Strengths

Strong market position

TM has a strong market position in the fixed line and broadband markets in Malaysia. It is the largestintegrated communications solutions provider in Malaysia, and one of Asia’s leading communicationscompanies, with market capitalization of MYR11 billion ($3.1 billion). In FY2009, the group had amarket share of 95% in the fixed-line market. TM is also Malaysia’s leading broadband serviceprovider with 1.4 million customer base at the end of FY2009, which increased by 11.8% comparedto the previous year. In addition, the group is a leading provider of wholesale services in Malaysia.The group's strong market position has enabled it to enter into a public-private partnership agreementinitiated by the Ministry of Energy, Water and Communications (MEWC) in 2008, to launch thenational High-Speed Broadband (HSBB) initiative.

Strong market position, while providing a competitive advantage to the group, also allowed it to gainflagship contracts like the HSBB.

Diverse customer base

Telekom Malaysia BerhadSWOT Analysis

The group's revenues are diversified across different customer segments. It serves six principalcustomer segments: consumer, small medium enterprise (SME), enterprise, government, wholesaleand global. Wholesale focuses on bandwidth and other infrastructure to telcos, internet serviceproviders, managed network service providers, application service providers, global operators anddata centre providers. Global provides satellite, terrestrial and submarine fibre optic connectivityacross Asia, Europe, the Americas, Oceania, the Middle East and Africa.

The group's diverse customer base increases the asset utilization as well as allows it to diversifythe business risk associated with operating in a specific customer segment.

Market recognition

TM has strong market recognition. The company received a total of 22 awards in FY2009. In March2009, TM was honored with The BrandLaureate Conglomerate Award 2008-2009 in recognition ofits stable of successful brands that have strengthened the group’s brand identity, while alsocontributing to Malaysia’s equity. The BrandLaureate is the highly regarded branding awards inAsia-Pacific.

TM was awarded with the Trusted Brand (Platinum) award for its Streamyx broadband service byReader’s Digest in May 2009. During October 2009, the company received the Data Centre & HostingServices Provider and Managed Connectivity Services awards for the second consecutive year atthe 8th Annual Computerworld Malaysia Readers Choice Awards. In November 2009, TM waspresented with the Best Virtualization Strategy award by Hitachi Data System (HDS) for its use ofstorage virtualization to compress data at its data centers. Strong market recognition enhances thebrand image of the group, thereby bringing more business to the company.

Weaknesses

Concentrated operations

The group's majority of the operations are concentrated around fixed-line and related services.Following the spin off of the mobile operations, including domestic operations and internationalinvestments as a separate public company to its shareholders, the group's operations are mainlyconcentrated around fixed line and related services in Malaysia. In tandem with the global trend ofcontinuing migration to cellular and internet-based communications, the group’s voice revenueregistered a decline of 9.3% to MYR4,000.7 million ($1,139.4 million) in FY2009, compared to thevoice revenue of MYR4,412.1 million ($1,256.6 million) in FY2008. Resulting from the decline, voicerevenue’s contribution to the group’s total revenue reduced to 46.5% in FY2009 from 50.9% inFY2008.

Although, the group retained its information and communications technology (ICT) service business,and other businesses; these businesses may not provide significant diversification. Concentratedoperations will affect the operating performance of the group in coming years.

Opportunities

Growing broadband market

The broadband market in Malaysia is forecast to grow in the future. According to industry forecasts,the broadband penetration in Malaysia increased to 31.7% in fourth quarter 2009 from 29.2% in thirdquarter of 2009, and is forecasted to reach 55% in 2010. The broadband market in the country isexpected to grow to MYR2.8 billion ($0.8 billion) in 2010.TM is Malaysia’s leading broadband serviceprovider serving 1.4 million customers at the end of FY2009. Growing broadband market in Malaysiawill enable the group to gain steady revenues in the near term.

