Celcom and Digi’s combined market share for mobile subscribers will be more than 67% following the merger.

He said that although the merger does not come under MyCC’s purview, the commission should be allowed to study it for pre-approval. In the case of the telecommunications sector, the regulator is the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission , which has given its assurance that it has tools in place to prevent monopolies.“The reality is that Celcom and Digi’s combined market share for mobile subscribers is over 67%. Such market dominance will hurt competition and this ultimately hurts consumers,” he told FMT.
