EDCH organizes the first GSM Roaming Advisory Board

This Board, the first of its kind in the Middle East and Africa, comprises of international GSM roaming experts representing 35 countries.

Ahmed Al Mehyas, Manager of EDCH, said: 'We are excited about the formation of this Advisory Board, and look forward to laying down the strategy for international GSM roaming for this region. The additional value that we can bring to our clients will be immense, and the GSM roaming business in the region itself will be expanded and enhanced. Through the two annual meetings, we want to show how the regional GSM industry can benefit from the coming together of its key players. For the first time, operators have gathered for the simple objective of improving the roaming service for their customers.'

Some of the major group operators that are attending include MTC, Wataniya Vodacom, Celtel, Warid, and Etisalat and all its international companies.
