South East Asia's biggest telecommunications company.
The company's network of base stations in Singapore will exceed 2,800 by end of March 2009.
SingTel said the upgrades would allow even faster speeds within the next 18 months to cater for the volume of customers accessing data and the internet on mobile phones.
