REDtone to roll out WiMAX in Sarawak soon?
Posted on March 27th, 2009 2 comments
According to sources close to us, REDtone, one of the four WiMAX players in Malaysia would be launched officially in Kuching, Sarawak pretty soon.
For those who haven’t heard, Redtone is the only WiMAX licensee to start rolling out in East Malaysia. It was the 2nd WiMAX operator to launch shortly after P1 in August 2008. Branded as REDtone WiMAX, it initially covers Kota Kinabalu, Sabah but we have yet to hear any buzz from them.
Apparently the offering in Kuching is said to be from RM138/month and equipment would be using Motorola‘s WiMAX range.
Watch this space as we will try to update once we receive confirmed intel.
In the news however, it was reported that REDtone is spending RM20 million this year for WiMAX coverage. Apparently they claim to have WiMAX coverage at Kota Kinabalu and Kuching already. Now they are looking at covering Tawau & Miri.
We would like to see REDtone to launch their services fully and reach out to fill the broadband gap in Sabah and Sarawak immediately.
