[00:00:09] In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Hello and good evening, dear viewers of the news channel.
[00:00:13] Tonight's special news interview is about
[00:00:16] the status of the country's fiber optic network
[00:00:19] development, and we are honored to have Mr. Fatahi in the studio,
[00:00:23] the honorable Deputy Minister of Communications and the Head of the Regulatory
[00:00:27] and Communications Organization.
[00:00:30] I extend my greetings, good evening, and a warm welcome. In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. I extend my greetings
[00:00:34] to you, sir, and also to all
[00:00:37] the dear viewers who are watching this program.
[00:00:41] We are at your service. Thank you. Well, the fiber optic network, which is one of the important programs of the Ministry of Communications,
[00:00:44] regarding fiber optics itself and
[00:00:48] the development of this network and the difference it has with different generations,
[00:00:51] if you agree, please explain it initially
[00:00:54] so that we can see how much this network has developed in terms of these
[00:00:58] applications. Well, I would like to say that,
[00:01:02] in any case, depending on the type of consumption
[00:01:05] by users and the amount of data and
[00:01:08] content, based on the existing technologies,
[00:01:12] when the trend is increasing,
[00:01:16] old infrastructure will no longer be able
[00:01:19] to meet the needs of this large number of users. If you observe
[00:01:23] that in every generation of development in the field
[00:01:26] of communications, both fixed and mobile, initially,
[00:01:29] a definition of the field of operation is made. That is,
[00:01:31] initially, the goal, I would say,
[00:01:35] of consumption and the type of operation is determined, and then, through that,
[00:01:38] the development of generations occurs. Well,
[00:01:42] it's like a container and its contents. That is, you
[00:01:45] practically need to prepare the appropriate container
[00:01:49] for each content. Our past generations of fixed communications
[00:01:53] have been based on copper cables,
[00:01:56] and practically, for the past 100 years, in this country, copper has been
[00:02:00] the main basis of fixed
[00:02:03] communications, and we have not had
[00:02:06] a change of generation and technology in the communication infrastructure. This
[00:02:10] event that is happening now under the title of the, I would say,
[00:02:14] national fiber optic project is practically
[00:02:18] a change in infrastructure and a change in the communication medium
[00:02:21] from copper cables to fiber, which, well,
[00:02:25] has many advantages and
[00:02:28] diverse benefits.
[00:03:05] In many parts of the country, even in many cities, these
[00:03:09] are stolen, and their re-provision and recovery
[00:03:11] become problematic. The next issue is energy consumption.
[00:03:14] You see, because old telecommunication transmission
[00:03:18] systems and equipment
[00:03:21] based on copper have
[00:03:24] high energy
[00:03:27] consumption, and we almost reduce
[00:03:30] energy consumption by up to 80%
[00:03:34] with new fiber optic communication infrastructure. In terms of
[00:03:38] space and human resources and other
[00:03:42] important issues, the most important
[00:03:46] issue is increasing speed and quality.
[00:03:48] That is, in some cases, we increase
[00:03:51] speed and
[00:03:54] quality by up to 100 times when using
[00:03:58] infrastructures and communications.
[00:04:03] has happened, and we are forced to make
[00:04:06] this change for the development of our fixed communication
[00:04:10] network. We are changing
[00:04:13] our communication generation from copper infrastructures to fiber optics,
[00:04:16] and its security is also very good. That is,
[00:04:20] I would say that there are also advantages
[00:04:23] and benefits in these areas, one of which is, well, these are secondary benefits,
[00:04:27] that the issue of security and so on is also better
[00:04:31] secured than the previous infrastructures. And what
[00:04:34] services can a subscriber receive
[00:04:38] on the fiber optic network? See, because
[00:04:41] of the capacities that are created
[00:04:44] through the development of fiber optics,
[00:04:48] practically, as I told you, you have more than
[00:04:51] 100 times
[00:04:54] the bandwidth available to users.
