        Egypt's Raya Technology and Communication may bid for the North African nation's second fixed line licence when it is sold next year, according to Reuters. The firm may look to a tie-up with an international operator and the UK's BT has been mentioned in some reports. Chairman Medhat Khalil said the decision regarding the bid will depend on the conditions of the licence and whether it will include international calls.
