Malawi commercial city Blantyre has begun to enforce bylaws governing the city that bans the littering in the streets leading...
The problem is also here at MACRA. We charge the operators very high fees in licences per year…And guess what!; we spend that money globe trotting (everyone here from Messenger flies to international conferences/meetings). We are hardly in Malawi but busy attending conference after conference abroad. We don’t even invite the operators to attend and benefit from these conferences and meetings…Ofcourse we also donate to the ruling party of the day. The operators are paying a lot for the licences and they have to make up for that. I challenge my organisation, MACRA, to reduce the licence fees, remove interconnection… Read more »
Inu a MACRA lero mufuna muoneke abwino? Where have you been all these years? Or should we say it is Kumbatira who has seen that these telecoms providers are ripping off the consumers? Telecom Networks have been here since 1996 azitinamiza kuti they are still investing in capital assets, mpakana liti? Kuba basi! MACRA should indeed intervene. CIRMS ilowe m’bwalo.

Same old stories everyday what a joke of a Nation we are.

Tnm are robbers and Airtel is the best
That’s the end result when politics is at play. These are areas we need reforms.
My word to MACRA: Macra, you are a regulator and not a service provider. As you try to inform Malawians of their rights, you also need to consider policies that should govern the telecom industry. There should exist a legal framework that will guide the ISPs in conducting their business here in Malawi. You understand?
