  • Jordan: Sunday, January 13 - 2013 at 03:05

Jordan's information and communications technology ministry has said it is awaiting responses from the country's telecoms operators indicating whether they are willing to go into partnership with the government to complete the National Broadband Network project, Jordan Times has reported. "If none of the kingdom's telecoms operators show an interest in completing the project, the ministry will float a tender in February to complete a new phase of the project at a cost of JD30m," minister of industry and trade and minister of information and communications technology, Hatem Halawani, told the daily. The National Electric Power Co showed an interest in offering its infrastructure to facilitate the implementation of the project, Halawani added.
