Celcom
(Malaysia) Berhad, a brand synonymous with powerful mobile products and
services, today launched Celcom Broadband, a new service that enables its
customers to enjoy high speed data connectivity
on the go for business and personal use, anytime, anywhere and at affordable
rates.
With
Celcom Broadband, Celcom now becomes the only mobile operator in Malaysia
to offer daily unlimited mobile broadband services anytime, anywhere to its
subscribers nationwide. It also makes Celcom the fastest mobile
broadband provider with speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps based on High Speed Data
Packet Access (HSDPA) technology, or better known as 3GX.
Commenting on this new
package, Dato' Sri Shazalli Ramly, Chief Executive Officer of Celcom (Malaysia) Berhad said, "Celcom Broadband
offers our customers wireless internet access, with the widest 3G and 3GX
coverage in Malaysia.
This new package is also structured to provide flexibility and full mobility to
users with low entry cost and commitment."
He
added, "We are targeting areas that do not have fixed broadband, especially
housing areas. Most of our sites are now HSDPA-enabled, which allow our
customers to stay connected at all times,"
"Our Daily Unlimited Plan offers convenience
for occasional users who now don't have the hassle of searching for a WiFi
hotspot. Our customers can also enjoy the flexibility and choice of using the
service with any 3G or 3Gx enabled device," Concluded Dato' Sri Shazalli.
