TIME dotCom has entered into a partnership with Facebook to invest in Internet infrastructure, opening up Malaysia to more connections and international hubs; as well as strengthening connectivity in Southeast Asia.

The network infrastructure project stemming from this partnership is expected to be completed by end-Q2 2020 and will be used exclusively to support Facebook and its family of applications. Malaysia’s strategic location in the heart of Southeast Asia and position as an East-West gateway makes it an attractive destination for foreign investments in Internet infrastructure, enhancing the growth of Malaysia’s digital economy.

TIME said it is honoured to be Facebook’s chosen partner in this project. 

Nico Roehrich, Network Investment Manager, APAC
Facebook’s mission is to give people the power to build communities and bring the world closer together. This partnership will allow us to build a faster and more efficient network to better support our family of apps and services.
