<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><b><i>SINGAPORE</i></b><b><i>, </i></b><b><i>9 December 2005</i></b> &#150; M1 and PLDT Singapore
are entering into a strategic partnership to provide prepaid mobile services to
the sizeable Filipino community in the region. The Co-operation Agreement was
signed today by Neil Montefiore, Chief Executive Officer of M1 and Alfredo S
Panlilio, President/CEO of PLDT Global. </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">The
mobile services, targeted for launch in the first quarter of next year, will be
marketed under the Smart brand by PLDT Singapore. Smart Communications, a
wholly owned subsidiary of PLDT, is the leading cellular mobile operator in the
Philippines and a household name to
Filipinos.  </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Smart
will use M1&#146;s network and operational infrastructure to offer voice and SMS
services to the estimated 130,000 Filipinos working in Singapore. It will also offer
value-added services such as Filipino-centric contents and m-commerce services
that will meet the needs of the Filipino community here. </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">This
new venture will build on the existing close ties between M1 and Smart, which
are both pioneer members of the regional group of mobile operators, Asia
Mobility Initiative (AMI), formed in 2003. </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">M1&#146;s
Mr Montefiore, said: &#147;This partnership will enable M1 to serve a very specific
segment of mobile customers by leveraging on the unique competitive advantage
that PLDT and Smart enjoy within the Filipino community. Leveraging on the
SMART brand and the good understanding of the communication needs of this
community, PLDT Singapore will be able to offer a suite of products and
services that are tailor-made to appeal to customers. PLDT Singapore will of
course be strongly supported by the excellent network and operational
infrastructure provided by M1.&#148; </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"> </p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">PLDT
Global&#146;s Mr Panlilio said: &#147;PLDT Global and SMART will bring their respective
strengths in addressing the growing communications needs of the offshore
Filipino communities. We are confident that our mobile services in Singapore, with the value of the
PLDT and SMART brands and its uniquely Filipino features, will be a perfect fit
for our OFWs. Partnering with M1 definitely strengthens our position to provide
excellent service as we will utilise M1&#146;s infrastructure.&#148; </p>
