Yes launches ''5G for ALL'' bringing 5G to All Malaysians




Kuala Lumpur, 26 May 2022

YTL Communications' Yes, the first to bring 5G to Malaysia has launched '5G for All', a revolutionary campaign that paves the way for Malaysians to have access to 5G anytime, anywhere. Revealing a slew of new announcements including the cheapest new Infinite plans, '5G for All' will pave the way for a 5G enabled future for all Malaysians. Most exciting are strategic device partnerships that put 5G enabled phones into the hands of customers absolutely free when they sign up. 

''Five months ago, we became the nation's first telco to offer 5G. Today marks another major milestone as we launch the next phase of our journey in enabling all Malaysians to have easy access to 5G plans. With prices of goods increasing under the current inflationary climate, we are instead bringing down data prices by 300% to a mere RM0.30 per GB with our newest data and free device plans whilst offering speeds that are 20x faster,'' said Dato' Yeoh Seok Hong, Managing Director of YTL Communications Sdn Bhd. 

'''5G for All' is our commitment to provide affordable 5G services and solutions for the benefit of every Malaysian. Our 5G offering will unlock high-speed experiences that will change the way we work, live, learn and play. We are inviting Malaysians to Switch to 5G with Yes and enjoy the most affordable plans, coupled with free phones on the best 5G network,'' added Dato' Yeoh.

Starting a new industry standard: Yes Infinite and Infinite+ mobile plans

Introducing the latest from Yes '5G for All': Infinite and Infinite+ mobile plans. These plans go beyond the unlimited plans currently available in the market by offering customers a truly 'Infinite' experience without any throttling of speed - what Yes calls 'Infinite' high-speed data, for both 4G and 5G. At an average price of RM0.30 per GB, these plans are 300% cheaper than the 4G market standard, offering the best plans at the lowest prices. A first in the industry, these plans set a new standard. 

''The Infinite series of plans have been developed with customers in mind. With 'Infinite' high speed data at all times regardless of 4G or 5G, customers can enjoy 20x faster speeds at 300% cheaper prices. There is no longer any need to worry about having to top up or buy add-ons. The price for each plan is effectively a price cap, the more you consume the cheaper it gets! We are committed to offer a value-for-money 5G experience to serve Yes customers better every day,'' said Dato' Yeoh.
