Last week, the government announced that telecommunications companies would not impose additional fees on their subscribers who want to upgrade to 5G.
Now, MCMC will lend its support to the government to enforce this new ruling.
U Mobile, Maxis, and Yes 5G have been offering free access to the 5G network since last year
Following Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil's announcement on the matter, certain telcos allegedly still offer 5G access as a separate "booster" add-on with a pricing different from existing plans.
