“Kalimat Telecom, Iraq’s national telecom network launched the first WiMax network in Baghdad. The $500 million project is the national Fixed Wireless Local Loop (WLL) Telephony and Data provider aiming to serve 28 million Iraqi citizens. Barely five percent penetration in Iraq for obvious security problems there in the past, but with the improving situation, Kalimat Telecom is now poised to take off and plans to secure 60 percent of Iraqi subscribers in the next two years.”

Very interesting to see how Iraq is building up and the infrastructure that’s in place. I wonder how their over telecom situation is moving along?
