Telekom Malaysia Bhd (TM) will launch its next-generation high-speed broadband (HSBB) retail service at Dataran Merdeka here on March 24. In a statement, TM said the launch would feature showcases and interactive exhibitions to demonstrate the high-speed broadband lifestyle.
"The launch venue will be opened from 7.00pm onwards and the HSBB showcase and interactive exhibitions will remain at Dataran Merdeka until Thursday evening (March 25). "These showcases will feature multimedia applications for entertainment –- including interactive games and Internet Protocol Television (IPTV)," it said.
TM invites the public to see, touch and feel the exhibits and showcases to experience how it will be like to live and work in a high-speed broadband-enabled environment. The viewing times for the showcases are: March 24 (7.00pm–10.30pm) and March 25 (8.00pm–10.00pm). There will also be entertainment and activities like games and contests, lucky draws and open air concerts featuring Bunkface, Aizat, Pop Shuvit, Faizal Tahir, Tomok and Stacy.
To mark the countdown to the launch, Menara TM will be lit up every evening from Mar 18, with a graphical countdown projection beam depicting the number ''1'' of 1Malaysia leading up to the gala launch date. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak will be the guest of honour at the main event in Dataran Merdeka were he will launch both the National Broadband Implementation (NBI) initiative and TM’s HSBB service -- which is also one of the NBI’s flagship initiative. The NBI launch will feature a live crossover feed to Sarawak, while TM will be unveiling the new branding for its HSBB service.
The HSBB retail offering will comprise triple-play services of voice, video (IPTV and video on demand), and high-speed Internet starting from speeds of 10Mbps and upwards. The RM11.3 billion project, signed in September 2008, is a public-private partnership agreement between TM and the Malaysian government to develop next generation HSBB infrastructure and services for the nation. TM is putting up RM8.9 billion while the government is contributing RM2.4 billion on an incurred claims basis based on project milestones reached by TM. By end-2012 -- in accordance with the completion of the first phase of the national HSBB project roll-out as agreed with the Government -- approximately 1.3 million premises will have access to the HSBB services. These nationwide areas -- identified as Zone 1 (key economic areas) -- include the Inner Klang Valley, Iskandar Malaysia and key industrial sites around the nation.
