00:00Telecom Malaysia Berhard has asserted that the termination of its 5G agreement with Digital National Berhard is valid despite DNB
00:09disputing the company's exit from the access agreement.
00:13PM said it exercised its contractual rights under the agreement in strict compliance with the specific terms concerning early termination
00:20of the deal on the 5G dual network model.
00:23It added that it would pursue the appropriate dispute resolution mechanisms provided under the agreement and has reserved all its
00:30rights.
00:32TM also said its priority is ensuring uninterrupted services as it transitions to U-Mobile, Sundered Berhard's 5G network.
00:40Last week, TM announced that it would terminate the 5G deal inked with DNB on October 30, 2022 and obtain
00:475G connectivity via U-Mobile.
00:49It's said that as per the access agreement, TM could cancel the contract within 30 days after 5G services are
00:56commercially launched by a different operator.
00:59However, DNB rejected TM's notice and insisted that the contract, which was until October 2032, remained valid, binding and enforceable.
