U Mobile is targeting 80% coverage of populated areas with 5G by the second half of 2026, with a focus on strategic sites such as airports, hospitals, convention centers, and high-traffic venues. The financing will also help advance the expansion of the company\u2019s ULTRA5G network, which was initially <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rcrwireless.com\/20250820\/5g\/u-mobile-5g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">launched<\/a> in August.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur 5G deployment across Malaysia started in the middle of 2025 and this new facility will further accelerate our rollout ambitions and reinforce our commitment to drive Malaysia\u2019s digital economy,\u201d said Wong Heang Tuck, chief executive officer of U Mobile.<\/p>\n<p>Wong also highlighted that U Mobile is ahead in terms of its network rollout targets and is fully confident that the company will achieve 80% of CoPA by the second half of next year.
