World class mobile communication services to be available for the people of Myanmar six months from now
NAYPYIDAW, MYANMAR: Ooredoo has officially accepted a telecommunications licence to operate in Myanmar.
The Ooredoo Group chairman and the Ooredoo Myanmar chief executive formally accepted the licence at a ceremony in Naypyidaw hosted by the Union Government of the Republic of Myanmar.
Ooredoo Group chairman, His Excellency Sheikh Abdullah Bin Mohammed Bin Saud Al-Thani, said: "It has been an honour to be here today to accept our licence. We look forward to working in partnership with the government of Myanmar to develop a world class network which brings the benefits of mobile technology to Myanmar's people."
The Union Minister Minstry of Communications and Information Technology H. E. U Myat Hein said: "On behalf of the Union Government and of the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology, I would like to express our confidence in as a government in Ooredoo that they will be able to meet their commitments and also contribute to the Union Government's development objectives. I have seen Ooredoo Myanmar already actively involved in some CSR activities, and I am pleased to acknowledge that you will be taking in quite a significant number of new local recruits and give job opportunities for a large number of Myanmar women besides your other commitments."
This marks an important milestone for Ooredoo as the company remains on track to meet its commitment to deliver life-enriching mobile communication services for Myanmar's people in six months' time. At launch it is expected that the company's services will be available in a majority of the major cities, expanding rapidly to include rural areas and more remote communities.
Since its successful bid for a licence Ooredoo has been establishing itself and laying the foundation for its business to become an integral part of the Myanmar community.
In Myanmar, as in operations across its international network, Ooredoo will offer a wide range of mobile communications services to enrich people's lives that go beyond voice and data to include mobile money services, mobile health, services to support farmers and agriculture and targeted initiatives for women and young people.
