Iraqi Telecom

Apparently Iraq under Saddam had even less cell phones than weapons of mass destruction. Now the situation has reversed itself and the country is becoming a telecom power. Take a look at this article detailing the situation.

Here are some amazing facts:
  • Under Saddam there were one million landlines for 26 million people
  • There are now as many as 4.5million cell phone subscribers today
