			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Asasah has become the first NGO and micro-finance institution (MFI) to utilize Telenor Pakistan and Tameer Microfinance Bank’s Easypaisa services for repayment of small loans. The facility will significantly reduce the inconvenience for Asasah’s clients, who are mostly women, to pay back the loans they take out from the NGO.</p>
<p>Asasah customers, after receiving a loan from any of Tameer Bank’s 100 branches will be able to return it through any of the 14,000 Easypaisa agents, present in 600 cities and towns across Pakistan.</p>
<p>To announce the partnership, a ceremony was held at a local hotel.  Those who attended included Nadeem Hussain, CEO &amp; President Tameer Microfinance Bank; Tabinda Jaffery, CEO Asasah and Syed Mohsin Ahmed, CEO Pakistan Microfinance Network.</p>
<p>In his comments, Nadeem Hussain, President &amp; CEO Tameer Bank said: “Easypaisa services are a fast growing mobile banking solution. Because our aim is to offer inclusion to the unbanked population, every organization that uses Easypaisa services helps us with our mission. With Easypaisa, we hope to bring ease and convenience to customers of Asasah.”</p>
<p>Tabinda Jaffery, CEO Asasah in her remarks said: “Repayment of loans through Easypaisa agents will prove to be an extremely convenient solution for our clients who are all women. The facility will help in our aim to improve the quality of life of financially poor and socially deprived people by offering them small loans to enhance their productivity.”</p>
<p>Talking about the need for financial inclusion, Syed Mohsin Ahmed, CEO Pakistan Microfinance Network said: “At Pakistan Microfinance Network, we believe that the future of financial inclusion lies in building synergies to provide financial services to the low income segment through alternative delivery channels. This initiative will help MFIs like Asasah provide value added services to its customers and help improve its outreach geographically. We hope that other MFIs would follow in the same footsteps and build partnerships with Banks/MNO to provide access to financial services.”</p>

<p>An awareness walk was held today with the aim to promote a better understanding of disability issues and to raise awareness among the public about the rights of persons with disabilities. Telenor Pakistan sponsored the event as part of its Khuddar Pakistan program to commemorate International Day of Persons with Disabilities (IDPD), which is held every year on December 3.</p>
<p>Major partners of the walk included the Directorate General of Special Education, Social Welfare, Child Welfare &#038; Development and STEP (Special Talent Exchange Program). Organizations that participated included Saaya Association, Pakistan Association of the Blind, Iradah Foundation, and Ministry of Human Rights.</p>
<p>The participants &#8212; which included persons with disabilities, representatives of both public and private sector Disabled Persons Organizations, and Telenor Pakistan employees &#8212; began the walk on Jinnah Avenue starting from China Chowk and ending near Parliament House. Special permission was obtained from the authorities for the walk to take place.</p>
<p>Anjum Rahman, Director Corporate Communications &#038; Responsibility, Telenor Pakistan speaking on the occasion said: “The purpose of our Khuddar Pakistan program is to help create dignity for persons with disabilities by working with them and highlighting their abilities. We have been working with our partners for the past two years as part of our corporate responsibility initiatives. One of our major achievements has been the ratification by the government of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. We hope today’s walk will help in implementation of the Convention.”</p>
<p>Fazli Wadood, Director (Special Education), Islamabad in his comments said: “With more than 10% of Pakistan’s population having some kind of disability, it is imperative that this large section of our society is given its due rights. Rehabilitation of persons with disabilities and inclusion in mainstream work will enable this segment to become productive citizens of Pakistan. I appreciate the work being done by Telenor Pakistan in this field and its efforts to empower disabled persons organizations and disabled persons.”</p>
<p>In other cities too Telenor Pakistan observed the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. In Lahore, it co-sponsored an event organized by the Rotary Club Lahore Garrison where speakers highlighted the work of their organizations in rehabilitating persons with disabilities. In Nawabshah, Telenor Pakistan is sponsoring a day-long seminar on December 10, the objective of which is to provide insights into the issues of disability inclusion.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Telenor Pakistan has signed an agreement according to which it will outsource part of its customer services operations to Sybrid. For the purpose, Sybrid will establish a contact center in Islamabad which will initially comprise 100 customer relations officers but with the capacity to move to 500 depending on business needs. The agreement was signed by Christian Albech, CEO Telenor Pakistan and Iqbal Ali Lakhani, Chairman Lakson Group &#038; CEO Sybrid at a local hotel today.</p>
<p>Lakson Group has also agreed to port-in to Telenor Pakistan 800 of its postpaid business connections. In addition, Lakson Group will look at the possibility of opening Easypaisa accounts for salary disbursals to 10,000 of its factory workers spread across 15 group companies.</p>
