In the start the director talked about some plans they had discussed with him and are going to be executed in the last quarter of the year 2007. // i guess you came in the last 30 or so minutes, so you missed that part. The man has contributed substantially. Not an easy job, particularly in this part of the world. Query for you, Khushal! Are you happy with the new campus?

The man has contributed substantially.
Not an easy job, particularly in this part of the world.

Query for you, Khushal!
Are you happy with the new campus?

There were some really stupid questions. Fasi shared some valuable facts. The man has got a great sense of humor. There's a immense growth in telecom sector. Let's consider the stats from the first 3 quarters of 2007. You would start to believe what the Rhodes Scholar said to the group of approx. 100 students. Mobilink gained the most subscribers (5.45 million) in this period. Its market share has been decreasing gradually but that’s expected with the increase in competition and teledensity. Telenor was the fastest growing company, 45% of their current subscribers (5.35 million) were gained this year. courtesy: http://telecompk.net/2007/10/01/mobile-market-2007-mobilink-at-top/ What about these Pakistani Idol Auditions? I heard Geo people are coming tomorrow to the new campus. any updates? peace I was there from the start, and you are right. There were some really stupid questions. Fasi shared some valuable facts.

But actually I'd have to agree with Mr Zaka for many reasons, that I'm not going to mention here, just to quote another example of same sorta strategy. This is a little foody, (as I know you love to talk about food all the time so). Well, same is the case with Pizza Hut and KFC. More profitable is the former one, while the later has an outgrown network (though the example is subjected to the major cities only, but kinda marketing strategy it is, can easily be compared to that of cellular COs case). Ufff Khushal, so much celly post!

I didn't know warid was so successful. I had an illusion that warid was losing the game by stopping all around. But I still say that they'll be losing in the long run if they stop updating. And telenor is inserting its brand into everyone's mind .. so it'll reap the fruit in future. If a person doesn't have a specific choice, he'll surely go for telenor. Very informative ..
