM remains committed to ensuring that communities in remote areas continue to benefit from balanced and sustainable development.

Telekom Malaysia (“TM”, “the Company”) is aware of reports concerning certain former employees of TM USA Inc.
These individuals are no longer employed by the Company. The Company had earlier initiated its own investigation pursuant to suspicion of misconduct by the individuals, which led to their dismissal. Information from the investigation was then shared with the relevant authorities. The matter is currently under the purview of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the US Court. The Company will continue to extend its full cooperation to the DOJ.
TM upholds strict governance and compliance standards and does not tolerate any form of misconduct.
Iskandar Puteri, 16 April 2026 – TM Nxera, the joint venture between Telekom Malaysia (TM) and Nxera, Singtel Digital InfraCo’s regional data centre arm, celebrated the topping-out of its AI-ready, hyperconnected data centre in Iskandar Puteri, Johor – a development set to power Malaysia’s next phase of AI-driven growth and strengthen its role as a regional digital hub.
The ceremony signifies the completion of the first building’s structural framework, a decisive step forward in the construction and systems integration phase. Since groundbreaking in July 2024 and securing a multi-year electricity supply agreement with Tenaga Nasional for 280MW of power earlier this year, the data centre is now entering the customer onboarding and commercial operations stage.
Mahathir Said, CEO of TM Nxera, said, “Today’s topping-out ceremony reflects our strong execution as we move toward delivering the first building of our campus, with scalability up to 200MW, making it one of the largest AI-ready campuses in Malaysia. Aiming for Power Usage Effectiveness of ≤1.30 at full load, advanced liquid cooling technologies and renewable energy integration, the data centre is optimised for demanding high compute and ultra-low latency AI workloads, enabling enterprises to deploy AI at-scale.”
“Backed by TM and Singtel’s extensive cross-border terrestrial fibre and subsea connectivity, the campus is engineered to support hyperscalers, AI innovators and enterprises seeking resilient, high‑performance and sustainable data centre solutions. Having already received strong interest and demand from hyperscalers and enterprises, we are focused on building scalable, future‑ready digital infrastructure that contributes to digital transformation across industries and fosters a thriving digital ecosystem,” he added.
With structural works now completed, TM Nxera will proceed with mechanical and electrical installations, systems integration and commissioning. The campus remains on track to begin its first phase of commercial operations by the second half of 2026, enabling customers to plan cloud and AI deployments with confidence.
