KUCHING: Residents in Sabah now have an additional choice for broadband services with the entry of Packet One Networks (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd (P1), Malaysia’s first and largest 4G service provider with over 400,000 subscribers.
The company has an aggressive network deployment plan aimed at providing up to 80 per cent of household coverage in urban Kota Kinabalu in under just three months by the end of 2012.
P1 announced earlier this year that it would commit RM30 million to provide East Malaysians with 4G broadband service with phase one network deployment focused on Kota Kinabalu, Sandakan, and Tawau.
P1 chief executive officer Michael Lai said, “We are truly excited to be able to serve high speed broadband services to East Malaysians.
“With our plug and play broadband services, you can do away with wires and the hassle of installation, plus it has the added advantage of being nomadic even for fixed-wireless home access.” P1 will start by offering its staple ForHome fixed-wireless broadband plan, which recently won the company the honour of being the ‘Best Home Wireless Broadband Provider’ at GoMobile Operators Awards 2012.
According to Lai, P1’s fixed-wireless broadband services provide many benefits around speed, ease-of-use and convenience.
But mostly, P1 plans are popular because of the fantastic value built in that enable more people to enjoy rich Internet media affordably.
Residents of Kota Kinabalu who are interested to find out more and experience P1 broadband service can visit P1’s first centre at Lintas Square which officially opened on July 11.
Derek Chee, P1’s channel sales director, who was at the centre opening, said that another P1 centre would soon be opened in December to serve Kota Kinabalu residents.
