How Will The Digi-Celcom Merger Affect Us?

Digi and Celcom has been given the greenlight by MCMC to proceed with their proposed merger, which has come with pushback from several parties. We take a hard look at how this move will impact both the industry and consumers. And then, we discuss how issues like competitiveness, pricing and monopolies can be managed fairly when we talk about large mergers.
