MySQUAR commenced operations in June 2013, having identified a strategic opportunity to launch social media applications in the rapidly emerging Myanmar market. The Company's initial vision was to create an open forum social app, where users could see all users' posts as well as categorise posts into popular areas such as sports, music and entertainment. This was achieved through the launch of MyCHAT.

As the first social media provider focussed solely on Myanmar, incorporating Burmese customs, characters and language, MySQUAR has secured a unique first mover advantage and a platform from which to leverage its position. The Directors believe that the use of local language gives a sense of belonging and community to the users, and enables a fast spread across the mobile device users for the purpose of user acquisition. Accordingly tailored products and services are being developed and launched that will capitalise on the rapid adoption of mobile services by the people of Myanmar as the telecommunications networks are rolled out across the country.

To execute its roll out, the Company has developed a tailored marketing strategy to boost its corporate and consumer profile and intends to continue to develop its Myanmar-driven suite of products in order to build MySQUAR's reputation and engagement with the user, whilst also increasing barriers to entry for competitors.
