JASIF owns fibre-optical cables spanning 1.6 million core kilometres, currently leased by TTTBB for its broadband internet service under the brand 3BB. True's revenue from fixed broadband business amounted to 7.32 billion baht in the first quarter of 2022. Third, the fixed internet broadband market has only 51% household penetration, meaning it is unsaturated, compared with 120% penetration in the mobile market. A telecom veteran says both the AIS-TTTBB acquisition and the True-DTAC merger should sail through checks by the NBTC. The True-DTAC merger seems to hinge on reducing expenses and operation costs, he said.
