SeaVisionBurma Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Mobile operator Ooredoo has built about 100 cell towers with hundreds more in the pipeline ahead of its expected launch in the third quarter 2014, according to CEO Ross Cormack. From The Myanmar Times, by Jeremy Mullins The Qatar-based telco expects to have about 30 percent population coverage at launch, particularly in Yangon, Mandalay and Nay Pyi Taw but also other areas, he said during a press update in Yangon on May 25. Although the firm claims to have about 100 towers up in the air, it has started work on 400 and expects to have 1000 by the end of the year, he said. Securing local government permission to build individual towers is not simple, particularly given the number of towers to be built, with Ooredoo, Telenor and Myanma Posts and Telecommunications all looking at builds in Myanmar.
