Motorola wins Thai GSM contact TA Orange has awarded Motorola a US$253 million contract to build its GSM1800 network in Thailand. Under the terms of the agreement, Motorola will supply radio access equipment and related installation and integration services for the turnkey system, already being deployed throughout Thailand's northern, northeastern and eastern provinces. "With this being the initial investment for TA Orange in Asia, we are proud to partner with such a highly regarded infrastructure provider as Motorola," said Richard Moat, CEO of TA Orange. "The combined efforts of Orange and Motorola will ensure the finest quality, value and services will be offered by this network." The 1800 MHz GSM network service is scheduled to be rolled out in three phases with nationwide commercial service expected by the end of 2002.

"German magazine reported that Germany's Siemens AG is in talks with its US peer Motorola on merging their mobile network units." Looks like MOT will go Chrysler way: Nortel predicts wireless mergers Irish Times; May 3, 2002 Nortel Networks said this week it expected a rapid consolidation of the global wireless network industry and planned to be among the three or four surviving firms. The comments came on the same day a German magazine reported that Germany's Siemens AG is in talks with its US peer Motorola on merging their mobile network units. Mr Pascal Debon, Nortel's head of wireless networks, which last month was also mentioned as a potential bidder for Motorola's wireless unit, said in a telephone interview this week he was 'open to any opportunity that makes sense', although he saw 'no such opportunities' at the moment. Mr Debon said he saw a clear need for companies to join forces and reduce the number of global players to three or four, from the current eight. 'I think there will be consolidation in the next 12 to 18 months,' he said, adding that it was too early to say who would win, although Sweden's Ericsson and Finland's Nokia appear to be undisputed leaders in the market for new, third-generation wireless networks.
