Good afternoon. News broke yesterday afternoon that the government had “recommended” to the National Institute of Telecommunications of Mozambique (INCM), the telecoms regulator, to suspend the mobile phone tariffs it introduced earlier this month. As we have noted before, the tariffs have significantly increased the cost of mobile phone usage, including Internet access, by banning the use of unlimited service packages.
