SANDAKAN: The government is currently installing fibre optic Point of Presence (PoP) network hubs in 700 rural schools in Sabah to ensure the stability of broadband Internet services for people in the state.

Communications and Multimedia Minister Tan Sri Annuar Musa said phase one of the PoP project would ensure more areas that previously did not have stable connections, received high-quality Internet access.

"The proof is when we see and read news of people who cannot get the 'line' and have to climb trees or hills to get Internet access, and the solution to this problem is if the school or area can be supplied with fibre optics, then a more stable broadband service can be provided," he said. Annuar said in Sabah, the government would have to spend a lot to develop the PoP project in tandem with the National Digital Network programme so that within two years, the state would receive high quality 4G Internet and be prepared for 5G.
