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.

These results underscore TM’s resilience in an increasingly dynamic and competitive market. The Group’s operating revenue recorded a positive trajectory, increasing 0.2% year-on-year (YoY) to RM11.71 billion, while EBIT strengthened by 11.3%, from RM2.09 billion to RM2.33 billion. The EBIT performance exceeded the Group’s market guidance, driven primarily by higher yield products and services, lower operating costs from improved efficiency, and lower depreciation and amortisation costs. Meanwhile, PATAMI increased 7.8% from RM1.87 billion to RM2.02 billion contributed by improved operating profits, lower net finance costs, and utilisation of remaining one-off tax adjustments. The overall encouraging performance is supported by a robust balance sheet and healthy cash reserves, showcasing TM’s strong operational fundamentals and financial position. TM continued to invest strategically in network infrastructure, international submarine cables and data centres in FY2024. Its total capital expenditure (CAPEX) amounted to RM1.59 billion, representing 13.6% of total revenue – well within its guidance range.

Our success is further bolstered by strategic collaborations with government agencies and enterprises, accelerating digital transformation through solutions such as Smart Services, Sovereign Cloud, and Cybersecurity. In addition, we expanded our core digital infrastructure, including nationwide fibre network, broadband coverage, 5G mobile backhaul, data centres and submarine cables - all critical to foster digital inclusivity. This reinforces TM’s role as the digital catalyst connecting Malaysia to the world and the world to Malaysia. “In essence, our core businesses remain resilient, sustaining positive revenue trajectory amidst heightened competitive pressure and market dynamics. At the same time, our internal efficiencies remain robust as evident in our strong EBIT and PATAMI, providing a solid foundation and strategic edge to propel TM forward. This has poised us to better capitalise emerging opportunities such as hyperconnected data centres, AI, and GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) which are among the new growth areas for TM. These efforts will not only drive us closer to our aspiration of becoming a Digital Powerhouse by 2030 but also position Malaysia as the digital hub for ASEAN,” Amar concluded.
