Further, it is anticipated that the demand for and use of mobile broadband services will increase significantly with the roll out of 4G mobile services across the country.
The report further points to an upward trend in mobile data subscriptions at 29.6 Million, which represented 99 percent of all Internet subscriptions.
Telkom says its new package represents the best value in the postpaid market for middle to high value customers and aims to see Telkom Move to push for more new signups to its 4G service across the country.
