Symbio Holdings Limited announced it has been granted the network service provider (NSP) licence by the Malaysian Communications & Multimedia Commission (MCMC), the regulatory authority in Malaysia, further expanding its in-region offering. The issue of the NSP license to Symbio, as the trusted voice partner in Asia-Pacific, presents opportunities for global service providers and communications innovators seeking scalable, high-availability Tier-1 voice coverage to enter the Malaysian market. Symbio's Tier-1 voice offering in Malaysia will supplement its existing Tier-1 domestic network in Singapore, both available within its South-East Asia (SEA) Regional Hub, allowing global telecom and technology service providers to cater to customers across multiple countries through a single Symbio interconnect.

The NSP licence comes a year after Symbio launched its initial offering in Malaysia, paving the way for international customers to establish connections within the country through a host of voice services, including the allocation of international numbers.
