The government is to merge the two state-owned, loss-making telecommunications companies, Telecommunication de Mozambique (TdM) which is responsible for fixed line telephone and internet and Moçambique Cellular (mCel), the mobile phone company.
The goal is to cut losses and probably to privatise the companies and attract essential investment.
Meanwhile, @Verdade reports that the Instituto das Comunicações de Moçambique signed a contract worth tens of millions dollars with the Chinese company Huawei for the purchase of more than 200 mobile stations without first issuing a public tender. In addition, the Administrative Court (Tribunal Administrativo) rejected the contract, but the deal went on as planned and the equipment was delivered to mCel.
