Those who think "taming" SafCom is the solution are suffering from the inability to see both ways. Regulating market dominance is also counterproductive in that it is itself anti competition, depending!

If CCK has its way, some peeps wrongly think prices will come down!

The sort of regulation CCK is proposing is wrong because it is not "really" meant to protect the customer, rather to protect the weaklings who have been unable to size up in the market. That should be indicative, to those with eyes, of what will be achieved by the regulation.

Sample this; Zain or Con proposes to lower tariffs, Yu or Con or Zain hear about it and propose to do exactly the same thing to kill your competitive edge.

The reverse and the converse are by the same logic true! When one increases tariffs,usually the rest will because if they don't their profit margin remains low and the one increasing only has to revert back if the rest don't follow suit.

Sooner or later, all realize the non-logic and the futility of cutting tariffs. So what to do? Become anti-competitive and agree that each keeps their clientele and competes in other ways other than cutting prices. A nod here, a wink there, and tariffs start becoming uniform and always revised upwards! That's what you see in any anti-competitive climate, such as CCK wants to create.