HSBB initiative

The Government of Malaysia initiated a plan to roll out a high speed broadband (HSBB) service.HSBB is a broadband service with speeds of 10Mbps (Megabits per seconds) to 100 Mbps forresidential customers, and up to 1Gbps (Gigabits per seconds) for businesses related to higheconomic impact areas offered through fibre optic infrastructure. The infrastructure is expected tobe rolled out over a period of 10 years with the Government investing MYR2.4 billion (approximately$700 million) and TM investing MYR8.9 billion (approximately $2.5 billion). The service will coverover 1.3 million premises by 2012.

As part of the initiative, the Ministry of Energy, Water and Communications (MEWC) and TM enteredinto a public-private partnership agreement to launch Phase 1 of the national High-Speed Broadband(HSBB) initiative, in 2008. The HSBB initiative will further strengthen the group’s market position inthe broadband market, as well as allows it to provide various high bandwidth applications like IPTV,among others, in coming years.

Threats

Intense competition

The group operates in a highly competitive telecommunications industry. Market liberalization,changes in customer preference for mobility, the price war, migration from traditional voice to mobileand VoIP and weak customer service intensify competition. The group faces competition fromcompanies such as Pasifik Satelit, Indosat, Telkom Indonesia, Deutsche Telekom, SingaporeTelecommunications, and Vodafone Group. Intense competition threatens to reduce the group'smarket share and operating margins by building pressure on the revenue growth.

Regulations

The telecom industry is highly regulated. A change in the law or regulations can increase the costof operating a business, reduce the attractiveness of investment and change the competitive

landscape. As the market liberalizes, TM is required to allow new players access to certain segmentsof its networks. At the same time, the review of spectrum relocation may impact TM’s future services,and mandatory access on pricing will lead to a lower margin for all regulated facilities and services.

Changes in regulatory environment may have an adverse impact on the group’s business.

Network disruptions

The group witnessed network disruptions in the recent times. In January 2010, the group announceda disruption of its internet services due to circuit faults on the Asian American Gateway (AAG)submarine cable network at Lantau in China and at the domestic international link at Genting Sempah,Pahang, linking Malaysia to the US and Hong Kong.

TM is committed to ensuring network and service availability to uphold its quality of service. However,some factors that affect service availability are beyond its control, such as cable theft, cable damageduring road works, and natural calamities such as lightning.The group has put in resources to controlsuch risks with programs like I-Watch for cable theft, road patrols to reduce cable cut risk, and floodmitigation programs. TM has also set up a Service Assurance Centre (SAC) and put in place acomprehensive Business Continuity Management (BCM) program to ensure minimum disruption toservice.

Network disruptions will have an adverse effect on the quality of services, which in turn may lead toloss of customers.

COMPANY VIEW

A statement by Halim Shafie, Chairman of Telekom Malaysia is given below. The statement hasbeen taken from the company’s 2009 annual report.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2009 has been a challenging and exciting year for TM. Challenging because of intense competitionin the broadband space amid an economy that was just beginning to recover from the global crisis;exciting because TM made significant strides in building a new identity as a demerged entity. Inreality, we have begun our metamorphosis into a new generation network (NGN) provider. It hasalso been a very exciting year, or rather half-year, for me. Having assumed my new position asChairman of TM since 31 July 2009, I have found myself at the epicentre of frantic-paced changethat is set to transform not only TM, but the nation.

At the core of this momentous transformation is the High Speed Broadband (HSBB) project that TMhas been entrusted with by the Government. The project is of great significance to the Company,which will necessarily enter a new phase as we transit into the requisite all-Internet Protocol (IP)network; and is of equal significance to the country, which stands to benefit immeasurably by a newworld of opportunities enabled by the cutting-edge technology we are developing.

There can be no doubt that this is an extremely exciting time to be of service to TM. It is a time ofdefining moments and new beginnings. The atmosphere in the Company is highly charged with adiscernible pulse, a vibrant energy fuelled by the determination of the highly capable managementto create a successful HSBB story.

The demerger has been positive in this regard, allowing the TM team to channel its resources andenergies more efficiently towards achieving the desired outcomes. As a result, our evolution into anew-generation communications provider is progressing well, while the organizational focus andplanning put into place is being translated into more efficient and effective performance, and greatertransparency.

