If you’re one of those still holding on to 3G phones or have not subscribed to 4G yet, now’s the time to do so.

As previously reported, 3G networks in Malaysia will be phased out by the end of the year under the Jendela (Jalinan Digital Negara) digital infrastructure initiative. The government is aiming to upgrade more networks into 4G to achieve significant coverage nationwide, as part of a plan to enable the full deployment of 5G.
