Looks like Sk Telecom may have to buy out Puan Chan and his gang b4 they can return to profitability. Product is lousy so when can profit be expected!

Have you tried their product? They advertised "potong" but I have second thoughts about them. I am afraid after I potong my Celcom broadband, I would get speed that is even worse.

If you look at the whole of Insider Asia's portfolio, they can afford to take a hit.

Actually P1 will get LTE license too if not mistaken
but the problem is the spectrum is very limited

The CEO of Maxis stated in announcement of its 2011 results that ".....our capex allocation for FY2012 does not factor in the LTE upgrade .... because the government has not awarded the licence yet...Should the government award it, which we expect by this year ..."
Hence, LTE licence would only be awarded this year.

Black swan events. Unlikely Vincent Tan having regreted selling Mutiara Swisscom to Digi would now merge UMobile with Digi. All indications are UMobile is doing it alone. Hence, its IPO in the third quarter

Green Packet selling P1. The Edge reported "5 parties have submitted their bids for P1. 3 of the bidders are a foreign party and 2 local telcos"

I guess one of the local parties is YTL

they got a sub-optimum allocation of LTE spectrum. Unless, they collaborate with other telcos, they are unlikely to make headway.

Maybe P1, YTL, Digi will sign a collaboration agreement instead.

What matter is the price, not who.

No doubt the price would be high. But Digi needs it badly without which its LTE would suffer congestion as its subscribers grow. sad.gif sad.gif

CIMB said this implied a hefty EV/EBITDA of 24 times (based on its subscriber base now) and that the acquisition price suggested that P1’s subscriber base would grow fourfold to 1.8 million, to reach a reasonable EV/EBITDA of 5.9 times.

“We think that it will be a stretch for P1 to achieve 1.8 million subscribers as Celcom, the largest wireless broadband operator in the country, only has 1.2 million users,” it added.
