Telecommunications market of YemenPhone Cards, Calling Cards |
| Teledensity in Yemen is among the lowest in the Arab states, reflecting low economic development, with the provision of fixed-line services dominated by the incumbent operator. The national communications network is being modernised; an agreement with an international cable network has been concluded and broadband services have been launched. Until 2000 the incumbent also held a monopoly on the provision of mobile telephony and Internet services. There are now three competing mobile operators and mobile subscriber levels are growing rapidly, albeit from a very small base. A fourth operator is to commence services shortly as a tender for the country’s third GSM licence has been concluded. This report provides an overview on the development of Yemen’s communications network, brief profiles of major operators as well as statistics to highlight the progress of the communications sector in Yemen. |
