    Report Information More information from: https://www.wiseguyreports.com/reports/98349-somalia-telecoms-mobile-and-broadband-statistics- and-analyses Somalia - Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband - Statistics and Analyses Report / Search Code: WGR98349 Publish Date: 28 August, 2018 Price 1-user PDF : $ 750.0 Enterprise PDF : $ 3000.0 Description: Somalia’s telecom sector secures a new regulator Somalia’s telecom market has been sustained despite tremendous difficulties. The country’s economy has made it difficult to sustain investment in infrastructure, and the Al Shabaab Islamic militant group has on occasion forced the closure of internet services in many areas of the country. Furthermore, there has been a lack of guidance from a central government or sector regulatory entity since 1991, when a dictatorial regime was overthrown. However, some progress may be expected following the passing of the National Communications Law in October 2017, aimed at setting a legal and regulatory framework for the telecoms sector. The Law made provision for a National Communications Agency charged with encouraging market competition and overseeing the use of ICTs in promoting economic development. A Director for the Agency was appointed in February 2018. Through the anarchy which continues to disrupt the country, the telecoms market, dominated by the competitive mobile sector where seven networks compete for customers, has flourished. Some of these mobile services operators also offer fixed-line and internet services. Tariffs are among the lowest in Africa, and although the absence of regulation led to problems with frequency spectrum coordination and interconnection between networks these issues are to be addressed by the new telecom regulator.

  • Factors Influencing Mobile Money Transfer Adoption Among Somali Students
    International Journal of Business, Economics and Law, Vol. 4, Issue 1 (June) ISSN 2289-1552 2014 FACTORS INFLUENCING MOBILE MONEY TRANSFER ADOPTION AMONG SOMALI STUDENTS Ali Yassin Sheikh Ali Business administration department, College of Business studies, Sudan University of Science and Technology, Sudan, Khartoum Email: [email protected] Ismail Sheikh Yusuf Dhaha Department of communication, KIRKHS, International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM), 53100, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Mobile Money transfer is gaining popularity among peoples in several African countries, where people are struggling for necessities of the life. In Somalia, the leading telecommunication company (Hormuud) in the capital city, Mogadishu, launched Electronic Voucher Card Plus (EVC Plus), a mobile application technology for money transfer. People including students widely adopted EVC Plus for transferring, selling/buying, sharing, and receiving money to the family members, friends, and businesses. The current study investigates the factors that influence EVC Plus adoption among students in a private university in Mogadishu, Somalia, based on extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). By using proportionate stratified random sampling, 414 students responded to the study. The data was collected in June 2013 and was analyzed using SPSS version 17.0. The findings indicated that perceived usefulness (β=.275, t=5.435, p<.001), perceived ease of use (β=.222, t=4.826, p<.001) and perceived trust ((β=.331, t=7.185, p<.001) had statistically significant and positive effect on intention to adopt EVC Plus among students, whereas perceived risk ((β=.059, t=1.702, p=.089) was not a predictor of intention to use EVC Plus.

  • List of International Signalling Point Codes (Ispc) (According to Itu-T Recommendation Q.708 (03/99))
    Annex to ITU Operational Bulletin No. 1004 – 15.V.2012 INTERNATIONAL TELECOMMUNICATION UNION TSB TELECOMMUNICATION STANDARDIZATION BUREAU OF ITU _______________________________________________________________ LIST OF INTERNATIONAL SIGNALLING POINT CODES (ISPC) (ACCORDING TO ITU-T RECOMMENDATION Q.708 (03/99)) (POSITION ON 15 MAY 2012) _______________________________________________________________ Geneva, 2012 List of International Signalling Point Codes (ISPC) Note from TSB 1. This List of International Signalling Point Codes (ISPC) replaces the previous one published as Annex to the ITU Operational Bulletin No. 979 of 1.V.2011. Since then, a number of notifications have been received at TSB and they have been published separately in various issues of the ITU Operational Bulletin. The present list recapitulates all the different amendments that have been published up to ITU Operational Bulletin No. 1004 of 15.V.2012. 2. Recommendation Q.708 states that the assignment of signalling area/network codes (SANC) is to be administered by TSB. Each country will then be responsible for the assignment of international signalling point codes (ISPC) that will then be notified to TSB. 3. The numbering plan of Recommendation Q.708 contains 2 048 SANCs providing for 16 384 international signalling points. From these, currently 1 536 SANCs are available for assignment allowing for 12 288 international points. At present 962 SANCs are assigned; the reported utilization is 5 618 international signalling points. 4. In order to keep the list up to date, administrations are, therefore, requested to notify TSB, by using the notification form attached, as soon as an ISPC assignment or withdrawal is made, www.itu.int/itu-t/inr/forms/ispc.html .
