Capital Expenditure in the African Telecommunications Market to Skyrocket.CAPE TOWN Cape Town or Capetown, city (1991 pop. 854,616), legislative capital of South Africa and capital of Western Cape, a port on the Atlantic Ocean. It was the capital of Cape Province before that province's subdivision in 1994. -- The African telecommunications market is on the threshold of remarkable growth and countries that do not invest adequately in telecommunications will be left on the wrong side of the widening digital divide. There are numerous projects underway and in the pipeline that will see significant development within the telecommunications space.

Perhaps, the most important activity in the telecommunications market is the laying of undersea cables. These cables are central to the expansion of telecommunications services throughout Africa, although there are misgivings over their huge costs. The introduction of these cables will help provide connectivity in the underserved East African Adj. 1. East African - of or relating to or located in East Africa coast. "Despite their importance to the development of the telecommunications industry, the undersea cable projects are restrained by political disagreements and policy uncertainties around cable ownership and project control," says Frost & Sullivan Industry Analyst Lindsey McDonald Lindsey McDonald is a fictional character from the television series Angel. He first appeared in the series' first episode, "City of," and featured prominently in the story arcs of Seasons One, Two, and Five. Lindsey is portrayed by Christian Kane. . "Governments, regulatory authorities, network operators and other key stakeholders have to reach a consensus regarding strategies and ensure that the cables are laid as quickly as possible." These challenges notwithstanding, there are abundant opportunities for investors in the African telecommunications sector. There are several prospects for partnerships between industrial companies and the telecommunications sector, considering that oil and gas as well as mining projects are heavily dependent on telecommunications. These partnerships can help telecom operators share their expenditure and aid in the establishment of high-quality infrastructure for use by the industrial companies as well as the local communities. The Nigerian Communications Commission's (NCC's) demand that operators radically improve their services is also likely to boost investments in telecommunication infrastructure. Since the domestic telecommunications sector has not been able to match strides with the global sector due to its poor service quality, the NCC NCC See National Clearing Corporation (NCC). has commanded operators to cease advertising their services until they meet regulatory standards. "This will necessitate increased expenditure on infrastructure and present an opportunity to equipment suppliers," notes McDonald. "Network expansion and upgrade is likely to be the main priority for most operators."
