“MEGAPHONE” THIRD CELL PHONE OPERATOR

Megaphone CSJC may become the cell phone third operator in Armenia. According to Maxim Savatin, the expert of iKS-Consulting company said that it is planned to invest money and to broaden the sphere of their activities. According to the expert, probably Megaphone should move to CIS countries, as much more is needed to get foreign countries. Possibly Megaphone plans to come to Armenia, as it is several years they the idea is discussed within the company. Megaphone would have good orientation in Kyrgyzstan and Azerbaijan also. To enter other countries would be even more difficult, as there markets are also closed, said the expert. Yet in December 2007 it was found out that Armenis will have the third operator. The applications of the third cell phone operator should be prepared for 1 May 2008. In the basis of international competition the results will be announced. Shortly the committee will be formed to set the rules and duties of the competition. Note: two cell phone operator work in Armenia. The first company is ArmenTel which belongs to Russian Vimpelcom by 100% and the second one is Vivacell the head shareholder is Russian MTC.
