Ken Mandel, the vice president and managing director of Yahoo Southeast Asia, said in a statement, Working together with Friendster ensures Yahoo! remains relevant to people by offering the best online content and experiences.He then added, This is a major milestone in the Yahoo! Open Strategy, our combined services will enrich the online environment allowing people to get more done faster and in a single place.
