Telenor may Consider Discontinuing Operations

Telenor mulls closing Pakistan operations after failed merger talks.

According to Syed Tariq Fatemi, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister, on December 5, 2022, Ambassador Per Albert Ilsaas of Norway called on him to raise the issues being faced by two Norwegian companies operating in Pakistan, Scatec, a leading name in alternative energy, and M/s Telenor, one of Pakistan’s major telecom companies.

In Sukkur, Scatec is building three solar power facilities with a combined 150 MW of capacity in collaboration with Nizam Energy.

Nizam Energy owns the remaining 25% of the project’s equity, leaving Scatec with 75% of it. The project would be operational in another six months, according to the ambassador. He did, however, draw attention to the difficulty the business is having paying its vendors overseas.

According to SAPM, this visit would be an opportune time for the Board of Investment (BoI) and Power Divisions to meet with him to discuss the problems affecting his company and to persuade Scatec to raise its investment in Pakistan’s alternative energy sector.

The ambassador also made reference to Telenor’s growing dissatisfaction with conducting business in Pakistan as a result of the underperforming telecom industry. The envoy also stressed that Telenor may think about ceasing operations if its attempt to merge with Ufone fails.

In this situation, the Board of Investment can think about conversing with the company’s representatives to investigate potential strategies for persuading them to remain in Pakistan.

Names of three DMC administrators are now official.

According to the sources, MQM-P has also completed its advice for DMC administrators in three districts. The names of Shareef Khan for District Central, Shakeel Ahmed for District East, and Furqan Ateeb for District Korangi have all been proposed as administrators.

Wednesday’s consultation between the MQM-P Raabta Committee and Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori resulted in the shortlisting of names.

“Charter of rights” by MQM-P and PPP

In exchange for voting against the Imran Khan administration when the opposition parties planned to oust him from office, the PPP had pledged to allow the MQM-P greater room in Karachi’s administrative structure.

Since then, there have been numerous rounds of negotiations between the two parties to resolve the problem, but little progress has been made, causing the MQM-P to bring the issue up with PM Shehbaz Sharif, who has pledged to address their complaints.

The two parties committed to forming a “long-term collaboration to ensure unity among people; to promote social justice; and to secure the economic well-being of the people of Sindh, in particular of those who are left behind for various causes” when they signed a document in March.

The Supreme Court’s ruling regarding local government is to be implemented in letter and spirit within a month, per the terms of the negotiated accord, with the consent of PPP and MQM-P.
