Purpose of merger AG NET uses the HRM (Human Resources Management) cloud system that it developed to serve more than 40,000 users at about 700 organizations primarily in Singapore and the ASEAN region. AG NET is one of the largest providers of human resource solutions in this category in Singapore. For about 40 years, JAST TECHNIQUES has been providing system integration and development, accounting enterprise resource planning (ERP), cloud system and other IT services mainly to the operations of Japanese companies in Singapore. Merging the two companies will enable them to combine their strengths involving technologies, markets and customers. This will result in a sound infrastructure for providing a broad spectrum of digital transformation services centered on accounting and human resources. In addition, the merger is expected to raise productivity and cut expenses by downsizing the business network and administrative operations of the two companies. After the merger, AG NET will work more closely with JAST subsidiaries in Thailand and Malaysia with the goal of raising awareness of the JAST brand and speeding up the growth of the IT services business throughout the ASEAN region. 2.
