True Corporation, the country's second largest mobile operator by subscriber base, has insisted its planned merger with industry peer Total Access Communication (DTAC) cannot be delayed from its timeline that targets completion by mid-June, despite a reshuffle of the telecom regulator's board.
An executive at True who requested anonymity said the merger process was following standard procedures and complying with the law, as the two companies submitted a joint report of the amalgamation plan to the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) on Jan 25.
