Following the latest developments in the local mobile industry, the MCA amended the 2014 Decision governing the assignment and management of the 800 MHz, 1800 MHz and 2.5 GHz bands. The amended decision aligned the established assignment and management principles for the spectrum bands in question with the current market circumstances.
An authorised electronic communication service provider (‘ECS’) has recently lodged a formal request with the MCA for the assignment of spectrum in the 800 MHz and 2.5 GHz band to be used for the provision of electronic communications networks and services.
In line with the MCA Decision, the Authority is hereby publishing a Call for Expression of Interest to determine the demand for spectrum in the pertinent bands.
