Ooredoo has reached 1 million customers in Myanmar, three weeks following the launch of its services on the local market. The operator targets 25 million customers by end-2014. Ooredoo provides 3G voice and internet services in Myanmar using its UMTS900 network. Since the launch, the company said it has seen strong demand for its mobile phone and internet services, with people queuing overnight to purchase an Ooredoo SIM. Ooredoo is one of two new operators in the country, which previously had only a limited, state-owned mobile network with prices beyond the reach of most consumers.
