Etisalat Misr is ready to begin allowing Telecom Egypt (TE) to piggyback off its infrastructure to offer local roaming services, Etisalat’s Chief Corporate Affairs Officer Khaled Hegazy said, according to Al Shorouk. TE had signed an agreement with Etisalat in June to use the latter’s infrastructure to offer 2G, 3G, and 4G services. Etisalat is also ready to offer 4G services as soon as the frequencies are geographically distributed among the three mobile network operators, Hegazy added. Etisalat injected EGP 40 bn in to upgrading its infrastructure ahead of offering 4G services, according to Hegazy.