Delivering Shareholder Value

TM has always prioritized creating maximum returns for our valued shareholders. During the yearunder review, I am pleased to report that based on sound strategies and the commitment of adedicated team, TM has made further progress, and delivered on our financial targets.

Leveraging on our strengths, we have continued to adhere to our dividend policy of RM700 millionor 90% of normalized Profit After Tax and Minority Interest (PATAMI), whichever is higher. Toinvestors, this is a strong signal that TM is indeed a dividend yield stock.

Telekom Malaysia Berhad Page 24© Datamonitor

Telekom Malaysia BerhadCompany View

TM paid a 10.0 sen (tax exempt) interim dividend on 29 September and proposed a 13.0 sen grossfinal dividend (less tax at 25%), subject to shareholders approval at the forthcoming Annual GeneralMeeting of the Company, resulting in a total yield to shareholders of RM706.5 million (or 6.5%).

On top of the normal dividend, TM is also committed to distributing excess cash. In 2009, we madea capital repayment of 98.0 sen per share, or RM3,505.8 million, to shareholders from the paymentof RM4,025.0 million by Axiata Group Berhad (formerly TM International Berhad) which had beenowing to TM. This is more than double the special dividend of RM1,654.5 million paid out toshareholders in 2008.

Indeed, despite the uncertainties of weaker global and domestic economies, TM’s share priceappreciated steadily throughout 2009. It increased 41.7% over the last 12 months, giving an excellentcapital appreciation to medium and long-term investors.

TM has managed its business prudently since the demerger and will continue to do so. As thebusiness environment picks up, and with our strong balance sheet position, we have every confidenceof continuing to deliver our dividend promise for 2010 and beyond.

TM’s responsibility to shareholders and other stakeholders is enshrined in our corporate governancepolicies, which reflect the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance and Government linkedCompanies (GLCs) Guidelines as contained in Putrajaya Committee for High Performing GLCs’Green Book on Enhancing Board Effectiveness. These policies are continuously improved on withthe adoption of best practices as they evolve locally and globally. As a result, TM’s corporategovernance procedure and practices have, over the years, become more transparent; we have,through the Green Book, established a more evaluative framework to stimulate greater effectivenessof the Board; a sound enterprise risk management system, a stakeholder feedback mechanism inplace vide the Senior Independent Director’s office as well as a balanced perspective from theIndependent Directors who form the majority in the TM Board composition.

Providing Value Proposition to Customers

The proof of our value in the market lies in the number of customers we have. As competitionintensifies in the telco industry, it is crucial to differentiate ourselves in the eyes of customers byoffering competitively priced products and services.

Like any good business entity, TM has always aimed to please the customer. But we decided thatbeing good is not enough; in wanting to be great, in early 2009, the Group made a structural changeto our business model to reflect a renewed emphasis on creating better value propositions forcustomers. The new business model is aligned according to our major customer segments ofConsumers, SMEs, Enterprise, Government, Wholesale and Global. Each segment has its ownneeds and behavior patterns which we can now study more closely so as to tailor our marketing,pricing and service delivery according to the different niche characteristics.

A common characteristic across these segments is demand for value-for-money products. To meetthis, we have bundled our products, for example voice with data and Internet services including

broadband, to create innovative packages that are price sensitive. Last year, several such bundleswere introduced, and proved exceptionally popular. Just as an example, within three months oflaunching the Combo Plan, more than 150,000 TM customers had subscribed to it. With this plan,by paying only RM10 extra, a Streamyx subscriber gets to enjoy free calls to fixed lines and ischarged only a nominal fee for calls made to mobile lines.

That our customers value these innovations is evident in the increase in TM’s broadband customerbase. I have great pleasure in sharing that TM continues to retain our market leading position inMalaysia’s broadband space with 1.43 million customers as at end of 2009.

New Opportunities

As the HSBB project gradually unfolds, it heralds a new era that will impact the way Malaysians actand think at the most fundamental level. The opportunities brought about by HSBB promise nothingless than a revolutionary change to our lifestyles and work-styles. With speeds of 10 Mbps andbeyond, Malaysians will be able to run multiple bandwidth-hungry applications simultaneously, suchas high-definition movies, gaming, complex graphics and videos. In real terms, this means peoplecan work ‘together’ even if they are apart; and accomplish more in less time. Efficiencies broughtabout by HSBB entail more free time, hence more time for entertainment; while the amazingapplications will provide consumers with limitless choice as to how they entertain themselves. Theamazing opportunities made available would have been hard to imagine just a few years ago.

