DIGI - Annual Report 2021

Chief Executive Officer’s Statement Q A How did Digi navigate through the year to deliver value and growth? We set out our three-year strategy roadmap at the start of 2021, anchored on our purpose to empower societies and connect customers to what matters most. The surge in demand for connectivity and digital services supported our ambition to modernise and strengthen our network and operations, as well as to grow revenues in Postpaid, Fixed, and Business segments during the year.This accelerated shift to digitalisation also put a spotlight on the society’s increased use of digital technology and tools: this fueled our commitment to continue on our Yellow Heart programme to advance safer internet awareness, advocating data privacy, partnering to build skills for a better digital future, and promoting digital inclusion by enabling easier access to our services for all Malaysians across the country.

We have confidence that Digi will deliver a robust 2022, underpinned by sharp execution of our strategic priorities.We see Postpaid, Fibre, and Business as our key growth drivers, and will continue to bring best-value product propositions and innovative digital solutions to the market. Our business modernisation journey is progressing well, with critical IT transformation projects in the pipeline to enhance digital experience for our customers, and boost organisational capabilities.We continue to work closely with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), including on Universal Service Provision (USP) initiatives, which will strengthen our ability to provide high-quality and affordable digital connectivity to communities in rural and remote areas. 12 Digi.Com Berhad At A Glance Message To Shareholders How We Create Value Strategies To Create Value
