Vietnam telecom giant to scrap roaming fees with Laos, Cambodia from 2017
Vietnam Express International | 15 December 2016
The company expects to lose $1 million a month but hopes to boost connections in Indochina.
Vietnam’s biggest telecom firm Viettel has announced it will abolish
roaming charges between Vietnam and neighboring Cambodia and Laos, where
it has also developed strong networks.
Nguyen Manh Hung, general director of the company, said that starting
from next year its subscribers in the three countries will be able to
phone each other at domestic call rates, local media reported. Viettel
has developed the Metfone network in Cambodia and Unitel in Laos.
Hung said the initiative is to facilitate cultural and trade
connections in Indochina, but the company will lose around $1 million a
month.
In October last year, members of the European parliament also voted to
scrap mobile roaming charges from mid-2017 to save holidaymakers among
member countries from racking up massive phone bills.
ASEAN ministers of communications raised the idea of abolishing roaming
fees thoughout the bloc back in 2013, but no agreement was finalized.
Besides Vietnam, Viettel operates mobile networks in ten countries in Southeast Asia, South America and Africa.
Its brand value has been estimated at $973 million by UK-based
intangible asset valuation consultancy organization Brand Finance. It is
ranked seventh in Southeast Asia and 93rd globally.
As you know, the Vietnamese dog eater named Drgunzet is still around. You have already known that this poster Drgunzet is always every where on Khmer/Cambodian websites. This Vietnamese dog eater is dreaming a failure of Cambodia and Cambodian/Khmer people and dreaming big about the Vietnam (combination of China province "Hanoi", Champa "Central Vietnam", Southern Cambodia/Khmer Krom "South Vietnam") along with Laos and current Cambodia "Central Cambodia." You, as online readers, will see the skinny current Vietnam and then this Vietnamese dog eater Drgunzet will see the fat Vietnam in the near future adding Laos and Cambodia so that people in the world will be fooled by seeing the shape of current Vietnam "Skinny or thin" to future Vietnam "Fat or thick." You can check it out on the map on Google earth.
ReplyDeleteRemember, when Cambodian people or leaders forgot to include Koh Tral "Tral Island" in Southern Cambodia at sea starting from 1979 after the Killing Fields in Cambodia when it comes to Cambodia Map on Google earth. The Vietnamese leaders as Viet Dog eaters like Drgunzet would take the opportunity to add Tral Island "Koh Tral" to be a part of Vietnam called Phu Quoc. This is how the Stupid Yuon/Vietnamese folks claimed the island of Cambodia "Koh Tral" to belong to Vietnam. How clever!!!
Dude, stop spamming will you?
