Internet Service
History
The year 1995 is considered the beginning of the Internet age in
Malaysia. The growth in the number of Internet hosts in Malaysia began
around 1996. The country's first search engine and web portal company, Cari Internet, was also founded that year.
According to the first Malaysian Internet survey conducted from October
to November 1995 by MIMOS and Beta Interactive Services, one out of
every thousand Malaysians had access to the Internet (20,000 Internet
users out of a population of 20 million).
In 1998, this number grew to 2.6% of the population. The total number
of computer units sold, which was 467,000 in 1998 and 701,000 in 2000
indicated an increasing growth.
Speed
As of Q2 2015, Malaysia's average internet speed is 6.0 megabits per
second (Mbit/s), and shows a 17 per cent year-on-year increase in
broadband speed; Malaysia is ranked 70th place worldwide by the 2015
State of the Internet (Soti).
[citation needed] The country's internet is one of the slowest and most expensive in the world.
The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission sets a low threshold for broadband. It defines broadband as:
