Arusha. Communications regulators from East African Community (EAC) member states are developing new regional rules aimed at reducing mobile roaming charges, improving cross-border connectivity and supporting the bloc’s growing digital economy.
The proposed framework seeks to enhance connectivity across borders, making communication easier and more affordable for travellers, businesses and investors operating across East Africa.
