[kictanet] Regulatory intervention or disruptive competition? Lessons from East Africa on the end of international mobile roaming charges

[muriuki mureithi]

Hi listers 

This is an easy but serious read on the dynamics  that put our region on the
world map on ICT

 

The purpose of this paper is to understand the conditions that enabled the
end of roaming charges in East Africa in 2006, achieving in weeks what
European regulators had struggled with for nearly a decade. To do so it aims
to explore the factors that drove marginalized operator Zain to seize the
competitive advantage created by it having licenses in three adjoining
markets--- http://www.emeraldinsight.com/fwd.htm?id=aob
