Telecommunications

Telecommunications trends show spectacular changes, notably in the use of mobile or cellular telephones.

Studies show that the use of mobile telephones is strongly linked to trade: the more trading is done, the greater the need to communicate in real time. Access to this technology will take on more strategic importance. The population’s youth and the increasing number of urbanites will intensify this phenomenon. Internet access demand should also become a significant component, therefore satisfying this demand will find the fixed telephone sector becoming a higher priority.
