    SYSSLINGEN Medlemsblad 3, 2014 Årgång 21 Ordföranden har ordet Säg den glädje som varar beständigt! När ni läser detta är snart denna fantastiska sommar slut. Lagom till midsommar avslutades mitt arbete med nya dödskivan, så jag kunde med gott samvete ägna mig åt att besöka ÅF Offshore Race inne på Skeppsholmen. Det är en fantastisk upplevelse att se alla dessa segelbåtar mitt inne i Stockholm. Särskild imponerande är den s k ”Antikrundan” med Salén Ballad, Wallenbergs Regina m fl fina mahognybåtar. Veckan därpå slog värmen till och jag har tillbringat en stor del av sommaren på Trovillestranden i Sandhamn. Jag har badat så mycket att jag börjar bli rädd att få simhud mellan tårna. Nu är det dags att återvända till verkligheten: lördagen den 16 augusti medverkade vår förening vid skärgårdsmarkanden i Vaxholm, den 29-31 augusti är det dags för släktforskardagarna i Karlstad och lördagen den 6 september kommer vi att sitta släktforskarjour på Vaxholms stadsbibliotek un- der en Kulturdag som kommer att arrangeras i Vaxholm.

  • Millicom International Cellular S.A. Tele2 Ab
    MILLICOM INTERNATIONAL CELLULAR S.A. TELE2 AB FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 31, 2001 MILLICOM INTERNATIONAL CELLULAR AND TELE2 AB CONFIRM DISCUSSIONS REGARDING THE POSSIBLE SALE OF MILLICOM’S RUSSIAN ASSETS TO TELE2 New York, Stockholm and Luxembourg – October 31, 2001 – Millicom International Cellular S.A (“MIC”) (Nasdaq Stock Market: MICC) and Tele2 AB (“Tele2”) (Nasdaq Stock Market: TLTOA and TLTOB and Stockhomsbörsen: TEL2A and TEL2B) today confirm, in response to questions raised by investors, that discussions between Tele2 AB and MIC are ongoing regarding the possible sale of MIC’s Russian cellular telephony assets to Tele2. MIC sold its cellular telephony business in Estonia to Tele2 in 1998. During these negotiations the two parties discussed the sale of MIC’s Russian assets but, at that time, decided not to proceed as Tele2 wished first to focus on building its Baltic operations. Tele2’s investment in the Baltics has been very successful and now the possible expansion into Russia is a logical step, which would bring a total of 124,000 proportional subscribers. Lars-Johan Jarnheimer, CEO of Tele2 AB said: “It is no secret that our Scandinavian competitors have made clear their intentions to develop mobile businesses in Russia to leverage on the increasing opportunities in this market, Telia combining with Sonera and Telenor through Vimpelcom. We believe that the opportunity to purchase MIC’s Russian assets is a natural step in order to establish our position in this growth market following on from our successes in the Baltics.” MIC and Tele2 have appointed Bank of America and Carnegie respectively as advisors.
