'Our continued success in Iraq's telecoms market is indisputable proof that we are the market leaders in the highly competitive personal telecoms space,' said Wilson Varghese, President of KALIMAT Telecom.

'The combined strengths of VoEx's advanced IP products and network experience capabilities will play a crucial role in supporting KALIMAT Telecom operations as it enters a growing, deregulated telecoms market. By launching VoEx products and solutions, KALIMAT revenue is maximized through this inter-carrier billing activity, which is usually the first or second source of income for fixed and mobile operators, will provide KALIMAT with the additional income it requires to support new services at competitive prices and to thereby remain a significant player in Iraq's telecoms market,' Varghese added.

VoEx Founder, President and Chief Strategy Officer Asaad Yahya Alnajjar, said:

'KALIMAT Telecom tops our growing global list of influential partners. VoEx's engineering vision and advanced solutions are coming true and alive in Iraq and will enable KALIMAT to cost-effectively deliver state of the art fixed line, wireless, VoWLAN and next generation services and inter-carrier partners.'

Mr. Alnajjar further added, 'With its new wireless VoEx G-Mode telephone, Kalimat has paved a seamless path to move customers up to its 3G wireless network. Unlike the competition phones, VoEx's terminals are made of only 100% new components and genuine QUALCOMM chip set, Kalimat's VoEx product offers both superior voice and high speed data communication. We have made a phone that is not only the best quality, but one that is consumer friendly. Our Data interface is all USB and installs with one click to any computer. Today VoEx phone is the only unit in the world that meets and exceeds the Iraqi WLL Phones standards and specifications announced last year by the Ministry of Communications in Iraq. We are delivering today to the Iraqi consumer the best line of genuine products, a quality that our competition failed to deliver.'

Previously during early license competition years, VoEx had advocated and offered in Iraq Hantel and Axesstel terminals, however due to the specific needs of the Iraqi market and consumers VoEx promptly responded to Iraq's market need and shifted to innovate and produce this new breed of terminals that offer high quality, superior design concepts and proprietary specifications tailored under the direction of the Iraqi Ministry of Communications to enhance the quality of life for all the Iraqi people by giving them excellent voice services along with high speed data, internet connectivity and video services to accommodate their every day needs. VoEx today leads the path for requiring all vendors to seize selling substandard products in Iraq.

Mr. Alnajjar and VoEx International Team has been very active in the research and development of wireless communications and information technology over the past ten years. His work has included extensive research in WLL networks, WiMAX development, multilingual Internet and .IQ management, e164/ eNum registries and DNS resolution, IP based products and applications, and the evolution of communications standards and policies.

For the past several Iraqi conferences, Mr. Alnajjar chaired and presented VoEx's vision and outlook for Iraq's telecom future and touched on the advanced data capabilities that CDMA and WiMAX will serve the community in a short time.

VoEx so far has been leading efforts in many third world countries in engineering support to design, build, operate and then transfer wireless communications centers and wireless networks. For the past five years VoEx has been very active in the design-build of several telecom projects in Iraq and had provided extended services to the many companies working in Iraq.
