unifi committed to raise the bar with positive changes via #khabarbaik movement
unifi, the premier Convergence brand under Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) today shared its plan for 2019 through its #khabarbaik movement, which is set to bring more good news Malaysians nationwide. The #khabarbaik movement was unveiled by Moharmustaqeem Mohammed, Acting Executive Vice President, unifi.
Apa khabar? unifi says #khabarbaik
The #khabarbaik movement represents unifi’s commitment to continue raising the bar on its products and services as unifi constantly innovates and understands its customers’ needs. unifi hopes that the movement will be a shift in attitude and approach that seeks to spread positivity, and this has been implemented internally since the beginning of 2019. #khabarbaik is the attitude that will be embraced by each and every employee of unifi that will translate to how the business is run and the positive changes it will bring to consumers and Malaysia at large.
According to Mohar: “As we kick start the year 2019, this has been a very exciting juncture for unifi. Even as we continue to evolve as an organisation, our commitment has and will always be to enable digital adoption and a converged lifestyle for all – across all backgrounds and income groups. We have contributed a great lot to the country’s digital development and we think that is worth celebrating. In the meantime, we will continue to work hard to address customer pain points. We will keep listening and then, come back to market with more #khabarbaik. That is why the #khabarbaik movement is our way forward to serve Malaysia through our product offerings and design a better customer experience.”
First #khabarbaik of 2019
Living up to its promise of delivering good news to Malaysia, unifi also unveiled the brand new unifi Mobile postpaid lineup, designed with every Malaysian in mind.
“unifi aspires for every Malaysian household to be seamlessly connected to their favourite content and services. However, we understand that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach as each member of the family will have different data consumption. From the teenager who consumes many videos on the move, parents with young ones that love to explore educational content online, to the grandparent who uses data primarily to keep in touch with their family members – unifi Mobile’s newest plans aim to enable every individual’s unique digital lifestyle, just at the right price points,” Mohar shared.
With the latest unifi Mobile offering, ‘Adik’, who might not need as much data, can opt for a smaller mobile data plan of 2GB (1GB LTE + 1GB 3G) at only RM19. The unifi Mobile 19 plan also comes with five (5) minutes talk time and 25 SMS. Meanwhile, ‘Atuk’ or ‘Nenek’ could opt for unifi Mobile 29 and ‘Kakak’ can choose unifi Mobile 39 which offers 3GB (2GB LTE + 1GB 3G) and 5GB (4GB LTE + 1GB 3G) respectively – along with 50 minutes talk time and 25 SMS. As for those who are happy with 10GB data, they can subscribe to the unifi Mobile 59 plan that comes with 9GB LTE + 1GB 3G, 100 minutes talk time, and 25 SMS. These tailored plans will ensure that everyone has just the right plan they need – not too much, not too little.
These new offerings will join unifi’s existing unifi Mobile 99 plan which offers never ending data, calls, and SMS. Now Malaysians will have more options to choose from when looking for a postpaid plan. The full range of unifi Mobile offerings are available for purchase on unifi’s website at unifi.com.my
By introducing simpler and more affordable plans, open for subscription to all Malaysians, unifi is able to make internet connectivity more accessible to all citizens, ensuring that Malaysians from all walks of life are able to benefit from the digital lifestyle.
“This is definitely aligned to what we hope to spread with #khabarbaik. It is our commitment to ensure that access to internet connectivity is affordable and seamless for all. We hope that by introducing value add plans like the unifi Mobile 19, we can enable more Malaysians to adopt digital technology into their lifestyle,” said Mohar.
Updates on unifi turbo and Streamyx upgrades
In another exciting update, aggressive speed upgrading exercise to unifi packages are currently ongoing for existing Streamyx customers residing in unifi coverage areas. Meanwhile, for Streamyx customers in non-unifi coverage areas, TM is committed to bring high speed broadband to them through alternative technologies by TM or other infrastructure providers. Where technology permits, TM is doubling the Streamyx speed at the same price of their current broadband plan.
“In total, about 1 million are eligible for the turbo upgrading exercise. Existing unifi customers will see up to a tenfold speed boost with the turbo upgrades; from 10Mbps to 100Mbps, from 30Mbps to 300Mbps, from 50Mbps to 500Mbps, and from 100Mbps to 800Mbps – all at the same rates that they are currently paying. To date, we have successfully upgraded over 910,000 unifi customers and more than 66% of over 340,000 Streamyx customers residing in unifi coverage areas to unifi; at the same price of their current plan. The rest of the 130,000 Streamyx customers who have yet to grab this opportunity for the free upgrade are encouraged to do so. We aim to complete this speed upgrading exercise by March 2019. In the meantime, we do acknowledge that some upgraded customers are facing speed hiccups which we are resolving soonest possible,” Mohar elaborated.
“In the coming year, we promise to deliver more #khabarbaik in the form of greater connectivity, seamless customer experience, and an all-round digital lifestyle to all parts of Malaysia,” he concluded.

TM migrating unifi customers to private IP for more seamless connectivity and better security
With the rapid growth of Internet usage, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) worldwide are facing the exhaustion of IPv4 addresses. As such, TM has started migrating its unifi customers to private IP to enable more seamless connectivity and better security. The migration involves its unifi customers subscribing to unifi 30Mbps, 50Mbps and 100Mbps plans and are currently on dynamic public IPv4 Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. These customers are being migrated to private IPs, which will enable them to experience seamless connectivity in a more secured environment. The process will be executed remotely from our end, so the customers involved with this migration need not perform any action at their end. Customers using CCTV IP-Based and known hosting will not be impacted as they will be excluded from the migration exercise. This activity is ongoing, with minimal downtime (if any) of merely between 2 – 5 minutes. Upon completion of the migration, customers’ internet performance will not be affected. All impacted customers are notified in advance. We trust this exercise will provide our unifi customers with enhanced security when browsing the Internet or utilising any online tools and applications. We at TM are continuously upgrading and improving our product offerings to cater to the evolving needs and usage of our customers across all segments.
