Keppel to sell M1 unit's telco business to Simba Telecom​

https://www.reuters.com/en/keppel-sell-m1-units-telco-business-simba-telecom-2025-08-11/

Aug 11 (Reuters) - Singapore's Keppel said on Monday that it will sell the telecom business of subsidiary M1 Ltd to local company Simba Telecom, in a deal valuing the firm at S$1.43 billion ($1.11 billion), including debt.

Keppel will receive near S$1 billion in cash for its 83.9% effective stake in M1. It will retain the fast growing information and communications technology business, which also includes data centres and subsea cables.
 
Is it possible that Simba may face a similar fate to Vodafone or Virgin Mobile, which previously entered the Singapore market but ultimately left in the 2000s?
 
Two crappy telcos deserving each other. :laugh:

M1 was once upon a time the gold standard, then the decline happened.

If you really want to save money on your phone plans, give your business to CMLink. 中国移动 (China Mobile) sounds like 中国姨洞 (China Auntie Hole).

If you want one company bao gar liao for phone, home broadband etc, Starhub is the one for you.

temasick is slowly realising that the days of using "competition" to charge a high price with poor services to sinkies is coming to an end. they are just trying to cash-in before the bubble burst. They will let go Starhub once they find a sucker
 
I am using Simba, their previous name is tpc telecom?
Signal is not good, especially underground mrt. Hope they can improve.
