KUALA LUMPUR: UEM Sunrise Bhd has teamed up with edotco Malaysia Sdn Bhd to provide end-to-end solutions of towers, energy, transmission and operations and maintenance for a multi-tenant mobile network infrastructure development in Nusajaya, Iskandar Malaysia in Johor.
UEM Sunrise said yesterday its fully-owned UEM Land Bhd had signed a collaboration agreement with edotco, an integrated telecommunications infrastructure services company.
The collaboration includes the joint identification by the two companies of potential sites in Nusajaya for communication towers and structures for mobile network operators (MNOs), wireless service providers, radio and television broadcast companies.
The construction of such communication towers and structures will be undertaken by edotco at its own cost.
UEM Sunrise said the partnership was expected to reduce MNO towers in Nusajaya by at least 40 per cent.
“It will provide a lower entry cost for MNOs wishing to locate to Nusajaya. It will also boost the infra-readiness for 4G connectivity to cater for optimum coverage and data traffic growth in Nusajaya,” said UEM Sunrise chief financial officer Azhar Othman in a statement.
The partnership would further enhance the sustainability of Nusajaya, encouraging more businesses and multinational corporations to set up headquarters in Flagship Zone B of Iskandar Malaysia.
