The Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) has issued clarifications to queries relating to the 700 MHz, 900 MHz, 2.3 GHz, and 2.5 GHz spectrum rights auction. IDA has also issued the final Information Memorandum and Auction Rules. Interested bidders can submit the Expression of Interest Document to IDA by 1 September. The auction will determine Singapore’s fourth mobile network operator.
Interested companies should submit their application forms, including supporting documentation to prove they have sufficient funds. The regulator will take 20 days to assess their Expression of Interest applications and provide the necessary training to participants on how to use the IDA’s computerised auction system. IDA plans to start the sale of frequencies in early October, and award the fourth MNO license in Singapore in April 2017.
