Georgetown: Following official notification by Prime Minister, Samuel Hinds, that the Telecommunication and PUC Bills will be progressing in parliament tomorrow, Digicel says passage can bring an end of the telephone monopoly in Guyana.
Digicel’s Chief Executive Officer, Gregory Dean says “Digicel is pleased to learn of this new development which is great news for Guyana.”
“The Bills have been on the Parliamentary agenda since August 09, 2012 and while the wait has been a long one, we welcome the decision to progress following fruitful discussions between the Government and stakeholders,” Dean said.
Digicel can begin preparations with more certainty to introduce a number of incredible products and services especially in the areas of international calling and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as the company seeks to become Guyana’s leading communications network instead of only providing mobile communication services.
“The people of Guyana deserve to have the benefits of full and open competition in all sectors including the telecommunications sector,” Dean concluded.
