This is an old news, but I think it's worth mentioning because it's a satisfactory to have participated and made a little contribution to an award winning project. (Yes, it's about my job, again.)

2002 Best Corporate Wireless Application or Service

The "Fleet Management" service is a collaboration effort between a GSM operator, Far EasTone Telecommunications Co. and a GIS vender, RITI Technology Inc.. The operator provides the GSM network coverage, SIM cards and dedicated USSD short code. The vender provides GPS and location mapping and tracking system. My role in the project is to design and implement the backend system that dispatches USSD traffic to external vendors.
A funny fact. One of my sisters recently found a new job in the RITI Technology Inc.. What a coincident!

The Trophy from the Company

Every team member in the project was given a trophy for the contribution, so I also got one on my desktop.
