AMMAN — The Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (TRC) on Tuesday granted two companies licences to install fibre optics and provide general telecommunications services.

TRC Chief Commissioner Ghazi Jbour said that the TRC granted a licence to Al Nafath Arab Company to install fibre optic cables from Amman through Zarqa to the Iraqi border, linking up with the fibre line inside Iraq, according to a TRC statement.

Jbour said that the licences will enable the Kingdom to export telecommunication services to neighbouring countries and enhance its international role in data transfer via the Internet.
