CASH to Rename as "Net2Gather" China
To bring the net and people "2Gather" in China
HONG KONG, May 4, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ --The CASH Group (HKEx: 1049), a focused developer of Mobile Internet services in China, through its Moli Group Limited, today announced that its Board of Directors proposes to change the Company name to "Net2Gather (China) Holdings Limited". This signifies its vision of bringing the three networks, namely Mobile, Internet and Television, and related cross value chain services and the people of China "2Gather".
The new name also reflects the CASH Group's strategic direction to allocate further resources to expand its Shanghai-based online games business with 200 research and development (R&D) professionals, to Mobile Internet services in China. In this connection, the CASH Group has already acquired a profitable mobile and SNS platform (Meyouto) with some 20 million subscribers to formalize its own 40 million online network fraternity.
Mr. Bankee Pak-hoo Kwan, Chairman and CEO of the CASH Group, said, "We have accumulated the wealth of on-the-ground experience, built an award-winning team and our relationship network, and gained an understanding of Chinese customers preferences. With our imminent tie-up with Oberon Media and our profitable mobile platform with SNS (Meyouto) community, we are ready to make a real push to capture the lucrative Mobile Internet market..." Mr. Kwan continued, "As our "2Gather" name signifies, we aim to build a cross value chain of Mobile Internet services to see a coming together of the net and people in China in an online fraternity."
The Moli Group was recently ranked fourth out of twenty-two best online game companies in an assessment by Shanghai Municipal Culture, Radio Broadcasting, Film and Television Administration, based on measures related to management and control in operation qualities. This provides impetus for Moli Group to compete in the estimated annual US$5 billion online games market in China. Also, Moli Group aims to capture other cross value chain Mobile Internet services to serve China's over 800 million mobile subscribers, which is three times the size of the United States.
In addition, Moli Group is now finalising the tie-up with Oberon Media. This will result in Moli Group becoming a joint venture between itself and Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Oak Investment Partners invested Oberon Media. Moli Group will have the exclusive content distribution rights of over 1,200 casual games in China. Moli Group will localise the content for distribution to meet market needs. It is also important for upstream content in bringing "2Gather" Moli Group's Mobile Internet services.
