Its Official - Orange is reviewing its operations in East Africa
Listers Apologies for cross-posting. A Strategic Review is usually a euphemism for preparing to exit. I'm surprised it's taken this long for Orange to come to the conclusion that its position is no longer tenable. Even the laziest Board will eventually blanch at so much red ink.. CAK will eventually be faced with an interesting scenario... We are indeed living in interesting times.. Even as Orange is complaining of losses, I have at least five lines that haven't worked for a year despite letters from CAK asking them to explain. Is it a wonder then it is in the condition it is in? http://www.businessdailyafrica.com/Corporate-News/Orange-weighs-options-for-...
