Mislatel signs USD 5.4-billion deal with China Telecom for PH third telco

Udenna Corp. has signed a USD 5.4-billion deal with China Telecom for the development of Mislatel, Philippines' official third telco.

The signing of the deal was done on April 25, 2019 during the 2nd Belt & Road Forum in Beijing, China. The goal of this agreement between Dennis Uy's Udenna Corp. and China Telecom is to formalize their "mutual undertakings and obligations" to become the country's third telco provider.

"This is a historic occasion. This is another step forward in realizing Udenna’s vision to improve the lives of Filipinos. Everything that we do is about making lives better not just for this generation, but for the next generation," said Udenna chairman Dennis Uy.

The USD 5.4 billion (roughly PHP 281.4 billion) deal is expected to boost the development of the country's third telco to challenge PH's two telco giants, PLDT (Smart) and Globe Telecom. This is in line with the order of President Rodrigo Duterte in breaking the duopoly in the telecommunications market.

Mislatel Consortium was comprised of Dennis Uy's Udenna Corp. based in Davao and its logistics arm, Chelsea Logistics Holdings, partnered with the state-owned China Telecom.

Mindanao Islamic Telephone Company, Inc. (Mislatel) was declared as the provisional 3rd telco player last November 2018. The new telco company also promised to provide up to 55 Mbps of Internet speed, covering 84.01 percent of cumulative coverage, with a capital expenditures of PHP 257 billion for five years.

Lenovo Legion beefs up lineup with new Intel 9th-gen processors

Lenovo Legion is releasing new gaming devices equipped with the latest hardware from Intel and NVIDIA that are designed to provide a truly immersive experience for gamers.

The new gaming machines will come with Intel’s 9th Generation processor, whose specifications were revealed at the 2019 Game Developers Conference. Its key features include Intel Optane Memory H10 SSD which enables quicker system performance and responsiveness.

For Lenovo Philippines Country General Manager Michael Ngan, the update of the Legion lineup bolsters the company’s goal of providing supreme performance. “Enhanced and realistic graphics are now the norm in PC gaming and those without the latest technology are simply unable to play. By providing the right tools, we at Lenovo are not only giving gamers the chance to play games, but we’re also giving non-gamers an opportunity to fully immerse themselves in a new environment,” said Ngan.

Ngan also adds that the devices will cater to gamers who want to share their experiences through online streaming. “Thanks to the booming popularity of eSports and gaming in general, video game streaming has become very lucrative and we recognize that a lot of people want to get in on it. The boost catered by Intel and NVIDIA will surely help produce popular content since they not only provide the power needed to play new and upcoming games, which people want to see, but also make the process a lot easier,” he said.

During Intel’s showcase at the GDC, the 9th Gen processors were revealed to deliver 34 percent faster video editing than the previous generation and are designed to run modern games like Hitman 2 at 10 percent more frames per second than the 8th Gen processors.

Lenovo’s upcoming Legion machines will also come with NVIDIA’s GTX 16 series graphics card which provides 1.4X more power efficiency than the previous generation. High quality streaming is assured through the card’s dedicated hardware encoders that deliver 15 percent improved efficiency and its optimization with Open Broadcaster Software (OBS).

Topping off the new features is the NVIDIA RTX 2060 graphics card. A true gaming beast, the card has up to 6X the performance of previous-generation cards and brings the power of real-time ray tracing and artificial intelligence for enhanced graphics.

Coocaa and Lazada partnership is reshaping the TV industry

• Coocaa is one of Lazada’s 12 Joint Business Partnership (JBP) brands for 2019
• Coocaa is committed to continuing its innovation lead by making available Artificial Intelligence - Internet of Things - TV (AIoTV) to all households in Philippines, at an affordable price.
• Since its official store launch on Lazada Philippines, the market has demonstrated strong interest in Coocaa’s Smart TV.

Coocaa has emerged as one of Lazada’s first Joint Business Partnership (JBP) brands for 2019, just a week after its debut on Lazada Philippines on March 15, 2019, six months on Lazada Indonesia, and four months on Lazada Vietnam and Thailand. This strategic partnership is aiming to bring high-quality televisions and after-sale services to Philippines, by cutting out the middle-man and providing consumers with the best deals.

By tapping into the marketing, branding and sales solutions provided by Lazada’s industry-leading platform, Coocaa will focus on the market’s rising demand for smart-home devices in Southeast Asia, which has led to significant changes in the smart TV industry landscape. Coocaa is committed to continuing its innovation lead by focusing on Artificial Intelligence - Internet of Things – TV (AIoTV) and making them available at an affordable price.

“Coocaa is gearing up to be the trend-setter and leader in Southeast Asia’s TV industry, especially in the Philippines. Within a very short time, we have been able to be recognised as one of Lazada’s JBP brands for 2019. Through this partnership, we will continue to fulfill the appetite for technological advancement at an affordable price,” said Rock Zhang, General Manager of Southeast Asia Brand Business & Director of Global E-Commerce Overseas Department.

“The eCommerce space in Southeast Asia is growing rapidly, and we are proud to empower vibrant brands like Coocaa, who are embracing this opportunity to win new consumers in the region. Lazada is extremely committed to developing solutions that our brands and sellers can leverage on, to accelerate their growth into super eBusinesses. As we curate and create the best experiences for consumers, we want to build a sustainable marketing, sales and branding ecosystem that offers efficiencies and long-term value for our partners,” said Jing Yin, President, Lazada Group.

As one of the few eCommerce-only technology brands, Coocaa’s online presence has been growing strongly and steadily. During the launch campaign, Coocaa emerged as the #1 best-selling TV brand, and #1 best-selling brand in LazMall, in the Philippines.

As part of the JBP, both Coocaa and Lazada Philippines will invest in e-commerce marketing solutions and innovations. Coocaa will also increase its investment in Lazada Philippines, by regularly launching exclusive marketing campaigns and exclusive products, to expand consumer outreach and stimulate high quality sales growth.

Consumers will also be able to purchase a highly comprehensive and cutting-edge product portfolio from Coocaa’s LazMall flagship store, and enjoy top quality products and customer service.

By leveraging on Lazada’s vast logistics network and country-wide last mile delivery service, Coocaa expects to reach all households across the Philippines. This will potentially increase Coocaa’s market share, and enhance the company’s penetration rate in both rural and urban markets.

The strategic partnership is part of Coocaa’s ambition to redefine the industry landscape in the Philippines and Southeast Asia by introducing AIoTV for all homes in the Philippines, at an affordable price. Since 2018, Coocaa has allocated more spending in R&D, and is working with other tech companies, including Google and Baidu, to develop more AI products, to provide better entertainment options.

The trend of TV in the Philippines has changed significantly, from analog TV, to smart TV, and now AIoTV that enable users to seamlessly connect to greater content. One of the key features of AIoTV is its role as the center of a household’s connected devices, making the TV set more than just an entertainment device.

The launch of Coocaa’s 50S5G Android Smart TV has become the trailblazer for AIoTV – as it has been dubbed as one of the best in class affordable Android TV’s. In the next three years, Coocaa will be introducing more smart-home devices on Lazada.

This trend also corresponds to the growing smart home concept in the region. Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the smart-home market by 2020, with a value of 13.7 billion USD and an estimated growth rate of 27%. This means consumers are demanding connectedness and intelligence as part of their lifestyle, and the TV will become the center of family entertainment and communication at home.
