Featuring Chinese and English-language options on the site, Friendster hopes to promote communication and interaction between Chinese and English users. “We have the largest Chinese population outside the Chinese speaking countries, with members in Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Taiwan, who communicate with their friends.
The new Chinese content will help us to deepen our relationship with the region, but we are not ready to develop a simplified Chinese version for China yet,” said Kent Lindstrom, president, Friendster. In Asia-Pacific, Friendster has 35 million registered users and 23 million monthly unique visitors (August).
