Africa Looks to Voice Over Wi-Fi

By Nancy Gohring

The technologies are also enabling competition in many countries where there may be just one telecom operator. Overall it appears that governments in Africa are trying to promote the use of voice over IP and Wi-Fi as tools that can lead to greater development in the region.
