Call for SADC to Reduce Roaming Rates
Tuesday 9 June, 2015 - 10:10
GSMA says the time has come to significantly reduce the roaming fees that networks charge in the Southern African Development Community (SADC), says an international body.
GSMA director for Africa, Mortimer Hope, speaking in the sidelines of the World Economic Forum meeting in Cape Town, argued that, "I wouldn't say abandon, but we should reduce them [roaming fees] dramatically."
Hope maintains that, "We're looking at the SADC region and we're looking at economic integration. There must be free movement of people and services."
