Arusha. Communications regulators from East African Community (EAC) member states are developing new regional rules aimed at reducing mobile roaming charges, improving cross-border connectivity and supporting the bloc’s growing digital economy.
The proposed framework seeks to enhance connectivity across borders, making communication easier and more affordable for travellers, businesses and investors operating across East Africa.
Officials from communications regulatory authorities across the region met in Dar es Salaam to review the proposal, which focuses on harmonising pricing structures, strengthening consumer protection measures and aligning operational standards among member states.
