Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Recently merged telcos ETSA Telecoms and Powercor Telecom have named
Simon Perkins as CEO. He will take up his post in October and will be
based in Melbourne. He has an "extensive career in telecommunications,
including a long working history with British Telecom". More recently
he has worked with Millicom International Cellular, a mobile phone
joint venture operating in South East Asia, where he was regional
president for South East Asia and with mobile operator Comvik
International Vietnam where he was CEO.
ETSA Telecoms was formerly the telco arm of South Australian power
utility ETSA and Powercor Telecom of Powercor in Victoria. Both parent
utilities are owned by Cheong Kong Infrastructure of Hong Kong the
largest (86 percent) shareholder in Hutchison Whampoa which, indirectly
owns 46 percent of Hutchison 3G in Australia. A new name for the merged
entity has yet to be chosen. Also included in the merged business are
the telecoms assets of Citipower, another Victorian power utility owned
by Cheong Kong.
