Dear Reader,

THAICOM-4 (IPSTAR) launched in August 2005 and was the first high-throughput
satellite of its kind.

Today, Thaicom stands tall as one of Asia Pacific's leading satellite and
the region's leading broadband satellite operator. IPSTAR Broadband
Satellite has become the standard for the region's telecom industry,
businesses and government administrations that all require cost-effective,
nationwide satellite broadband connectivity.

IPSTAR has earned itself a track record of providing universal access to
broadband internet, enabling operators to offer broadband services in
low-density population markets, and putting communication networks (back) to
work.

But beneath IPSTAR's impressive track record lie the countless stories of
people and organizations in critical need of broadband connectivity: when
disaster strikes like in Japan, IPSTAR is there to help!

We invite you to access the latest IPSTAR case studies, keep up with the
latest news, and follow us on Facebook and Twitter!

Last but not least, we are pleased to announce THAICOM-6--our new broadcast
satellite which will launch in 2013. Of course, we will keep you up-to-date
on its progress here.
