Huawei is reportedly planning to build the second 5G network in Malaysia amid U.S. sanctions. The Chinese tech giant could soon join hands with a local firm – Maxis Communications to expand its advanced network solutions in the country.

Maxis Communications is one of the oldest and largest telecom operators in Malaysia. It provides communication products, applications, and value-added services to general customers, large enterprises, and small/medium business groups.

According to the report, Malaysia requires a stable, faster, and easy-to-use network connection for its enterprises. Since Huawei has well-expanded its network tech in Southeast Asia, Malaysia is seeing the OEM as a major solution for its 5G network.

Inputs reveal that Huawei could team up with Maxis Communications to build the second 5G network in Malaysia despite U.S. concerns about security.

One of the foreign representatives mentioned that if Maxis gets the chance to build Malaysia’s second 5G network, then it will choose Huawei over any other partner.

The anonymous person also states that Huawei’s indulgence in the second network may pull away customers from the existing network techs and reduce the revenue required for the current network solutions’ growth and development.

“If it goes to Maxis, as some people say, it is likely that Huawei will benefit from it as their infrastructure partner. In the end, it could look like Malaysia is helping Chinese interests” – said the foreign representative.

Malaysia aims to uplift its tech section with top-tier chip investments and digital growth. The country is seeing a second 5G network as the need for ultra-high-speed mobile broadband. Malaysia Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said:

“While we get the best from the West, we also should benefit the best from the East.”

However, some U.S. experts believe that a direct connection between Malaysia with Huawei could affect the country’s relations with Western chip investors who see Chinese firms as a huge risk to security.

A cooperation agreement between Huawei and Maxis Communications still requires confirmation. The inputs reveal that a big announcement on this matter is expected very soon.
