Initiating a new chapter of growth
Nonthaburi, Thailand. April 3, 2012. THAICOM Public Company
Limited (SET BKK:THCOM) announced a change in its corporate
identity today, after 20 years of providing satellite
services. The new identity is in line with the rebranding
undertaken by its parent company INTOUCH, and its sister
company, AIS (Advanced Info services Plc.). The change in
corporate identity marks the start of a new chapter in
THAICOM's business activities, and comes at a time when the
company has posted impressive growth in revenues and
initiated a number of initiatives for future expansion.
The new symbol is derived from the traditional and iconic
"Thai Smile", and is presented in bright, warm colors to
reflect a feeling of friendliness and closeness. The change
in corporate identity further conveys THAICOM's commitment to
excellence in technology and dedication to overcoming
obstacles to achieve its goals. THAICOM also believes in
initiative, and as such, it constantly seeks for new and
innovative ideas to meet the needs and demands of its
customers. At the same time, the Company remains committed to
its responsibility to create benefits for society and assist
in the sustainable development of the country.
"In addition, THAICOM has pioneered and continues to develop
satellite technology. We are proud of the fact that our
activities have earned us trust and respect both locally and
internationally throughout our 20-year," Suphajee added. "We
adhere to the principles of good corporate governance, and
even though we may face obstacles along the way, we view them
as challenges that keep us focused on moving forward without
becoming discouraged."
"Today, THAICOM celebrates its 20th anniversary,
and it is time to modernize our style and get closer to the
people we serve," Suphajee said. "Our new logo will be the
starting point of a new chapter for THAICOM, one in which our
goals and direction are clearly defined and in which we will
strive to overcome the challenges and obstacles in our path
so that we can lay claim to our goal of being a leader in
broadcast and broadband

technologies and services in Asia Pacific, and most
importantly, a committed contributor
to society as a whole."
