SingTel's
efforts to win corporate sales in Hong Kong paying off
HONGKONG
-- Singapore Telecommunications Ltd (SingTel) has announced
that its efforts to enhance its capabilities in Hong
Kong are paying off with very strong revenue growth
coming from data sales to corporate clients in the special
administrative region.
SingTel
has beefed up its infrastructure in Hong Kong to serve
the communication needs of companies requiring connectivity
to Asia and the rest of the world. It offers an extensive
suite of voice and data services to corporate customers
in Hong Kong, including International Leased Circuits,
Frame Relay, IP and ATM services.
Regional
markets like Hong Kong will be an increasingly important
source of revenue for SingTel's corporate business.
Presently, customers who do not have at least one circuit
originating or terminating in Singapore, account for
less than five per cent of SingTel's corporate business
revenue. It is expected that by 2005, this will increase
to as much as 30 per cent.
Riding
on its investments in submarine cables such as C2C and
i2i, and on bilateral arrangements, SingTel has established
points of presence connectivity from Hong Kong to Australia,
China, Europe, India, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, the Asian
countries and US.
