Kampung Tanpa Wayar, CBCs and Rural
Wireless Towers have been commissioned
in 2011, exceeding the target of only 902,
for this EPP. These are indicated in Exhibit
9.4.
Moving Forward
MCMC together with the Ministry of
Information, Communications and Culture
will continue to build and commission
1,600 more sites nationwide, expand the
wireless towers and community broadband
centres in 2012.
With regards to Community Broadband
Centres, MCMC in collaboration with EPU
will address all telecentres around the
country to ensure better coordination and
uniform experience for the rakyat.
EPP 9
This EPP aims to address the affordability
and quality of Malaysia’s internet services
by creating tiered broadband price plans
based on priority of service and usage
caps. Network operators were encouraged
to develop differentiated packages that
catered to the broad spectrum of user
needs, from the high-end segment that is
willing to pay for faster speeds to the more
price-conscious users who desire lower
barriers to entry and functionally sufficient
services.
It is also an instrument to fairly charge
the small minority of users who
consume a disproportionate amount of
bandwidth.
Achievements
The service providers have responded to
the smart network call by the proliferation
of tiered packages for the market.
Coupled with the National Broadband
Initiative by the Ministry of Information,
Communications and Culture and market
response, the number of subscribers
for such packages surpassed the initial
industry target of 15 per cent of total
packages available in the market.