<p>Christian Albech, CEO Telenor Pakistan speaking about the mutually beneficial partnership said: “Telenor Pakistan is strongly focused on enhancing its customer services. So we are delighted to be partnering with Sybrid, a credible name in Pakistan’s contact center industry, to be able to benefit from their expertise and serve our customers even better. We hope that our partnership will result in the creation of around 500 jobs in one year. In addition, the prospect of Sybrid considering using Easypaisa for disbursal of salaries to its employees is also an exciting development, one which we hope will lead to a positive take up.”</p>
<p>Iqbal Ali Lakhani, Chairman Lakson Group &#038; CEO Sybrid in his comments said: “Sybrid intends to provide Telenor Pakistan a holistic customer services package.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PIA passengers will now be able to pay for their air tickets at any Easypaisa shop, Telenor Pakistan Sales &#038; Service Center, Tameer Bank branch or from their own mobile phones via an Easypaisa Mobile Account.</p>
<p>An agreement between PIA and Tameer Microfinance Bank for the provision of the services was signed by Nadeem Hussain, President Tameer Microfinance Bank and Managing Director PIA, Captain Nadeem Khan Yousufzai. The signing ceremony was held at PIA Head Office and attended by officials of Tameer Bank, PIA, and Telenor Pakistan.</p>
<p>Managing Director PIA Captain Nadeem Yousufzai while sharing his comments on the occasion said that PIA passengers will now have an added advantage of Paying for tickets through Easypaisa outlets across Pakistan. “PIA passengers’ comfort and convenience has always been the airline’s priority and this agreement is another facility being offered to passengers. Currently, passengers have the facility of buying PIA tickets from PIA Booking Offices, PIA’s website and airline travel agents. The new facility will expand to facilitate our valued customers,” he said.</p>
<p>Nadeem Hussain, in his comments following the agreement, said: “Easypaisa is delighted to become a partner with PIAC as payment solution provider for their customers, offering them our unique branchless banking facility. Unlike conventional payment services, Easypaisa services are available round the clock and offer customers an alternative payment process which is secure, reliable, and efficient. We are sure that PIA customers will find it more convenient than ever to use Easypaisa outlets when paying for their air tickets.” </p>
<p>As a result of the agreement, a PIA passenger, after getting a PNR (reservation) by calling PIA Call Centre at 111-786-786, will be able to pay at any Easypaisa outlet and get the ticket issued. The receipt and confirmation will be communicated to the customer through an SMS. Passengers will be able to get a print from any of PIA Sales counter throughout Pakistan or from PIA offices at an airport. This can be done anytime even on the day of the flight. The facility is expected to be launched by January 1, 2012.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Telenor Pakistan has always supported bloggers and considers them to be online journalists. We believe they have a very important role to play in the evolution of media in Pakistan.</p>
<p>Having an opinion and expressing it is the right of every citizen however, a line must be drawn when that opinion distorts and misrepresents facts and damages reputation.</p>
<p>Telenor Pakistan is dismayed by the sensationalistic reporting of a blogger on one of the leading telecom blogs, Propakistani.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In a recent story on Propakistani, <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>http://propakistani.pk/2011/06/07/secret-british-aid-used-to-setup-easypaisa-gets-unveiled</strong></span>/ , the blogger alleges:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>“It was recently unveiled that Telenor has secretly used British funds to establish its financial services solution called easypaisa</em></p>
<p><em>However, none of the involving parties, including Telenor, Tameer Bank or the British government ever announced the existence or the utilization of this fund.”</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>The fund is NOT a secret:</strong></p>
<p>-          The funding was received by Tameer Microfinance Bank NOT Telenor Pakistan through the State Bank of Pakistan and not directly from UKAid (DFID) or the British government.</p>
<p>-          Tameer Microfinance Bank received it from the State Bank of Pakistan’s financial inclusion program under its technology related technical assistance grant for capacity building</p>
<p>-          Further details of the grant and its disbursal process are (and have been) on the State Bank’s website so were never a secret</p>
<p>-         <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong> http://www.sbp.org.pk/MFD/FIP/about.htm</strong></span></p>
<p>-          Tameer Microfinance Bank in its annual report published and available on its website, again in the public domain has declared all grants received</p>
<p>-         <span style="color: #99cc00;"> <strong>http://www.tameerbank.com/pdf/tmfb_financial_statements_2010.pdf</strong> </span>Point #20,  Pg 17 &amp; Para 1, Pg 18</p>
<p>-          An article was published on this grant in 2009</p>
<p>-      <span style="color: #99cc00;"> <strong>http://www.microfinancefocus.com/content/sbp-provides-rs-215-million-boost-pakistan-microfinance-sector?page=5&amp;quicktabs_4=0</strong></span></p>
