Malawi has become the latest african country to introduce a mobile phone. Malawi Telecommunications Limited (MTL) introduced a new mobile phone amidst plans to establish a fiber cable connecting all parts of the country.
According to reports from Lilongwe, the newly introduced CM121L portable phone is configured to a specific zone but users can reach out to people beyond the borders of their location all the time.
Unlike the conventional cell phone currently in use, the 63g gadget has a voicemail service so that users do not miss calls.
Elias imaa, the Head of Marketing for MTL said, “CM121L gives you the flexibility and freedom of being mobile while connecting to your valued ones and doing business at the lowest rates.”
On the fiber network that is meant to supplement landlines and the new mobile handset, Imaan said the country’s sole fixed phone provider is busy connecting all cities to the link before the project rolls out to the districts.
But the marketing manager decried the rising cases of vandalism targeting MTL landlines saying it sabotages the operations of the company and national development.
