U MOBILE AND CELCOM EXTENDED DOMESTIC ROAMING AGREEMENT

U MOBILE AND CELCOM EXTENDED DOMESTIC ROAMING AGREEMENT

Kuala Lumpur, 3 September 2010 – U Mobile Sdn Bhd and Celcom Axiata Berhad [formerly known as Celcom (Malaysia) Berhad] have extended their partnership on domestic roaming arrangement for another 3-year duration. This arrangement made effective 1 July 2010, and is an enhancement of the existing agreement.



The Domestic Roaming agreement was signed by the Chief Executive Officer of U Mobile, Dr. Kaizad Heerjee, on behalf of U Mobile while the Chief Executive Officer of Celcom, Dato’ Sri Shazalli Ramly, signed on behalf of Celcom.


The existing domestic roaming agreement between the two parties was first signed in year 2007 and was a landmark agreement, being the first such agreement of its kind in the country that allowed customers to enjoy complete nationwide mobile coverage at no additional cost to the users.


Through this renewed domestic roaming arrangement with Celcom, U Mobile customers will continue to enjoy nationwide coverage and improved user experience, with seamless hand-over of voice calls from U Mobile’s 3G network to Celcom’s 2G network. Later in the year, U Mobile subscribers roaming on Celcom’s 2G network will also be able to access data services such as Mobile Internet, MMS and Content Downloads.


Dr. Kaizad Heerjee, the CEO of U Mobile said, “The seamless integration between U Mobile’s 3G network and Celcom’s 2G network will deliver an unparallel level of mobile communications to the end users who constantly need to stay connected.”


“This move demonstrates the industry’s ability to arrive at a commercial agreement that helps meet the objective of the Ministry of Information Communication and Culture to benefit the consumers by providing nationwide coverage,” he added.


“We are pleased to continue the working relationship with U Mobile on the domestic roaming front. Through this collaboration, Celcom can carry on empowering U Mobile’s customers, offering them the convenience of the widest and the best coverage in Malaysia,” said Dato’ Sri Shazalli.


With the new commercial arrangement with Celcom, U Mobile will maximize the benefits for its customers by offering competitive products and value added services riding on its 3G network which provides fast, smooth and stable connection.

Celcom and DiGi Sign MoU for Advanced Network Collaboration



KUALA LUMPUR, 10 JUNE 2010: Celcom Axiata Berhad [formerly known as Celcom (Malaysia) Berhad] ("Celcom") and DiGi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd ("DiGi") today announced plans to explore long-term network and infrastructure collaboration in Malaysia.


The Memorandum of Understanding ("MoU") signed between Celcom, DiGi, and their respective major shareholders Axiata Group Berhad ("Axiata") and Telenor Asia Pte Ltd ("Telenor") will focus on three collaborative areas, namely operations and maintenance, transmission and site sharing, and radio access network.


The proposed active sharing model is geared towards generating significant operational and cost efficiencies for both operators by removing duplication of base station sites, addressing escalating rental fees, reducing utility bills and transmission costs, optimising deployment of base stations per area, and redeploying equipment between redundant and new sites.


The MoU is among the first such collaboration in the world with a wide and comprehensive scope. This is the first time two major network operators in Malaysia are considering extensive collaboration of network resources. A definitive agreement is expected to be reached before the end of 2010 once both parties have agreed on the long-term economic and operational viability of this collaboration.


This agreement also closely reflects an earlier accord for the sharing of network resources in Bangladesh between Axiata and Telenor Asia, through their respective operating companies Axiata (Bangladesh) Limited and Grameenphone Ltd. It signals the commitment of Axiata Group and Telenor Group to explore initiatives regarding network resources collaboration in Asia that could bring long-term significance in cost savings and environmental benefits.


The MoU was signed in the presence of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission Chairman Tan Sri Khalid Ramli. Signing on behalf of their respective companies were Dato' Sri Shazalli Ramly, CEO of Celcom; Henrik Clausen, CEO of DiGi; Dato' Sri Jamaludin Ibrahim, Managing Director/President and Group CEO of Axiata; and Sigve Brekke, Executive Vice President of Telenor Group and Head of Telenor Region Asia.