<p><em>“Telenor on other hands, neither disclosed this information nor provided any subsidy/discount to end users for service usage against the funds it took from the British government”</em></p>
<p>-          Again, the funding was given by the State Bank to Tameer Micorfinance Bank and NOT to Telenor Pakistan</p>
<p><em>“It merits mentioning here that Telenor is making significant amount of revenues from it’s easypaisa services, while on other hands, despite of foreign aid, Easypaisa’s transactional charges are amongst the highest in all kind of money processing charges, locally and globally”</em><strong> </strong></p>
<p>-          Under its mandate, the grant cannot not be used to “subsidize” the cost of services offered. Since it was meant for “technology related technical assistance” it was used by Tameer Microfinance Bank to strengthen agent review and risk management systems and to enhance treasury and payment gateways for home remittances.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Visiting Secretary of State for International Development for United Kingdom, Andrew Mitchell along with Deputy Governor State Bank Yaseen Anwar visited Tameer Microfinance Bank Limited and Telenor Pakistan’s easypaisa outlet in Karachi today. <br />
They were accompanied by Nadeem Hussain, CEO Tameer Microfinance Bank. The visitors witnessed transactions being carried out at the outlet and discussed advantages of mobile financial services for financial inclusion in Pakistan.</p>
<p>Speaking at the occasion Secretary of State Andrew Mitchell said, “In Pakistan more than half the adult population, and two-thirds of women, do not have bank accounts or access to financial services. That’s why the UK supported the use of innovative mobile phone technology to empower poor people to pay bills and transfer money to their families in rural villages, and the UK will help further expand it to three million more people over the next few years.”</p>
<p>Deputy Governor State Bank Yaseen Anwar appreciated the role played by UKAid and easypaisa to enable financial inclusion in the country, “State Bank of Pakistan is committed to providing best of opportunities through an open and transparent regulatory regime which encourages more partnerships to enhance financial inclusion. State Bank of Pakistan is pleased to see branchless banking solutions bearing fruits to further strengthen the backbone of the financial sector in Pakistan”. </p>
<p>In his comments, Nadeem Hussain, President &#038; CEO Tameer Microfinance Bank Limited appreciated the encouragement by Secretary of State and Deputy Governor State Bank and said: “Enabling regulatory environment and international donor support are cornerstones for success of mobile financial services in Pakistan. Easypaisa’s ever increasing penetration coupled with our commitment to introduce more valuable services under the portfolio will go a long way towards making the dream of financial inclusion a reality”. Working with Tameer Microfinance Bank, UK Aid significantly contributed to the launch of mobile financial services in Pakistan. With more than Rs. 10 billion worth of transactions, easypaisa is the premier mobile financial service of Pakistan.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tameer Microfinance Bank Limited (TMBL) will offer NGO and microfinance institution Asasah cash management and service delivery facilities for loan disbursements and repayments. Asasah clients will be able to receive disbursed loans at any of Tameer’s network of 100 branch banking outlets, as well as at any 1Link ATM in the country, and repay the loans via easypaisa’s branchless banking solution.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Telenor Pakistan celebrates its 6th anniversary yesterday by reiterating its commitment to bringing the benefits of telecommunications to people’s everyday lives. <br />
Since its launch, the company has shown consistent high growth by performing above industry average every year. According to the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority’s latest annual report, Telenor Pakistan showed the highest growth rate of 14% in 2009-10.<br />
Speaking on the occasion, CEO Telenor Pakistan Christian Albech said: “On its sixth anniversary, Telenor Pakistan has already crossed the 25 million subscriber mark. It gives me great satisfaction to tell you that of the total number of subscribers in the country today, every fourth is a Telenor customer. With the belief in building around people, we have established an open culture that continues to be one of our biggest strengths.

<h2><span style="color: #ff6600;">Which Mobile Account Should You Open?</span></h2>
<p>Now where should you go for mobile account omni or easypaisa, Both offering the same services and both have pros and cons.Omni is charging less as compared to easypaisa and if you have ubl account and you open omni you can avail these services free for limited time period.And the thing which i like in easypasia is there ussd service, you can access your account just by dialing*786# and everything is on your screen,but for this you need telenor number and suppose if you like easypaisa  and want to open easypaisa mobile account but you don&#8217;t  use telenor for calls sms etc in this way you need to carry two cells or telenor sim in your wallet .But Omni account can be open on any number which you are using.</p>
<p>In Omni you have to remember sms commands and then send it to 8257  here Easypaisa have edge over Omni.If you want to buy jazz 100 card your command for this will be &lt; Buy J100&gt; and send it to 8257 and you can also avail all these services by using internet.</p>
