Minister: Qatar to see more competition, lower internet prices by 2016 | Doha News:

"Government officials released Qatar’s first national broadband strategy on Sunday, a plan designed to guide and accelerate the rollout of high-speed internet across the country.

One of the key components of the document involves lowering prices and increasing accessibility for residents by injecting more competition into Qatar’s internet market.

Speaking at the opening of the Qatar National Broadband Symposium yesterday morning, Hessa Al-Jaber, the country’s minister of information and communications technology said:

“The speed and affordability of both fixed and mobile broadband remain major issues … (We want to) make the internet available to every citizen regardless of their social or economic situation.”"