[00:04:57] Well, now there are
[00:05:00] applications, for example, based on artificial intelligence applications,
[00:05:04] which are mostly content-based
[00:05:07] applications. These definitely need more
[00:05:10] bandwidth than what
[00:05:13] the country's copper network provides
[00:05:16] today. They need it, and now,
[00:05:19] because of the point I mentioned to you, the obsolescence of old
[00:05:23] systems and old communications, we
[00:05:26] may not be able to provide more than seven
[00:05:30] to eight megabits per second of capacity
[00:05:33] in communications, for example, ADSL based
[00:05:37] on copper cables. But we can easily
[00:05:41] and these new applications, these
[00:05:52] emerging technologies that are being used
[00:05:55] by users today,
[00:05:58] whether in the field of health, in the field of,
[00:06:01] I would say, education, all of these
[00:06:05] can only become widespread and a digital economy can be built upon them
[00:06:09] and have a market when this capacity
[00:06:42] and also higher speed and quality is needed for visual
[00:06:46] and video content. Well, if this is, for example,
[00:06:49] live streaming that wants to replace
[00:06:53] nationwide broadcasting, these capacities
[00:06:56] will definitely help this development of content broadcasting
[00:06:59] or video broadcasting. That is, in the future, for example, television broadcasting
[00:07:03] will be over fiber optics. See, even now, cable televisions
[00:07:07] exist, and networks
[00:07:09] based on terrestrial capacities exist. But
[00:07:13] if we want to change the entire capacity of nationwide broadcasting
[00:07:17] from
[00:07:19] broadcasting based on radio waves and
[00:07:23] wireless to terrestrial broadcasting, this definitely
[00:07:26] requires a high-speed infrastructure based on fiber optics.
[00:07:30] And since what year did we start the first
[00:07:33] phase or stage of network development? See, sporadically,
[00:07:36] anyway, in the past 10 years, projects and
[00:07:40] programs
[00:07:42] by the Ministry of Communications in the field
[00:07:46] of fiber-based communications
[00:07:50] have sometimes been a combination, for example,
[00:07:53] communication infrastructures combining
[00:07:57] copper cables and in some places,
[00:08:01] the use of fiber infrastructure. However, specifically,
[00:08:04] since 2023, the project that has been defined
[00:08:07] as the national
[00:08:09] fiber project
[00:08:14] in the country and during the 13th government has been an important step, which
[00:08:18] has begun and has been specifically pursued.
[00:08:21] It was almost one of the main approaches
[00:08:24] of the Ministry during that period. In the 14th government,
[00:08:28] from the beginning, this project was placed on the agenda of the Ministry
[00:08:31] of Communications as a main necessity,
[00:08:35] but with changes, which I will explain to you now, we had a change
[00:08:39] in the approach to implementing the project, and along with that, we started
[00:08:43] a very large national project at the country level,
[00:08:46] and that is the issue of migrating from copper cables
[00:08:50] to fiber. See, sometimes you define
[00:08:54] a fiber optic project and fiber development, and there,
[00:08:57] along with the existing copper cables,
[00:09:01] fiber-based connections are also designed and implemented.
[00:09:04] But what is defined today as the migration project or the "swap" project,
[00:09:08] its implementer
[00:09:10] is also the Telecommunication Company of Iran. And
[00:09:13] in one of my previous programs last year, a special
[00:09:17] news interview that coincided with the inauguration of this project,
[00:09:21] I told the dear viewers that
[00:09:25] all copper cables will be collected. That is, practically, the entire communication
[00:09:28] infrastructure of the country will be converted to a fiber optic-based communication infrastructure,
[00:09:32] and practically, copper will no longer have a place in this design
[00:09:36] and implementation. This project, these
[00:09:39] two national projects, both the fiber project and
[00:09:42] the "swap" project, which is called migration, are specifically
[00:09:46] and especially at the top of the Ministry of Communications
[00:09:49] and Information Technology's infrastructure development projects.
[00:09:53] Was that the change you mentioned? That change in approach
[00:09:57] to the H project is a change in approach.
[00:09:59] I would say that, in any case,
[00:10:03] at the beginning of the project implementation, first, we needed to create
[00:10:07] nationwide fiber coverage. That is, practically, because this coverage
[00:10:10] was not sufficient in the country,
[00:10:14] excavation was necessary to be done.
[00:10:18] The implementation of fiber routes was done, and active and
[00:10:21] inactive network equipment had to be installed. We interpret
[00:10:25] this as coverage, meaning the possibility
[00:10:28] of connection for users is provided. That is, within a specific radius,
[00:10:32] a node, a point of presence
[00:10:35] of telecommunication companies, which are, I would say,
[00:10:38] UNSP licensed companies from the Regulatory and Communications Organization,
[00:10:42] should have this point of presence. Now, any subscriber who
[00:10:45] needs this fiber connection should submit their request,
[00:10:49] and this connection should be established within a specific time. The approach that
[00:10:53] we adopted
[00:10:56] in the 14th government was to convert the coverage that had been created
[00:10:59] into connections. That is, in order for us
[00:11:03] to finally create a balance and,
[00:11:06] I would say, a proportion between the created coverage and
[00:11:10] the experience
[00:11:13] of fiber-based communication, which is high-speed and high-quality communication,
[00:11:16] the approach was towards connection. That is, we modified
[00:11:20] the laws and regulations in such a way that
[00:11:23] practically
[00:11:26] users, subscribers, and people would come towards
[00:11:29] establishing this connection, which, thank God, we have had good success with. So, it's not strictly necessary for them to request it, right?
