The state owned telecom group, Algerie Telecom, according to the CEO will be ready for privitisation as soon as the implementation of development plan is done in 2-3 years and the services are improved and more competetive.
“I think the Algerian government will not open Algerie Telecom’s capital before allowing it to be competitive at the regional and international level.”
“It’s up to the government to make a decision, but, according to our development strategy, the group may be competitive regionally and internationally in two or three years,” he said.
The companies that are reportedly interested in Algerie Telecom’s stake include Etisalat and Zain Kuwait.
