The power of the web today is here to stay and newer and faster broadband access technologies are being used to make the web even easier to use.
Even though copper can deliver high bandwidths, its reach only extends to a few hundred yards after which the signal begins to degrade and bandwidth narrows.
Fiber to the home (FTTH), however, is the ultimate technology to deliver very high bandwidth over longer distances, transporting communication signals over optical fiber using light instead of electricity (unlike traditional broadband enablers such as copper telephone wires and coxial cable).
Senior Director of MCMC, Zamani Zakariah said,
in the way people play, this technology will fulfill the demand which is so complicated now and its a solution for communication
He said that at the 3rd Annual FTTH Council Asia Pacific Conference and Exhibition at Shangri La Hotel this Morning.

No doubt that fibre is the best when it comes to performance and delivery. However, there's the cost factor. It will only be viable in very dense areas.
I feel the most practical solution that the government and providers should concentrate on is wireless - WiFi, and especially WiMax ... if, the intention is to reach and provide for the masses, that is.
