The Standard e-Paper
Fearless, Trusted News
The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key
influence in matters of national and international interest.
Stakeholders in the mobile industry recommended in May that the amount of money telecom companies pay each other for calls that terminate in a rival’s network be reduced from Sh2.21 to Sh1.60, but industry regulator, the Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK), has up to now failed to ratify the decision.
We cannot tell why the commission has opted to stall on the issue, and can only suppose that the procrastination may have to do with partisan interests at play, and possibly reluctance by a section of the Government to support it because of concerns over potential revenue lose.
