KUCHING: The installation of antennas on water towers can be an alternative solution to resolving the problem of internet network access in Sarawak.
Communications and digital minister Fahmi Fadzil said the method could complement more than 600 telecommunication towers built by the Sarawak Digital Economy Corporation (SDEC) statewide.
Fahmi said if this option was successfully implemented in Sarawak, it would also be used in other states that have the same telecommunication problem.
“We will assess from a technical point of view whether telecommunication equipment can be installed (on water towers) or at other high locations,” he said after an inspection of the telecommunication tower at Pantai Trombol here today.
Fahmi also said that 125 towers built by the Sarawak Multimedia Authority would be operational ahead of the Gawai celebration next month to bridge the telecommunication gap in the state. - FMT
