"TELENOR" in action now.... - Muhammad Adnan Arshad - 03-17-2005
President of Pakistan "General Pervaiz Musharaf" has inaugurated the first satellite-based telecommunication network named "TELENOR" in Pakistan, yesterday.
"Telenor" acquired the license for providing GSM services in Pakistan in April 2004, and has launched its services. Telenor has its Corporate headquarters in Islamabad, with regional offices in Karachi and Lahore.
The license terms stipulate that by year 4, Telenor will cover 70% of Pakistan's 297 administrative Tehsil headquarters. Telenor will fulfill the license requirements and provide superior quality coverage.
Telenor is proud to build mobile communication infrastructure in Pakistan and looks forward to combining its experience in mobile technology with the local Pakistani high level of competence. Telenorâs primary aim is to offer top quality mobile services and promote healthy competition in the mobile market.
The company has covered several milestones over the past eleven months and grown in a number of directions. Telenor has successfully signed interconnect agreements with all four incumbents during December 2004, allowing its subscribers to exchange voice and data with subscribers on all active mobile networks including Paktel, Instaphone, Ufone, Mobilink and Warid.
Upon the successful set up of our LDI unit, Tore Johnsen CEO and President of Telenor Pakistan, and Kjell Nordbo, CTO, made the first official TP international call to Norway on January 27. In addition to recruiting hundreds of people, Telenor established its Call Center on January 28 in Lahore.
WHAT WILL BE THE IMPACT OF TELENOR ON THE OTHER MOBILE NETWORKS ???

I tkink that all the other mobile networks especially mobilink will face a tough competition with the launch of Telenor.
However mobilink has already come into action and has reduced the outgoing call rates to Rs.3.5 on Jazz connections.
