Chinese Tourists in Malaysia to enjoy unlimited data with the new U Mobile WeChat Go SIM
U Mobile today
announced a partnership with WeChat to launch
the U Mobile WeChat Go SIM. This new prepaid SIM will offer Chinese tourists
unlimited data to enjoy social messaging on the WeChat app and free Lingcod TV
subscription whilst having unlimited data to stream over 100,000 hours of
high-definition movies, documentaries, and educational content out of China.
The
new U Mobile WeChat Go SIM will be the only WeChat Go
cobranded prepaid SIM in the country and it is packed with
other value-added services including 1GB of free roaming data for Singapore,
Thailand and Indonesia and 60 minutes’ worth of IDD calls to
China or calls made in Malaysia.
The launch of U Mobile WeChat Go SIM is very timely as the Malaysian
Tourism and Culture Ministry is targeting to attract eight million Chinese tourists
by 2020. With more and more tourists from China visiting Malaysia, the U Mobile
prepaid WeChat Go SIM is well positioned to meet all their connectivity
demands.
“U Mobile is
constantly coming up with unlimited ideas for our customers.
With the new U Mobile WeChat Go SIM,
possibilities are endless as the whole WeChat ecosystem goes beyond just social
messaging. Together with WeChat, we will work on packing even more benefits
like mobile commerce into the WeChat Go SIM not just for
Chinese tourists but for anyone who is a user of WeChat,” said Jasmine Lee, Chief Marketing Officer, U Mobile.
“We are delighted
to begin our partnership with U Mobile to offer Chinese travellers an enhanced
mobile experience in Malaysia,” said WeChat. “Through our network of partners
like U Mobile, we would like to introduce WeChat’s ecosystem to the market and give
WeChat users more value-added services.”
U Mobile WeChat
Go SIM will be available from 6th December 2017, and Chinese tourists may opt to purchase the prepaid SIM pack from Sunway Media retailers
in China prior to travelling. The
SIM card will also be available at 138 U Mobile outlets in Malaysia as well as the various
international airports in the country such as KLIA and KLIA 2.