On the MoU, Mr. Clausen explained, "Maturing mobile markets like Malaysia can benefit from extensive network sharing as a key strategy to drive cost and operational efficiency. These efficiencies will in turn allow us to explore new and innovative ways to provide wider coverage at better costs for our customers, especially in facilitating the strong demand for data services nationwide. This is the main driver behind this collaboration, and we see clear advantages in moving forward together on a long-term, sustainable business model."


"With higher internet penetration, networks are becoming more data-centric than voice-centric, driving an increased capacity requirement in all points of the network infrastructure. In the long run, it is more practical to explore other alternatives to address this shift in trend. This collaboration is a new milestone not only for Celcom and DiGi, it is also a brand new chapter for the local industry and the country, positioning Malaysia as a pioneer in network infrastructure sharing. Ultimately, we look forward to improved quality of service and increased shareholder value, benefiting both the consumers and service providers" said Dato' Sri Shazalli.

KUALA LUMPUR, 10 DECEMBER 2010: Celcom Axiata Berhad (Celcom) and DiGi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd (DiGi) today announced extension of the Memorandum of Understanding to explore long-term network and infrastructure collaboration by 3 months.


The MoU was signed on 10 June 2010 between Celcom, DiGi, and their respective major shareholders Axiata Group Berhad and Telenor Asia Pte Ltd to study feasibility of collaboration in the areas of operations and maintenance, transmission and site sharing, and radio access network. The proposed active sharing model is geared towards generating significant operational and cost efficiencies for both operators by removing duplication of base station sites, addressing escalating rental fees, reducing utility bills and transmission costs, optimising deployment of base stations per area, and redeploying equipment between redundant and new sites.


Celcom and DiGi are now at an advanced stage of discussion and require an extension to finalize the feasibility study and agree on framework of the potential partnership. Both are aiming towards a binding agreement by 31 January 2011.

DiGi launches Malaysia's first telco prepaid card



First simple and secure payment card with telco-related rewards exclusively for DiGi customers


Shah Alam, 16 August 2011: DiGi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd ("DiGi") today announced the launch of Malaysia's first telco-branded prepaid payment card, the DiGi Simple MasterCard. In collaboration with Alliance Bank Malaysia Berhad and MasterCard International, the new offering is the first convenient and secure cashless payment card in the market to offer telco benefits.


The prepaid card enables cardholders the simplicity to make purchases, much like a credit card, with an easy subscription process that does not require a banking account; incur fees related to credit cards, or the necessary income eligibility criteria and credit evaluation.


DiGi's Head of Financial Services, Galvin Yeo said that the DiGi Simple Prepaid MasterCard offers customers a simpler yet rewarding way to pay for goods and services, minus the complexity of owning a credit or debit card. "We have combined the purchasing philosophy of a credit card and the payment philosophy of prepaid mobile services to make it easier for our customers. DiGi users who previously were not entitled to a credit or debit card now have the option of making cashless transactions, with the added convenience of performing cash withdrawals with our card."


Exclusively for DiGi Prepaid, Postpaid and Enterprise customers above 18-years-old with valid personal identification and local mailing address, the card can be used by topping up any amount not more than RM10,000 via cash deposit machines, ATMs or online funds transfer. Subsequently, cardholders can begin making purchases at any international and local MasterCard merchants or withdrawals at selected ATMs.


While it is simple to use, the card also provides customers limited risks involved in making physical or online transactions as usage is regulated by the amount deposited and stored on the card. Moreover, the card is a secure EMV chip-based card with the MasterCard SecureCode technology. The MasterCard security feature is an added layer used to authenticate cardholders' information for online payments, helping to improve safety of internet transactions.


Galvin said, "What differentiates the DiGi Simple MasterCard from normal bank offerings is that the benefits come in the form of telco rewards." He said customers using the card will enjoy exclusive offers, discounts and privileges from DiGi. These currently include:


•Up to 60 minutes of free On Net talktime when reloading with DiGi Prepaid


•Additional 100 Bonuslink points for DiGi postpaid bill payments


•Free RM30,000 Personal Accident insurance coverage for one year


•Special buy 1 get 1 free deals from Starbucks and TGV, subject to terms and conditions.


Galvin continued, "Customers can expect to enjoy different promotions in the future as we periodically update and add on new card features, a variety of choice discounts and rewards."


