Deputy Communications and Multimedia Minister Zahidi Zainul has called upon MACC to investigate DNB’s 5G rollout since it involved public funds. He doesn’t want DNB to become another financial scandal.

, urging them to investigate DNB to ensure good governance and transparency in the 5G rollout to prevent a potential financial scandal.

During the memorandum handover ceremony, Zahidi Zainul has also reiterated calls for MACC to investigate DNB, claiming that they are using public funds. He also said DNB does not empower Bumiputeras as they lack locals among its top officials. In December last year, he said in a Parliament press conference that both former Communications and Multimedia Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Abdullah, and current Finance Minister, Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Azizand the MCMC couldn’t explain why DNB is a monopoly for 5G. He said he was probably kept in the dark as Saifuddin was previously from a different party while he was with UMNO.

One of the major issues with DNB’s Reference Access Offer is the fixed 5G wholesale pricing of RM30,000 per Gbps per month that’s locked to a period of 10 years. It was also reported that the major telcos are expected to pay DNB between RM7.4 billion to RM8.4 billion each over 9 years. This forecasted amount for telcos to ”rent” 5G access from DNB is costlier than building and managing their own 5G network.
