Bad Internet during Umno AGM? Meet the WTCKL director, Akmal

The bad internet coverage in World Trade Center Kuala Lumpur during the Umno annual general meeting is due to technical issues in WTCKL, not the fault of the Communication Ministry, said minister Fahmi Fadzil.

“In a technical case like this, there is no need to change the minister of communications, but I suggest meeting with Datuk Seri Irmohizam to examine the in-building solution problem,” he said, referring to WTCKL director Datuk Seri Irmohizam Ibrahim, who’s also an Umno member.

Fahmi was responding to calls by Umno Youth chief Datuk Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh who had proposed to party president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Jamidi to replace the communication minister with an Umno man as there were complaints about internet coverage during the party AGM a few days ago.

Fahmi also assured the public that the 5G coverage issue have been resolved.

“As of July 7, I understand that almost 84 per cent of mobile phone service users in Malaysia use 5G. This is a good achievement,” he said.
