Telecoms Giant Signs Agreement With Malta To Test 5G

The Maltese Government and telecommunications giant Huawei have signed a Memorandum of Understanding. Through this agreement aimed at researching and developing technologies in the company, Huawei will be able to start testing 5G technology across the island while in its turn the company will help Malta develop its digital strategy.

Through Huawei, Malta will be able to develop the possibility of nationwide fibre-to-home connectivity while expanding fib-rewire connectivity to other countries apart from Sicily. MGA Chairman Joseph Cuschieri, who is in charge of following the project, stated that this initiative will place Malta at the forefront since 5G is not as yet commercially available.
