Mobilink continues to consolidate its market leadership in Pakistan's cellular industry, with the expansion of its voice and data network across the country. Over the course of 2012, Mobilink has been rapidly establishing new cell-sites to reach out to numerous under-served regions across Pakistan, to enable wider delivery of cutting-edge services throughout Pakistan.

Mobilink's investment in network expansion is a continuous endeavour, with 2012 alone having seen over eight percent growth in cell-sites, with the organisation's cellular network now spread over 9,000 sites, the largest within Pakistan's industry. The cell-sites have primarily been set up for improving voice and data capacity and catering to the growing communication needs.

Ramy Reyad Kamel, Chief Technical Officer Mobilink highlighted "This expansion activity is in line with the commitment made by Rashid Khan, our President and CEO at the beginning of 2012, to provide the best cellular experience to customers. Over the course of the year, we have optimised our infrastructure investment thus enhancing the coverage and capacity of Mobilink network across Pakistan."

In a meeting with Prime Minister of Pakistan last month, VimpleCom's management has pledged an investment of one billion dollars into Mobilink's network reach and technology. The investment will further strengthen Mobilink's unparalleled growth over the last few years, with the operator continuing to build on its vision to reshape lives through connectivity.-PR
