KUALA LUMPUR: The Energy, Communications and Multimedia Ministry will continue encouraging more providers of "last-mile" wired and wireless broadband access to homes and businesses, according to its minister Datuk Amar Leo Moggie.
At the First Asean IPv6 Summit 2003 in Kuala Lumpur's Putra World Trade Centre on Tuesday, Moggie admitted that despite his ministry's efforts, the provision and installation of last-mile broadband access in the country was inadequate.

He was responding to an In.Tech query on the relevance of enabling more broadband services through the adoption of the IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) when adequate physical provision of such access to homes was still a big problem in Malaysia.
