Connecting Telenor Myanmar to the world

Telenor Global Services (TGS) is the international gateway for international voice and SMS services to Telenor Myanmar, connecting millions of people to the rest of the world.

Telenor has launched their 2G and 3G services for the people of Myanmar by opening mobile networks in the cities of Mandalay, Nay Pyi Taw and Yangon. With a population of 51 million and a mobile penetration rate of less than 10%, Myanmar presents a huge opportunity for Telenor to connect millions of people to the many benefits of mobile services.

TGS will extend these services to the international markets by connecting Telenor Myanmar to the rest of the world making it possible for people throughout the country to enjoy international quality voice and SMS services.

“TGS is the international gateway for all Telenor operations world-wide. We are proud of being chosen as the trusted carrier for Telenor Myanmar. TGS is thankful to be a part of this business opportunity in Myanmar, and we are eager to do our outmost to deliver in accordance with the expectations from Telenor Myanmar”, says Bjørn Iversen, CEO at TGS

“Myanmar has suffered from a lack of international connectivity for years, and many people in this market have family members living and working in the neighbouring countries. It has been a challenge for them to stay connected due to low quality and high rates. With our new connectivity in place, there is real added value to the new mobile customers. TGS is a one stop shop within the Telenor family and offered us competitive terms, which contributes to our goal of offering affordable telecoms services to the people of Myanmar”, says Maria Louise Mousten Dyhr Toft, VP – Head of Product & Wholesale, Telenor Myanmar.

“Although we are a wholesale company we have always focused on the end customer. Our strive to fulfil the end customer needs and expectations has been the key factor behind our success. Our aim is to ensure excellent quality and offer mobile communications that will enable socioeconomic development. People want network and services that works for international communications. That is what TGS offers”, Bjørn ends.
