For the past week, MTC Vodafone, now known as Zain, have been agressively pushing their new corporate branding and outlook to Facebook users on networks within the Middle East and Africa.
Definitely a first in the history of creative marketing and branding for a telecoms firm in Wonderland, if not the Middle East and African region and congrats to them on using social media networks such as Facebook to gain a competitive edge. Competition is healthy! (we think so)
