StarHub and M1 submit joint bid for 5G license

This follows an earlier announcement last January 23.

M1 and StarHub have submitted a joint bid for a 5G license, an announcement revealed.

This follows their announcement last January 23, where they disclosed that they have agreed to submit a joint bid for a 5G license.

The two companies did not disclose any details yet as they are unable due to the ongoing evaluation process.

“We are unable to disclose further information till the evaluation process concludes,” the press release stated.

Analysts have noted as early as 2019 that the two firms may collaborate for a 5G license bid. StarHub had been planning to sign a network-sharing deal with M1 since 2017, but encountered delays due to conditions in the mobile market and change in M1’s ownership structure.
