Did you know that Singaporeans were the first in the world to be able to make mobile phone calls in an underground train system? 1G technology made mobile phone calls possible. Singapore’s 1G network was launched in 1987 – and Comcentre, Singtel’s old HQ, was one of the network’s first base stations. “It was chosen for its strategic height and its location in a centralised area,” shared Lim Siew Meng as he revisited the building’s iconic rooftop space frame. He was part of the networks team at the time. Stay tuned as we continue to share new reflections every week, celebrating our 145 years of communication. You can still get your own copy of Voices from Comcentre for S$25 at select Singtel stores until 31 December 2024. All proceeds go to the Singtel Touching Lives Fund. This fund supports six special education schools which play a pivotal role in shaping the lives of students with special needs. #Singtel #EmpowerEveryGeneration #VoicesFromComcentre #Innovation
