GSM available in 95% of countries – but not Iraq

GSM mobile technology has now been adopted by 95% of the world's countries, according to the GSM Association, which is the representative body for the global wireless industry.

CBR Staff Writer October 17, 2002

The Association has added a further 57 mobile operators and companies to its list of members. It says that there are now just eight major countries worldwide that have not adopted GSM – Colombia, Djibouti, Ecuador, Eritrea, Haiti, Iraq, Uruguay and Zaire.

According to the Association, the growth in coverage and members proves that there are still opportunities for GSM operators and companies.
