Armenian Transport and Communications Minister Andranik Manukyan has
sent a letter to the management of the company ArmenTel, demanding an
explanation of the cause of breakdown in the work of the mobile
operator.
The minister described the existing situation as "incomprehensible"
because ArmenTel's subscribers had not been able either to make or
receive telephone calls twice in the last week, Mediamax
reports. Manukyan said that he intends to get a prompt answer from the
ArmenTel management.
Andranik Manukyan noted that the second mobile operator Vivacell,
which has been working on the Armenian market since 1 July, is
functioning normally. Vivacell has already sold 70,000 mobile phone
cards from 1 July, the minister said.
