Kota Kinabalu: The incident involving two teenagers who were injured after an 18-metre high suspension bridge they were using as an “Internet station” collapsed on Monday shows how Sabah is lagging behind in telecommunications infrastructure, said Ghazalie Ansing (pic).The Chairman of Common Tower Technologies Sdn Bhd (CTTSB), a subsidiary of Warisan Harta, said while other states are ready to make the transition from 4G, statistics show that 52 per cent of students in Sabah lack proper Internet access.
“This renders taking of online classes during the Movement Control Order to be a problem or a major challenge for them, especially those in the rural areas,” he said.
