NEW MOBILE INTERNET PORTAL TO OFFER TOP SERVICES

Kuala Lumpur: Quicknet Com (M) Sdn Bhd, a mobile solutions provider yesterday introduced its mobile internet portal "mobileExec" that allows the delivery of a host of messaging solutions and services targeted at the business community.

This is the first time a local solutions provider is targeting the executive and business markets to enhance business communications, the company said in statement.

It said mobileExec has capitalized on the growing use of short message services (SMS) in providing a secure and reliable delivery of messages across multiple carrier networks to any mobile and wireless devices.

MobileExec leverages on its proven technology to provide a source of constant communication anywhere and anytime, between users and their business partners, customers and employees, at a lower cost.

"The past six months have seen a tremendous surge in the usage of SMS, and we are confident the market is ready to take on a business messaging service specially for executives and enterprises," said its chairman and chief executive officer, Ramli Amat.

Industry feedback indicated a local average usage of more than 500 million SMS per month last year.

QuickNet's infrastructure and networks are built on a 724 solution carrier grade technology that has been proven in many financial service institutions.

"Apart from expanding and enhancing services and solutions, we will soon extend our services to m-commerce thus enabling buying and selling transactions as well as bill payments," Ramli said.

MobileExec's services and solutions are divided into several market communities - executives, small office and home offices (SOHO), and small-medium industries (SMIs). Executive SMS is a prepaid service and can be accessed via its site on www.mobileExec.net .
