Kwasa Damansara in Sungai Buloh aims to create a sustainable community township that’s smart and connected with a robust network infrastructure combined with smart security. To achieve this ambition, its developer, Kwasa Land Sdn Bhd has appointed Celcom Axiata Berhad as their preferred ICT partner in the development plan of the new township.

With the agreement with Kwasa Land, Celcom will be responsible for building the ICT infrastructure and converged connectivity facilities within the township. On top of that, Celcom will also provide solutions to enable Kwasa Land to plan and develop the smart city envisioned for Kwasa Damansara.

In addition, the venture will allow Celcom to strengthen its network by implementing new network sites within the township. According to the telco, this will provide the vital groundwork for them towards 5G deployment which is coming soon.

Kwasa Land will be introducing a Kwasa Damansara smart portal which will provide the township and its community an integrated system that will enable them to access smart solutions and applications that fit the varying needs of the township.

According to Celcom CEO Idham Nawawi, the collaboration marks another milestone for Celcom in the implementation of large-scale ICT infrastructure and a step forward in rolling out its 5G network.
