Asiacell joins top 10 fastest growing mobile operators in Mena

Commenting on this notable development, Mr. Faruk Mustafa Rasool, Asiacell's founder and Chairman of the Board, said: "I am very proud of this accomplishment, a sentiment which I am sure my fellow Iraqis share, as we - an Iraqi company - have succeeded in deservedly acquiring a position on this list in spite of the challenges we face on a daily basis springing from the aftermath of recent wars and the ongoing terrorism that the country suffers from."

Dr. Diar Ahmed, CEO of Asiacell, also expressed his pleasure at this success, stating:

"The advanced and competitive position that Asiacell enjoys comes as proof of the success of our methodologies, which played a pivotal role in the establishment of our company's strong foundation and in winning us the right to hold the title of the fastest growing mobile operator in Iraq. Asiacell earned its place on the list due to what it has been able to achieve in the midst of the challenges and unstable security conditions that the country faces, challenges which have not stalled our efforts in delivering our services to every Iraqi citizen and catering to their needs by utilizing state-of-the-art, world-class systems and techniques, thus enriching the Iraqi market."

Asiacell's classification among the 10 fastest growing companies in the Middle East and Africa comes as a clear testament to the company's sincere efforts in its field, and its commitment to its nationalistic role in rebuilding Iraq and establishing a sound economic infrastructure for the country, and its dedication to expanding through serving new economic sectors and launching various internet and other services.

It is worth mentioning that Asiacell's subscriber base recently exceeded 6 million subscribers, which is a considerable number when compared to the number of subscribers of other telecommunication companies in the Middle East, and reflects the efficiency of Asiacell's large-scale operations and its unique coverage capabilities in delivering telecom services to all of Iraq.
