Either cut loss or wait for privatization.

YES has just launched an android phone - Eclipse. However, don't expect consumers to choose Eclipse over iPhone or Samsung.

As somebody else has already explained, YES is losing money.
YES is based on Wimax technology developed by Intel. The problem is that Apple and Samsung don't support Wimax.

I understand YES is losing money, but knowing that starting up a totally new business especially telco business, a company need to fork out a lot of CAPEX. The reason why I hold until now is I believe, the ROI will be coming in after 3-5 years time.. but YES only in operation less than 2 years... shareholders not giving any chance at all?

As I have explained earlier, Apple and Samsung don't support Wimax, which is the platform used by YES. If you want to buy an iPhone or the upcoming Galaxy S III, basically you have to go to Celcom, Digi, Maxis or U Mobile. On the other hand, people who want to download video or watch IPTV will subscribe Unifi. YES, in its current form, is not going to do well even if you give it another 3 years.

YTL certainly knows this problem. Which is why it recently announced that it was 'open to 4G LTE tie-up'. (click the link below) When the newer network is operational, you can have all the world's popular phones running on it. But don't expect YES to turnaround so soon.

The page linked above also tell us that YES is launching its first smartphone, called Eclipse. Unfortunately, it is completely eclipsed by the likes of phones from Apple, Samsung, HTC etc. You can go to LYN's Android forum and see how people are ridiculing this phone.
