KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 20 — Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB) and Malaysia Rapid Transit Corporation Sdn Bhd (MRT Corp) today formalised a strategic partnership to deploy indoor 5G connectivity at the Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link Immigration, Customs, Quarantine and Security (ICQC) Complex in Johor Bahru.

DNB chief executive officer Datuk Azman Ismail said preparatory work would include discussions with counterparts in Singapore on arrangements, including roaming, to support a seamless connectivity experience for passengers travelling between the two countries.

“We need to have a conversation with our counterparts in Singapore to make sure that it’s a seamless experience for the passengers on the train as we move from Johor Bahru to Singapore and vice versa,” he told reporters after the memorandum of understanding (MoU) exchange during Transport Expo Asia (TXA) 2026 here today.
