Dear valued customers,
In order to provide you with better and faster service, we will be upgrading our network across Malaysia in preparation for next-generation LTE (Long Term Evolution) technology rollouts.
For only a few hours on one day per area, customers may experience service interruptions including making and receiving calls, connecting to the Internet and reloading or transferring airtime. However, expected interruptions will be kept as short as possible for you.
Please refer below for the full schedule and affected areas for modernisation works. Upon completion of the upgrade, you can look forward to a faster, better network as we grow.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for being in Celcom Territory.

Celcom LTE
It would be very interesting to know Celcom uses which single RAN provider, could be Nokia, could be Huawei, could be a Motorola and could be anything.
Celcom LTE implementation will start and end on 10 February 2013 according to the schedules posted by Celcom.
No Celcom LTE for Kuching!
