Intel boosts WiMAX in South-East-Asia
PETALING JAYA: Intel Corp has launched an Asian Broadband Campaign aimed at accelerating wireless broadband deployment in South-east Asian countries.
The company said it is providing broadband wireless expertise, silicon and technical services for governments, telecommunications regulators, education, health and agriculture public sector agencies, and carriers - including Telekom Malaysia - to help them prepare for and conduct WiMAX trials.
The company is bringing its best expertise from preparations and trials of WiMAX deployment conducted in North America and Europe, to implement trials in Malaysia, Thailand and The Philippines by the end of 2005. Trials in Indonesia and Vietnam are expected to take place in 2006.
WiMAX trials are currently underway in Malaysia's government administrative hub, Putrajaya.
A showcase was recently held in Kepala Batas, Penang, where communities of medical practitioners, students and teachers at different remote locations test the relevance of WiMAX in the health and education sectors, including their everyday lives.