[00:11:33] No, this request must come from the user,
[00:11:36] but the point is that we are providing
[00:11:40] incentives to communication operators for,
[00:11:43] I would say, creating
[00:11:46] connections. We have given special attention to that section, because, as you know, the funding sources
[00:11:49] for this network, because, in any case, at the beginning of the project, this project was not
[00:11:53] an economic project and, in any case, had its own
[00:11:57] special costs. A good decision was made that, in any case,
[00:12:01] part of its resources are being funded by the government.
[00:12:04] Well, these resources, now, how they should be designed
[00:12:08] and explained, at the beginning of the project, it was more focused on
[00:12:11] implementing, I would say, that part of the coverage that
[00:12:15] I mentioned was necessary to be created.
[00:12:18] But in addition to that, we have slightly shifted these regulations and,
[00:12:22] I would say, these facilities towards connections, so that if operators
[00:12:25] can attract users and
[00:12:29] encourage them to come and, I would say, request, go
[00:12:33] to their homes, inform, and make announcements,
[00:12:37] as I mentioned, we have had good success. We have had a significant growth,
[00:12:40] perhaps more than 500%
[00:12:43] in connections since before
[00:12:46] this government, and today, more than 2 million connections have been made
[00:12:50] in the fiber optic sector, and practically, an economic
[00:12:54] environment is being created for this technology.
[00:12:57] And when the economy finds its way, practically, users will also receive
[00:13:01] their desired quality
[00:13:03] and speed.
[00:13:06] This can self-sustainingly develop,
[00:13:10] and in the end, as I mentioned, it is the people
[00:13:13] who will benefit from the good results of implementing this project,
[00:13:16] and of course, the users
[00:13:19] and communication operators who will shape the country's
[00:13:23] ICT economy.
[00:13:43] are used. Out of this number, between 6 and 7 million
[00:13:46] have fixed internet, meaning out of those 17 million connections
[00:13:50] based on copper cables, they are fixed.
[00:13:54] For example, how much coverage has been achieved in a place like
[00:14:25] Tehran or other major cities of the country? For example, do all
[00:14:28] Tehran citizens, or all citizens of Mashhad,
[00:14:32] Tabriz, Isfahan, Shiraz, for example, have access?
[00:14:35] They can access. Regarding the major cities
[00:14:38] you mentioned, which
[00:14:42] I will discuss later in my speech,
[00:14:45] one of the points I want to raise with you and dear viewers is the issue of challenges
[00:14:48] that this project faces.
[00:14:52] Currently, specifically regarding
[00:14:56] major cities, especially Tehran,
[00:14:59] we do not have good statistics
[00:15:02] due to, I would say, the lack
[00:15:06] of excavation permits. Because, as you know, the foundation
[00:15:09] of fiber network development is based on ground excavation.
[00:15:12] Where should the permit be? Well, generally, urban
[00:15:16] management should issue these permits. Of course, we are constantly
[00:15:20] monitoring and following up on the issue in cooperation with the municipalities of major cities.
[00:15:23] In other centers and other cities, we also had these problems, but
[00:15:27] eventually, cooperation took place and the work
[00:15:30] was accelerated. The question you asked, sir,
[00:15:33] see, I said at the beginning of my speech.
[00:15:37] Anyway, we need a generation change in the field of communication infrastructure,
[00:15:41] and wherever these facilities
[00:15:44] are provided by urban management and
[00:15:47] in, now, road administration management,
[00:15:51] wherever these facilities and preferences happen sooner,
[00:15:55] the project will practically have better progress,
[00:15:59] and actually, our major
[00:16:02] communication problems today are saturation in major cities.
