KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 6): PUC Bhd's wholly-owned subsidiary Presto Pay Sdn Bhd has inked a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Pan Malaysian Pools Sdn Bhd (PMPSB), a licensed telephone betting channel provider, for the possible introduction of an alternative payment solution to the latter's business.

The MOU will be effective for a period of 12 months.

PUC's share price closed unchanged at 24.5 sen, giving the group a market capitalisation of RM151.2 million.
