SINGAPORE (Nov 16): MyRepublic has received the pre-qualification from the Infocomm Media Development Authority to participate in the New Entrant Spectrum Auction.

The home-grown fibre broadband internet service provider said in a statement on Wednesday evening that the pre-qualification meant it was “one-step away to becoming Singapore’s new telco”.

MyRepublic also added that it has received support from over 80,000 members of the public in its bid to provide a “fixed-mobile converged offering, including generous data, seamless coverage and support for the massive potential of the Internet of Things”.
