is just right around the corner, there’s still a huge connectivity gap when you compare rural and big cities in Malaysia. According to Opensignal’s latest report, Malaysians in very low populated areas are hardly getting consistent 4G and it reinforces the need for theTo measure the connectivity gap, Opensignal has mapped its 4G availability findings against the latest Malaysian Government Open data.
For districts with a population density of 50 people per square KM and below, 4G availability is at 62.3% while in districts with a sparse population of under 10 people per square KM, it went down to just 44%. That’s almost 40% gap with high-density areas. As a comparison, residents in larger towns and cities with population above 100 people per square KM are getting at least 76.5% 4G availability. Even if you include 3G coverage in the equation, the least populated districts are only getting 72.9% availability. This means they are getting at least 3G 3/4 the time and for the remaining 1/4, they are either getting just 2G or possibly no signal at all.
With poor connectivity, people living in remote towns will not enjoy the same opportunity as urban areas. For operators, it may not be feasible to expand its network in low-density areas. Apart from the high cost of setting up infrastructure in remote areas, it makes more business sense to put more network investment in areas that can serve more customers.
