Lion dancing goes back at least

2,000 years to a time of active

trade between West Asia and

China. As a mark of goodwill,

Persian ambassadors would make

gifts of exotic animals to the

Chinese Emperor. Among these

were lions. The regal beasts soon

acquired the reputation of being

able to ward off evil, and the lion

dance captures this belief. Lion

dancing came to Malaysia with

Chinese immigrants hundreds of

years ago.

In January 2005, DiGi unveiled a new phase of its

Corporate Social Responsibility programme, called

DiGi’s Amazing Malaysians. The programme aims to

increase awareness of, and preserve, the nation’s

natural, cultural, art, built and social heritage.

Q1

DiGi.Com Berhad (DiGi) starts the year

with the launch of an innovative product

targeted at business and corporate

customers. discover™ business solutions,

introduced on January 2, comprises two

simple and convenient plans. Under

discover prime™, customers enjoy a flat

rate of RM0.20 per minute for calls to

mobile and fixed line numbers within

Malaysia, with a monthly RM50 fee.

discover classic™ offers a flat rate of

RM0.25 for calls and RM30 monthly fee.

In addition, both plans offer a 30%

discount on IDD and 016 calls. Itemised

billing is provided alongside SMS,

Voicemail, IDD, GPRS and WAP data.

Q2

DiGi makes national headlines on May

14 as the first operator to offer EDGE,

a high-speed mobile network, in the

Klang Valley. With browsing speeds of

up to 384 kbps, charged at GPRS rates,

customers can access large data files

from the Internet and other sources on

their mobiles.

On April 23, DiGi launches the

Online Prepaid Statement, which gives

prepaid customers the flexibility of

viewing their call details online. Another

innovation for prepaid customers is rolled

out on June 29, with RM10 reload

coupons with five-day validity.

In May, DiGi embarks on a nationwide

No One Covers You Like DiGi campaign to

inform customers of improved coverage

in most of populated Malaysia.

Q3

Morten Lundal is appointed DiGi’s new

Chief Executive Officer on July 26,

replacing Tore Johnsen who is to head

Telenor’s mobile operation in Pakistan.

Riding on EDGE, DiGi introduces on

August 19 a first in Malaysia —MobileTV™

offers 24-hour live TV over EDGE-

enabled handsets. On the same day,

DiGi launches the Automatic Balance

Notification, allowing customers to

check their credit balance, account

status and tariff plan; perform reloads;

manage their Friends and Family™

numbers; and check the list of roaming

countries via a USSD menu browser.

Q4

This is a quarter of hellos and goodbyes.

On October 26, DiGi bids adieu to Erik

Aas, former Head of Mobile, who leaves

the company to take up his new position

as CEO of Grameenphone, Bangladesh;

while on November 15, we welcome

Johan Dennelind into our fold as Chief

Financial Officer. A restructuring of

the company takes place on October

28, in which the business divisions are

integrated into five main areas:

Technology, Marketing, Finance, Human

Resources and Corporate Affairs.

Meanwhile, on October 29, two

revolutionary prepaid products are

launched: Flexi e-Load™ and Talktime

Transfer™. Flexi e-Load™ gives customers

the flexibility, simplicity and convenience

to reload their prepaid accounts

electronically by any amount equivalent

to RM5 and above.

Talktime Transfer™ enables

customers to transfer talktime from one

to another.