[00:16:06] See, mobile communications
[00:16:09] are mostly based on frequency, and this
[00:16:13] frequency has many problems, both frequency noise
[00:16:17] and frequency interferences that we have, and also the frequency limitations
[00:16:20] that we have. These become saturated and full. I would like to tell
[00:16:24] you that there is a definition of the proportion
[00:16:27] between fixed and mobile communication consumption in the world,
[00:16:30] and the main weight of communications is based on fixed communications.
[00:16:34] Yes, and well, for example,
[00:16:37] in the world, there is a norm that, for example, 70% of communications are fixed,
[00:16:41] and the remaining 30% or 80/20%
[00:16:44] are mobile communications. In our country, this
[00:16:48] situation is completely reversed. Well, the reason is
[00:16:51] clear: the lack of adequate quality of fixed communication,
[00:16:55] which has been one of the main drivers of implementing the fiber project,
[00:16:58] that constantly, when this project progresses and develops,
[00:17:02] this ratio must change, and we have set
[00:17:06] targets
[00:17:25] Well, today, this percentage of proportionality in large cities and major cities and provincial capitals is actually problematic, and users
[00:17:28] complain about the quality of communications
[00:17:31] mostly in these cities with higher
[00:17:35] population density. Therefore, it is hoped that the honorable
[00:17:38] municipalities and honorable city management will, in this regard, For example, is there a problem with the municipality now, because there isn't
[00:17:42] very deep excavation? These are completely specific
[00:17:46] excavations, and there are some
[00:17:49] different interpretations of the laws that have been approved,
[00:17:53] especially the law of the seventh development plan
[00:17:57] of the country, the seventh five-year law. There,
[00:18:00] it is clearly stated in Article
[00:18:03] 65 of the program law that all
[00:18:08] executive agencies
[00:18:10] of the country and public agencies
[00:18:14] are obliged to provide the necessary cooperation
[00:18:17] in the implementation of this project, and the
[00:18:20] facilities, ground routes, and other requirements that
[00:18:24] this project has, the legislator has, I would say,
[00:18:27] foreseen there. It has been approved by the parliament
[00:18:30] and they must fully support this project based on
[00:18:34] the approvals and tariffs of the regulatory commission.
[00:19:07] you have definitely been approached or at least seen or dealt with people who
[00:19:11] definitely need a fiber optic connection because of their specific
[00:19:14] application. That is,
[00:19:18] for example, because the distance
[00:19:21] from the user's home to the telecommunications center, if it exceeds
[00:19:24] a certain limit, then the copper-based connection is no longer effective. That's why
[00:19:28] the user uses mobile capacity. Well, mobile, as I said, is an issue
[00:19:31] related to frequency,
[00:19:34] and this frequency spectrum of the country
[00:19:37] becomes problematic, and in fact, the development of the mobile network,
[00:19:41] that is, the economics of mobile network development, is not such
[00:19:44] that you necessarily want to have 100% coverage.
[00:19:48] And for this reason, we are currently facing
[00:19:51] saturation in mobile network
[00:19:54] consumption. Users have
[00:19:57] problems there, and on this side, I would say that we cannot
[00:20:01] develop. Therefore, we are pursuing
[00:20:04] this issue in cooperation with the honorable municipalities of major cities
[00:20:08] and wherever we have this problem, and of course, we are using all legal tools
[00:20:12] to be able to bring this project
[00:20:16] to fruition sooner. The penetration rate is measured
[00:20:19] based on the connection point. That is, the unit with which you
[00:20:23] measure is the connection point. Yes, it is both the number of connections and the amount of coverage that
[00:20:26] has been created, meaning the possibility of connection. We have currently
[00:20:29] made more than 50% progress
[00:20:33] in the project nationwide
[00:20:36] in terms of the possibility of connection. If a user wants
[00:20:40] to connect, and regarding
[00:20:43] what I mentioned, because, in any case, the issue of connection itself
[00:20:47] has been a new issue, and of course, it does not have a specific number
[00:20:51] all over the world. That is, the amount of coverage that
[00:20:54] is converted into connection, now, the adoption
[00:20:58] rate or the take-up rate, which is actually a term that exists,
[00:21:02] that percentage of connection coverage that is converted into connection, meaning coverage means that you have done
[00:21:05] cabling and infrastructure,
[00:21:09] and only its connection, for example, happens point-to-point to the user.
[00:21:12] This no longer involves excavation and municipality. These also require excavation in some
[00:21:16] terminal points, but they also use other capacities, for example, cables.
