Actually, all the other telco's can provide DSL service as well (Time, 
Digi, Maxis).
However they are not bothered to do it for mass market, rather 
focussing on corporate business only.

So Telekom Malaysia is getting the business because the others are not 
bothered for your $$, they prefer the $$$$$ which they can charge the 
corporate sector.

Just go look at Maxis & Time's broadband offering and you know what i 
mean. (Digi decided not to pursue the broadband business). The govt 
ain't stopping them, and TMNet is NOT the only company that can provide 
DSL service.

The only way TMNet is going to get any competition is for the others to 
buck up and take the home business seriously.
