YEREVAN. - There is no process of monopolization in the data transfer
market of Armenia, General Manager Ralph Yirikian of VivaCell-MTS
company told Armenian News-NEWS.am.
In his words, this market has two important segments - wired and
wireless - which rules out monopoly.
`The wired has already started competing with the wireless. In its
turn, the wired communication market is becoming more network-oriented
and competitive,' Yirikian said.
As for the small providers being pushed out of the market, or forming
`clans,' Yirikian stated that in vigorously developing markets it is
normal for some small companies to lose their positions, or to
`dissolve' into the big companies.
`That is one of the phenomena of free competition, which is clear for
all capitalist economies. But there are rules, boundaries, [and]
regulations,' Yirikian noted.
In his view, the wireless technology will not lose its share in the
market and be pushed out by the wired technology. As per Ralph
Yirikian, Armenia has all the types of data transfer technology, and
this bespeaks a healthy competition in the country.
