Flamboyant reporting on the budget telecom network model


Posted on April 16, 2009  /  0 Comments

A public lecture I gave last night has been reported in quite an interesting way, with a headline “Govt, regulation irrelevant in telecoms,” that is not quite correct. As can be seen from the quote below (from the same story), I did not exactly say that government should cease and desist from all policy and regulatory acts:

These include allowing for as many players in the market as possible; finding more flexible and creative ways in which to allocate spectrum; having a light market hand, but dealing with competition issues firmly; and generally staying out of the running of the industry

The presentation slides of the public lecture can be downloaded here (some embedded video components may not work; this will be fixed shortly).