The word that best describes HSBB is ‘enabler’. It will enable the development of a new generationof high bandwidth next generation applications. Video-on-demand, interactive shopping, virtualsurveillance of homes, and online medical consultations immediately come to mind, but are justsamples of the engaging experiences our consumers can expect. Increasing demand for theselife-enhancing products and services will spur the development of a robust ICT eco-system whichin turn will expand the reach of the HSBB network and drive up subscription.

To fully maximize the potential of HSBB, TM will look at novel ways of adapting the technology tofurther enhance the quality of life of our customers. We will explore all possible permutations andcombinations of the myriad products and services that we offer to more than satisfy our customers’needs. In other words, we will transform from a network-centric organization to a customer-centricone.

Our People

TM’s transformation into a customer-centric organization will necessitate a mindset change amongemployees. They will have to be more creative – to design relevant and exciting content andapplications that optimize both the legacy and HSBB networks; they will need to be more persuasive– to sell these products and solutions; and they will require strong interpersonal skills – to buildenduring relationships with partners and other stakeholders. Various initiatives introduced by thePerformance Improvement Programme (PIP) 2.0 already focus on increasing competencies to betterserve customers. However, TM will accelerate the process of change by providing essential support

and incentives to nurture creativity, innovation and dedication in personnel who are driven by aculture of high performance and service delivery.

Corporate Responsibility

Social responsibility is ingrained into the very fabric of TM. Corporate responsibility is a fundamentalon which we base our business decisions. It is not, indeed, an exaggeration to say we are lookedupon as a model entity to be emulated in terms of corporate responsibility (CR). CR is accorded thesame weight and priority as any other business operation within the Group. We strategize our CRprogrammes to have maximum impact on the communities targeted. Our actions are based on thebelief that CR contributes towards building a sustainable business.

Our CR initiatives encompass the four dimensions of workplace, marketplace, community and theenvironment. Within TM, CR includes best practices in human resources management. In themarketplace, we focus on meeting the expectations of customers, vendors, partners, regulators, themedia and public. Our community initiatives are mirrored in 3 major socioeconomic causes that wechampion i.e. education, community and nation-building, and the environment. Here, I’d like to noteTM’s foundation, Yayasan TM’s fifteenth year with over rM390 million spent in providing scholarshipto our outstanding and deserving students. Within the sphere of the environment, we are starting tomake concerted efforts to reduce our carbon footprint and that of Malaysians more generally withtechnological innovation. Internally, we minimize our consumption of utilities, and reduce wastageby recycling and adhering to responsible waste management practices.

TM’s commitment to CR is sketched in the sustainability overview within this annual report, anddetailed in a separately published Sustainability Report.

Prospects For 2010

By year end, our new-generation fibre network will pass through 750,000 premises and by end of2012, we will complete 1.3 million premises passed. By then, TM will have spent about RM3 billionfor the access fibre, the transmission, IP core and international connections.The telecommunicationsindustry is already very competitive; by 2015, it will be even more so, with new wireless broadbandservices that offer higher speeds. Increasingly, we will have a bigger base of young people, the NetGeneration, who are more adept at new media use. The telco environment is changing at a veryrapid pace. We at TM aim to lead the changing environment, and not merely adjust to it. Weacknowledge the need to be nimble in our business approach which necessitates speed, flexibilityand preparedness. Do I think we can do it? To borrow a famous campaign slogan: “Yes, we can”.

Acknowledgements

I would like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to my predecessor, Tan Sri Dato’ Ir Md. Radzi HajiMansor who stepped down in July 2009. He was an outstanding Chairman to whom the TM familyand I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude. I feel privileged to be joining TM at a decisive and excitingtime in the Company’s development and taking over from such a respected figure in thetelecommunication industry.
