How is WIOCC ensuring that pricing for internet access and international connectivity is low to the consumer?
WIOCC has developmental objectives embedded in its operational structure, meaning that we will ensure open access to all licensed operators along the east coast and practice a fair pricing policy for all. This means that telecom operators are able to compete fairly in purchasing international capacity from WIOCC. This, coupled with market forces, will undoubtedly exert a downward pressure on price giving the end user greater value for money – the end result will translate in lower prices to the consumer.
