Thuraya
Telecommunications recently achieved a new historic first in the
Taiwanese market. Together with partner Chunghwa Telecom, it has
secured licensing approval from the country's national telecoms
regulator. The two telecom companies can now deliver Thuraya's mobile
satellite services to customers in Taiwan.
Licensing
approval for Mobile Satellite Services had originally been limited to
enterprise users. Thuraya's recently-acquired licensing agreement
will allow Taiwanese consumers to access mobile satellite services
without applying for individual licensing approval at the NCC
Thanks
to the new licensing agreement, Thuraya can now deliver voice, data,
and maritime services to subscribers of Chunghwa Telecom. Its
Taiwanese customers will be able to access its services in 140
countries in Africa, Asia Pacific, Australia, Europe, the Middle
East, and the surrounding regions.
Thuraya
considers Taiwan to be an important market for growth. The Taiwanese
fisheries sector drives a significant demand for voice and data
services that are both cost-effective and reliable.
