The Prime Minister YAB Dato’ Seri Najib Tun Razak will be the guest of honour at the main event in Dataran Merdeka on 24 March 2010, when he will launch both the National Broadband Implementation (NBI) initiative and TM’s next-generation HSBB service — which is also one of the NBI’s flagship initiative.
The NBI launch will feature a live crossover feed to Sarawak, while TM will be unveiling the new branding for its HSBB service. The HSBB retail offering will comprise triple-play services of voice, video (IPTV and Video on Demand), and High Speed Internet starting from speeds of 10Mbps and upwards.
