Thanks Josh and Co. for this initiative. I personally would like to see new players to come into the broadband market, provide good values to the customers and shake up the whole broadband market. There is so much growth potential here and certainly good broadband coverage is the foundation for us to compete with the rest of the world. Before we go for One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) initiative, let us strive for Broadband2EveryHome!
Because broadband here is inadequate.
Because it makes our work harder if we don’t have a good internet connection
Because we love Malaysia, and don’t want Malaysia to (literally) lag behind other countries.
Because we believe we can make a difference.
This is a self-funded and developed project, not officially supported by any telco, ISP or government agency. However, this may change in the time to come, only if it fits with our end objective of improving broadband service in Malaysia.
There are already many ISPs/telcos/wirelss broadband service providers in Malayisa. The real question to ask is WHY they have not succeeded in getting broadband to more people. Just geeting more players into the market does not necessary equal more broadband users. Perhaps some of the knowledgeable sources should let us know why they are having problems with providing more broadband services???
