This comes after Anwar said last month that the introduction of a second 5G network would allow more effective participation by China’s digital giant Huawei with a provision of both “Western and Eastern technology”. He also said that the need for a second 5G network has not been firmly established, since DNB “seems to have done a good job” in rolling out coverage and has been ranked with one of the fastest 5G speeds by independent watchdog Opensignal.

“If both speed and coverage of the existing 5G network are more than sufficient, is there a need then for a second network?” he asked.
