Vodafone partners with Telekom Malaysia expanding in Asia

[vodamod]

Vodafone has signed a Partner Network Agreement with Telekom Malaysia Berhad, a leading Asian communications group. The Partner Network agreement covers three TM subsidiaries - Celcom (Malaysia), XL (Indonesia) and Dialog (Sri Lanka).

Under the terms of the agreement, the three TM subsidiaries will be able to provide their roaming customers with access to Vodafone's international voice and data roaming services such as Vodafone World, Virtual Home Environment, Vodafone Passport, GPRS roaming and 3G roaming. The three subsidiaries will also locally introduce a number of Vodafone's business solutions, which will include the world-leading Vodafone Mobile Connect Card proposition, BlackBerry from Vodafone, the 3G/UMTS Router and Vodafone Wireless Office.

In Malaysia, Indonesia and Sri Lanka, Vodafone's products and services will be marketed under a dual brand, bringing together the nationally recognised brands of Celcom, XL and Dialog, with the globally recognised Vodafone brand. In addition, the agreements provide scope for close co-operation on Multinational Corporate Accounts and for the three TM subsidiaries to benefit from Vodafone's terminal procurement when launching Vodafone's products and services in Asia.

These agreements bring the total number of Vodafone Partner Networks to 31, covering the Americas, Africa, Europe and Asia.
