Investment in broadband services still have a big chance

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia's telecommunications sector have increased in the last few years with an increasingly competitive market A narrow, while some companies were closed and many companies have merged. But at the same time, the company also has come, claiming that new opportunities emerging in the country still large.

Internet service provider 4G and fiber optic Kingtel Communication limited is a subsidiary of Keybridge International Hongkong Investment in Hong Kong-based company put a new process last week.



Economic news editor Post Sorn Sarath met with classical Un Chan, director of sales and marketing Kingtel to discuss the opportunities and challenges in this sector .

How do you see the situation in the telecommunications sector currently?

Cambodia awesome just the last few years has seen a strong telecommunications sector developments because political stability and favorable economic growth, while the population also increased. We see today people have more than 14 million people, but the number of active users, only just over half And we see that they are very interested in making contacts telecom sector we see now in the downtown area rural and remote areas in the provinces have many smartphone users, and at home, they also use the internet, so This is a huge opportunity in the future for companies to invest in this sector.

He had faith to succeed in a crowded market but full of the competition?

We are confident because there are so many reasons behind. We have a parent company that has many years of experience in the telecommunications sector. We will focus on quality service. Although our current service provider, but the reaction back offer quality services was limited Our presence at the moment is to fill the vacuum of our competitors. What I want to emphasize on this point is that our observations of Internet users in the country is limited, especially in the Between 6 to 10 use seems very busy, which makes stutter internet service, so we want to solve this problem .

TRC recently canceled licenses VOIP service provider ISP because many do not operate. What does it do for the whole sector to maintain a license, but not the process?

We want companies that have licensed all investments to the economic potential and more telecom sector growth But they have a license and turn left. By doing so, it will affect the sector as well as the opportunity to use customers.

How do you see the merger between telecommunications companies in the past? What the market really does not need to be The company so much?

Previously, we have about 9 companies that provide voice service, but later we found Mfone bankruptcy will transfer customers company Mobitel, and our recent new Beeline merger with our company flagship smartphone and Hello merger. We look to a merger but actually buying.

This merger has positive and negative effects. The positive is that companies have greater force better service than before. Second point is so much bigger capital investments such as investments in bringing new technology Home.

The negative point we see that the merger makes the pressure to invest because if more consolidation too have a lot of buying and selling, it also affects your mood, investors who want to invest in this sector as well. They may think that the economy is not good. When many companies were closed or merged investment companies are also reluctant to extend existing investments.

What does integration mean for the telecommunications sector?

ASEAN integration will make local people can exchange other foreigners can work in the country easier, so more positive because it will spur economic growth and communication more than before. This means that before we work with the people of Cambodia, but now we do so require passports relationship telecommunications systems will increase and it's positive for the telecommunications sector.

What are the challenges for the telecommunications sector as a whole?

I think it relates to the government's policy on setting fees in this area. So far, the government does not yet have a clear action yet on Internet service because we do not know He will have to determine how, and requires that all operators are. We want the government to move now because there is a very competitive company that makes some priced excessive low unbelievable. LA
