SUBANG JAYA, SEP 28: The average internet connection speed is expected to reach 20 megabytes per second (Mbps) with the Centralised BBU System (CBS).
Platinum Core Solution (PCS) Managing Director, Malik Faizal Bakar said the company provides infrastructure for mobile operators to provide the fastest internet access.
He said they are adapting a similar method practiced in South Korea, which is among countries with the world’s fastest Internet access.
“They have the ‘blueprint’ for this kind of thing and it is done in a structured, integrated and comprehensive manner and not unorganised.
“There is no such thing here, so we are in the phase to educate the community at the same time implement this new technology to provide a better infrastructure.
“With a good infrastructure and organised and thorough planning, we can certainly achieve 20Mbps,” he said at a press conference.
He was at the CBS Launching Ceremony which was also attended by the Local Government, New Village Development and Illegal Factory Legalisation Exco, Ean Yong Hian Wah.
Based on the 2017 Quarter One Internet Report by an international content delivery network service provider, Akamai, Malaysia recorded an average connection speed of 8.9 Mbps, far behind Singapore with 184.5 Mbps speed.
