SK Telecom in South Korea is one of the largest market capitalization company in South Korea Stock Exchange after Samsung.
South Korea is a country with largest broadband user per population in the world. SK Telecom, one of the Internet Services Provider in the country has contribute very much in that area. The fact that SK Telecom in telecommunication services also contribute much on popular handphone usage among it young people and also contribute very much in the success Samsung Mobile phone.
SK Group in South Korea start from Petroleum industry, then only diversified to telecommunication industry.
Similarly, Ananda Krishnan of Maxis also start from Petroleum industry. Then only venture into telecommunication industry. Maxis is now the largest market capitalize non-GLC in Malaysia.
Maxis, however, used to benchmark against Japan's DoCoMo. However, Docomo, is a company under government control NTT, thus it is considered a GLC in Japan. DoCoMo is more similar to Telekom control TM net.
Although DoCoMo is more advance technically. They even more superior than US ITT, AT&T in term of mobile technology especially their i-Mode technology. But it is difficult to get transfer of technology from Japanese. National car Proton fail to obtain technology transfer from Mitsubishi while Maxis has numerous attempt to court DoCoMo but fail.
I feel that Maxis should benchmark against SK Telecom rather than DoCoMo.
