All five Malaysian telcos finally agreed to extend the daily free 1GB Internet to the full 24 hours! Here are the details!
FREE 1GB Internet For COVID-19 Lockdown!
As part of the Short-Term Economic Recovery Plan (ERP) announced by the Malaysian government, every Malaysian resident were given 1GB of free Internet every day during the COVID-19 lockdown.
However, they only provided the 1GB of free Internet from 8 AM until 6 PM daily. Presumably because it’s meant for working and learning at home.
FREE 1GB Internet Now Extended To Full 24 Hours!
Some three weeks after Malaysia started its economic recovery, all five Malaysian telcos finally agreed to let people use the daily Internet quota after 6 PM.
Maybe they finally realised that working and learning at home doesn’t actually stop at 6 PM…
Free 1GB Internet Now Usable For Full 24 Hours
Celcom, Digi, Maxis, U Mobile and Telekom Malaysia announced that, effective immediately, the free daily 1GB Internet would be usable for the full 24 hours.
Free 1GB Internet Daily, Until 31 December
They also confirmed that the daily free 1GB Internet will be provided until 31 December 2020.
This daily complimentary 1GB Internet quota is on top of your existing plan’s Internet quota.
If you normally receive 1GB of Internet for a month, this will give you 31GB of Internet for the whole month – 1GB + 30GB (in a month with 30 days).
For Work + Learning, Not For Play
The daily 1GB Internet quota can be used for everything, except social media, video streaming, gaming and music streaming.
Free Access To Essential Services
On top of the daily 1GB Internet quota, all five telcos will provide free and unlimited access to essential COVID-19 related apps and services, like :
- MySejahtera and MyTrace apps
- CPRC Hotline
- Malaysia Ministry of Health and World Health Organization websites