"At the end of the day, it is all about delivering relevant services to our customers that meets their needs and simultaneously reward them. We believe the DiGi Simple MasterCard will deliver on this promise. This is the start of more innovative products from DiGi's financial services offerings as we aim to enable more customers to benefit from the use of mobile technology in their daily lives."


To sign-up for the DiGi Simple MasterCard, existing DiGi Prepaid customers need only reload RM15 or purchase a new SIM pack, while DiGi Postpaid customers are eligible to apply simply by making their bill payments. The card is now available at DiGi Retail Centres and DiGi Centres in the Klang Valley, and will be available nationwide by September 2011.

MAXIS AND U MOBILE ENTER INTO MALAYSIA’S FIRST ACTIVE 3G RADIO ACCESS NETWORK SHARING AGREEMENT

MAXIS AND U MOBILE ENTER INTO MALAYSIA’S FIRST ACTIVE 3G RADIO ACCESS NETWORK SHARING AGREEMENT



~Multi-billion ringgit benefits to be realized for both parties


~Greater efficiency in delivering services


~Reduce environmental impact, foster sustainability


Kuala Lumpur, 21 October 2011– Maxis Broadband Sdn Bhd (Maxis) and U Mobile Sdn Bhd (U Mobile) today entered into a landmark multi-billion ringgit agreement to share Maxis’ 3G radio access networks (RAN), making the partnership the first active 3G RAN sharing arrangement to be deployed in Malaysia. The agreement will be for an initial period of 10 years.



The agreement also encompasses LTE sharing when the spectrum becomes available and the technology is rolled out which will deliver even better benefits to customers.




This collaboration marks a milestone in the telecommunications industry in Malaysia as it shares the active telecommunication systems and operating frequency spectrum and goes beyond the existing physical (passive) infrastructure sharing which has been practiced for long time between operators in the industry.




As a result of the collaboration, Maxis will receive a significant new source of revenue and will enhance utilization of its network in areas that are currently underutilized.




At the signing ceremony, Chief Executive Officer of Maxis, Sandip Das, said: “As an industry leader in the country, this collaboration is significant for Maxis as it reflects our commitment to promote non-duplication of infrastructure. Active sharing results in greater cost savings which in turn translates to increased direct revenue for both companies. More importantly it allows us to focus on providing innovative services and giving more value to customers, while having the benefit of doing all these in a more environmentally friendly manner. As a strong advocate of network-sharing, this will add to our existing carbon footprint reduction initiatives. To date, over 54% of our base stations sites are shared with other operators. This partnership will also accelerate broadband penetration in the country, paving the way towards achieving Digital Malaysia aspirations.”




This newly signed agreement is equally beneficial to U Mobile as it enables the company to accelerate the speed of its 3G network rollout by 4 to 5 times and at the same time achieve significant cost-savings through network sharing with Maxis. The shared locations will exclude urban market centers, such asKlang Valley, Penang, Johor Bahru and Ipoh, where U Mobile is committed to continue providing high speed mobile broadband services.




At the signing ceremony, Dr. Kaizad commented, “U Mobile is delighted to bring another first-of-its-kind innovation in the Malaysian market through this Active RAN Sharing partnership with Maxis. While active RAN sharing has been successfully done by some of the most innovative operators in the world, we are delighted to be the pioneer in Malaysia, and possibly the region. This will certainly set a new benchmark in the industry.”




Dr. Kaizad further added that “This mutually beneficial partnership with Maxis will accelerate the expansion of our current 3G footprint to more than 4,000 3G sites in Malaysia by early-2013. Furthermore, the extensive savings generated from this agreement will enable U Mobile to bring even more product and service innovation for our customers while at the same time assisting the government initiative of “Broadband for All”.




The RAN partnership also responds to the Government’s call for telcos to reduce duplication of network assets, enabling operators to deliver better services. In addition, this pact promotes increased competition at the service level rather than at the infrastructure level.




Mobile operators around the world are looking for cost efficiencies across the industry. In a mature market such as Malaysia, RAN sharing can considerably reduce CAPEX and OPEX, increase the speed of network rollouts, enhance coverage and more importantly to meet the rapidly increasing demands for data and voice capacity.
