MTN has expressed its disappointment next having missed out on the opportunity to operate a telecommunications network in Myanmar. This followed the announcement today of two successful bidders for operating licences by that country’s Telecommunications Operator Tender Evaluation and Selection Committee.
The MTN Consortium, which included Myanmar-based Amara Communications and M1 Telecom Limited, was part of the highly competitive bid process involving 11 other international operators.
