[StarHub](https://www.starhub.com/?ref=southeastasiaconnect.com) plans to acquire MyRepublic's mobile business in Singapore, a pending ownership change that would place the mobile brand within StarHub's multi-brand portfolio. The companies announced the transaction on 8 October, but completion remains subject to conditions precedent. Singapore business connectivity buyers and mobile competitors therefore have a proposed market-structure change to watch, not a completed acquisition.

StarHub says it plans to keep the MyRepublic Mobile brand distinct and customers on their existing plans. That is the company's stated approach if the acquisition closes; the mobile users' earlier migration onto StarHub's network is a separate operating change.

## What changes if the deal completes

The deal follows StarHub's 2021 investment in MyRepublic Broadband. StarHub says the mobile purchase would culminate in full ownership of MyRepublic across broadband and mobile, while keeping the mobile brand distinct. If the conditions are met, the change is ownership of two related businesses under one group, not the launch of a new mobile network.

The release does not disclose the purchase price or MyRepublic Mobile's subscriber count, limiting an assessment of financial scale. For Singapore connectivity buyers, the concrete change to track is who owns the mobile business, while StarHub says existing customer plans will continue.

## Existing network migration is separate

StarHub says MyRepublic Mobile customers were already being progressively migrated onto its network before the acquisition announcement. That earlier operational arrangement provides context for service continuity, but it is not evidence that the proposed purchase has closed. The company describes access to its nationwide 5G+ network as part of the customer proposition.

The 2021 broadband investment, pre-existing mobile-network migration and proposed purchase form a staged consolidation rather than a new network launch. StarHub says the combined scale would support future network investment and service innovation. The transaction's completion remains the next ownership milestone in Singapore.
