Statement on discontinuation of new registration for unifi LITE and Business Broadband
As we embrace the digital lifestyle, we can expect an increase in consumer demand for faster connectivity. To satisfy this need, Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) through unifi continues to drive digital connectivity through the accelerated expansion of fibre network nationwide. This is also in support of the Jalinan Digital Negara (JENDELA) action plan to deliver enhanced connectivity experience to all Malaysians.
Towards this end, as well as in answering the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC)'s call for the provision of high-speed broadband services, unifi has discontinued new registrations for its copper-based broadband services, namely unifi Lite (Streamyx) and Business Broadband.
We wish to inform that all our existing unifi Lite and Business Broadband customers will be migrated to the fibre-based unifi service in phases, expected to be completed by 2025. We will reach out to these customers via emails, letters, calls and SMSes, to ensure a seamless migration experience. Until then, all existing unifi Lite and Business Broadband customers will still enjoy their broadband service as is, with no disruption.
Should these customers be interested to upgrade their subscription to any of the fibre-based unifi packages that provide more value for their money before the migration exercise, they can reach out to us via 100, Live Chat at unifi.com.my, the myunifi app, or just visit any nearest TMpoint.

The Group’s operating revenue increased by 0.5% year-on-year (YoY) to RM2.85 billion, primarily driven by higher revenue from data, other telecommunication services and education segment. Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) stood at RM550.3 million due to the shift in recognition of 5G access costs, higher device costs in line with stronger device revenue and unfavourable foreign exchange movements. Consequently, Profit After Tax and Non-Controlling Interests (PATAMI) came in at RM401.2 million, a 5.6% decline YoY, partially mitigated by lower net finance costs. Capital expenditure (CAPEX) for the quarter was RM280.0 million, accounting for 9.8% of revenue, on track to meet the 2025 guidance range. The majority of it focused on expanding digital infrastructure such as existing data centres, domestic fibre network and submarine cable systems, which are crucial for a thriving and vibrant digital ecosystem.

Nevertheless, our fundamentals remain strong, marked by steady performance, continued operational efficiency, and a growing customer base.” “During the quarter, we sustained fixed broadband subscribers' growth and continued to delight our customers through attractive Unifi UniVerse bundled device offerings, delivering seamless home internet, mobile and lifestyle solutions. This further reinforced our position as Malaysia’s Convergence Champion with the only quad-play services. We also observed positive traction on our national cloud solutions that enable digital transformation across enterprise and public sectors, alongside significant data demand from hyperscalers. In addition, our recent strategic collaboration with U Mobile to provide high-capacity 5G fibre backhaul is a testament of TM’s strength and ability to deliver at scale, speed and quality.” “We remain focused on strengthening our core to better position ourselves in capitalising emerging opportunities such as data centres, GPU-as-a-Service, cloud and smart services. These efforts are underpinned by our nation-building commitments especially in talent development, community initiatives, and digital empowerment, driving digital inclusivity and ensuring no one is left behind. By aligning business growth with meaningful impact, we demonstrate that commercial success and achieving a higher purpose can go hand in hand, bringing us closer to our aspiration of becoming a Digital Powerhouse by 2030 and position Malaysia as the digital hub of ASEAN,” Amar concluded.