[00:21:26] In some areas, which we call points of presence, points of presence where communication operators reach there and
[00:21:30] create that coverage, until it reaches the user's home,
[00:21:33] there are some discussions. You now have a significant difference
[00:21:37] between the amount of coverage and the connection, right? That is, your connection statistics versus coverage.
[00:21:41] Of course, I would say that not all coverage should be converted into connection.
[00:21:44] The number I mentioned is a percentage, for example, between 15 and 30-35%.
[00:21:48] This is the norm that
[00:21:50] happens, and well, the difference is greater now. It is greater now, because, as I said, the connection
[00:21:54] approach is
[00:21:58] now a new approach. This is to convert that coverage into connection,
[00:22:01] and of course, there has been very good growth in the past year and a half. We have reached more than
[00:22:05] 2 million connections from about 30,000 to 50-60 thousand
[00:22:08] connections before this government. We now have 50%
[00:22:12] network progress and 2 million connections. Yes, 2 million connections.
[00:22:15] Well, what is the final goal, meaning if it reaches 100%, how many million
[00:22:19] connections? According to the seventh development plan law
[00:22:22] of the country, we must create 20 million coverage,
[00:22:26] or the possibility of connection. That is, the number mentioned in the
[00:22:30] law is 20 million connection possibilities.
[00:22:34] Well, now, how much of this will be converted into connection depends on many
[00:22:38] different conditions. One of them, as I mentioned, is the economic feasibility
[00:22:41] for the user, the user's need,
[00:22:45] I would say, the quality and competition that
[00:22:48] communication operators
[00:22:50] will provide, and practically, the collection of copper infrastructures, all of these are a set of conditions
[00:22:57] that, I mean, this is no longer in our control or the communication operator's. We might
[00:23:00] create this 20 million coverage across the country, but really,
[00:23:04] the culture of, for example, converting a connection
[00:23:08] from, that is, a user wanting to convert their connection from copper cable-based
[00:23:12] to a fiber-based connection, may not yet
[00:23:16] exist in that area or space. It's just a price challenge.
[00:23:37] However, some users, and I'm telling you today, due to the problems we have in the field
[00:23:40] of mobile communication development, it is definitely necessary,
[00:23:44] and there is no other way. Its costs are high,
[00:23:47] meaning its subscription cost is high. Fiber.
[00:23:57] it's on the user's side, the cost of providing
[00:23:59] the fiber modem is there, which, yes, in any case, in the past year,
[00:24:03] the price of these connection terminals, or these user modems,
[00:24:06] has increased by more than 100%. Well,
[00:24:10] can we give a number
[00:24:13] approximately, for example, how much does a user who is currently
[00:24:16] covered and wants to connect have to pay? It depends on the tariff that
[00:24:20] the user... See, there is a competition now. Among the things I said we can facilitate,
[00:24:23] we have prepared some plans
[00:24:27] using the resources we have in the Fiber Development Fund,
[00:24:30] and it is our legal obligation to use them for the implementation of this project,
[00:24:34] so that we can provide incentives
[00:24:37] to communication operators through which
[00:24:41] operators can attract users.
[00:24:45] For example, one of the models is to provide
[00:24:47] connection services.
[00:24:50] Large internet
[00:24:53] packages, for example, are offered
[00:24:56] in installments for users. Well, these are some models that
[00:24:59] our communication operators are now defining, and in some
[00:25:03] areas, but in some areas, no, they determine
[00:25:07] the initial amounts for
[00:25:10] users. But we monitor how much of the incentive
[00:25:14] that has been provided to operators
[00:25:17] has actually been included
[00:25:20] in the subscribers' cost. This is a very important point
[00:25:24] that needs to be constantly monitored, and if this does not happen,
[00:25:27] then those resources have not been used in a targeted
[00:25:31] way in this work. Currently, the process
[00:25:34] is like this: We have considered
[00:25:37] facilities and financial incentives
[00:25:40] to constantly stimulate the market and constantly stimulate
[00:25:44] the operator to connect
[00:25:48] more users every day.
[00:25:59] coverage must be created. Its active
[00:26:01] network equipment must be purchased. Most of this, well,
[00:26:05] part of it is imported, but a very good part of it has been localized.
[00:26:09] I would say that now the fiber
[00:26:12] production industry has been established
[00:26:15] in the country, the modem production industry has been established in the country
[00:26:18] and has become economical. These have also created a cycle of employment
[00:26:22] and economy alongside it, and I would say that
[00:26:25] from a certain point onwards, this project will become economical
[00:26:29] and practically, copper cables will be completely
[00:26:32] collected, and
[00:26:36] people will fully, God willing, use the capacities of the fiber optic network.
