KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA & BELLEVUE, USA: Celcom, the largest 3G mobile operator in Malaysia, has selected Motricity to provide the technology platform that will deliver personalized, relevant mobile experiences to Celcom's 11million feature and 3G Smartphone subscribers.

Motricity's mCore Platform will offer Celcom subscribers a personalized mobile Internet browsing experience with the content and information they want on their mobile phones.

"As the largest 3G provider in Malaysia, we are always seeking new ways to offer subscribers the highest quality mobile data experience and are enthused to partner with Motricity with this goal in mind," said Datuk Seri Shazzalli Ramly, CEO, Celcom.

The mCore Platform sits at the center of the mobile data ecosystem, facilitating the distribution and use of mobile content and applications, mobile commerce and other mobile data marketing services. It will allow consumers to more easily access their social networks, make purchases and find information on their mobile devices, giving them better access to the content and information they care about most.
