Maxis has revealed that they are offering free data to its postpaid and prepaid customers during the Movement Control order. Instead of giving an allocated amount of free data quota, Maxis is providing free access for selected news and government websites.
The list of sites includes the Ministry of Health, the Prime Minister’s Office, the World Health Organisation and local news sites such as The Star, News Straits Times, Astro Awani, Berita Harian, Harian Metro, Sin Chew and more. There’s no mention of the free data period at the moment but it is likely to last at least until 31st March 2020.