[00:26:39] You didn't mention the cost now. At today's prices, if someone is
[00:26:43] covered and wants to connect, how much initial cost
[00:26:47] will they have to pay for a request and then, as I said, it depends on
[00:26:51] the package model that the operator is defining.
[00:26:54] See, in the migration project, I will tell you and dear viewers this:
[00:26:57] In the migration project, where the Telecommunication Company of Iran practically
[00:27:01] forcibly collects copper cables and fiber optic-based
[00:27:04] connections are created, if users do not want internet access,
[00:27:08] they will have their old
[00:27:12] telephone connection. Of course, that connection will then be based
[00:27:15] on fiber optics and will be a VoIP connection.
[00:27:19] That connection will not be the old copper-based connection that requires
[00:27:23] an initial quality
[00:27:26] modem. No, I'll tell you this now, because I'm mentioning
[00:27:30] it for the information
[00:27:33] of our dear people, no cost will be collected from subscribers there.
[00:27:37] It should not be collected for anything,
[00:27:40] for example, if the telephone connection migrates from copper cable
[00:27:43] to fiber, meaning it is converted,
[00:27:46] in our old terminology, the cable is converted from copper to fiber,
[00:27:50] then, according to the approvals of the Regulatory Commission,
[00:27:52] the Telecommunication Company of Iran
[00:27:56] will not collect any fees from users,
[00:27:59] and if there is
[00:28:03] any issue where a fee has been collected from users in the conversion
[00:28:06] project, our monitoring systems, our 195 system, are ready to respond.
[00:28:10] Should you perform the conversion with the user's
[00:28:13] request or not? No, this
[00:28:16] is the development of the Telecommunication Company of Iran. This is happening neighborhood by neighborhood,
[00:28:20] center by center. Well, this is also included in that 50%
[00:28:24] coverage. This is with that coverage.
[00:28:27] However, if a user
[00:28:31] needs internet,
[00:28:34] whether in the H project where they request it, or in the
[00:28:37] conversion project where it becomes fiber optic-based, and now they want internet,
[00:28:41] the modem cost and the
[00:28:43] fiber cabling cost inside the building
[00:28:46] are collected, which have different
[00:28:49] amounts. Before this, from each subscription,
[00:28:53] 2 million, for example,
[00:28:56] now, the amount I'm telling you, before last year,
[00:29:00] that is, in 2025, these numbers have increased,
[00:29:10] and I will also tell you this point: it still depends on the type
[00:29:13] of modem that the user wants
[00:29:16] to use. From now, the numbers that are currently available start
[00:29:20] from 4 million Tomans for a modem and higher. Our utmost effort
[00:29:23] is, our utmost effort is that the resources
[00:29:27] we have, the government resources that we are spending on this project,
[00:29:31] these should be directed towards, for example, the modem manufacturer inside
[00:29:35] the country, with the use of these resources, or the communication operator
[00:29:39] with the use of these resources, to be able
[00:29:43] to offer better incentives and promotional packages
[00:29:46] to the people and not want to collect the entire final price from the user.
[00:29:50] And of course, we have monitoring indicators for this
[00:29:53] and the commitments of operators are constantly monitored
[00:29:57] in project control meetings, and if a communication operator
[00:30:01] cannot fulfill their commitments, I would say that
[00:30:04] they will be subject to penalties
[00:30:07] and the monitoring tools that we have in
[00:30:11] the Ministry of Communications and the Regulatory Organization We are, but right now, with the internet
[00:30:15] I'm using, the constant complaint is that our internet is expensive
[00:30:18] and low quality. This means the speed
[00:30:21] and everything, the speed is not acceptable at all, and the cost
[00:30:25] is high. Well, these regulations, these supervisions
[00:30:28] exist even now, but people are not
[00:30:31] satisfied. What guarantee is there in fiber that this won't
[00:30:35] happen? Now, its speed, the quality is actually the technology
[00:30:38] itself. In terms of price, the complaints of users that exist
[00:30:42] are focused on this quality. That is, after all, issues
[00:30:45] related to price, and I would say that if the costs
[00:30:49] are proportionate to the appropriate quality, users will definitely have
[00:30:53] the necessary satisfaction. That is, our principle in the systems
[00:30:56] I mentioned, our complaint system and systems
