Far EasTone to takeover DoCoMo's asset access in Taiwan

July 14, 2003

NTT DoCoMo said it is still considering its strategy regarding a 3G mobile communications service for Taiwan.

DoCoMo already offers its "i-mode" mobile Internet service via KG Telecommunications, Taiwan's fourth-largest mobile phone service provider. DoCoMo is the second-largest shareholder in KG Telecommunications with a 21.4% stake.

But KG Telecommunications doesn't have a 3G license as it withdrew from Taiwan's 3G license auction in December 2001. As DoCoMo originally invested in KG Telecommunications to take its "i-mode" and 3G wireless services to Taiwan, KG's lack of such a license marks a gap in DoCoMo's international strategy there.

That gap could be filled if Taiwan's Far EasTone Telecommunications, a mobile phone service provider that does hold a 3G license, acquires KG Telecommunications as media reports have suggested. Such a move would likely be welcomed by NTT DoCoMo, industry observers said.

While DoCoMo reiterated it is aware of a possible acquisition of KG by Far EasTone, it declined to comment on an Economic Daily News report Friday that DoCoMo had given its approval Thursday for such an acquisition.
