Benefits VP Jagdeo had announced that the liberalization of the telecommunications sector will set the stage for the installation of 5G services here, increased competition to allow for more fibre optic cables to come in, operation of data, among other benefits.
Indeed, the two major industry players – GTT and Digicel – have since announced a number of initiatives following the liberalization. For instance, GTT has announced a 600 % upgrade in broadband speeds for businesses. It has also zero-rated some educational websites for students during the COVID-19 pandemic.
For Digicel, it has recently launched itself as a digital operator that would be offering more to customers through a suite of apps such as for music, news, local radio, podcasts, messaging, marketplaces, and cloud storage. (G11)
