The proposed Merger between Relekom Malaysia Berhad, TM and Axiata Group Bhd “makes sense”, given the size of both networks and the need for scale.

However, Chief Executive Officer of Celcom Axiata Bhd, Michael Kuehner said there is "no indication" from parent Axiata group if the Merger with the state-owned fixed-line operator could materialise.

He added that it is still up to the shareholders of both parties to make the final decision.

He was met after signing a MOU on behalf of celcom Axiata with Chief Executive Of Malaysia Airlines Bhd, Captain Izham Ismail to collaborate on a strategic partnership to enrich customers experience.

Celcom Axiata Is Owned By Axiata Group.

The news of a possible Merger between the two emerged some nine months ago.
