Sierra Leone's National Telecommunications Commission (NATCOM) announced Friday that it plans to meet with sector players more regularly to discuss issues pertinent to the development and effective regulation of the country's telecom industry.

NATCOM officials made the decision at their first interactive meeting with GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) operators and ISPs (Internet service providers) on July 3.

One ISP representative who spoke to IDG News Service under condition of anonymity, however, expressed displeasure with the meeting. Most participants were disgruntled after the meeting, as they began to realize that the regulatory body personnel is inexperienced in the telecom sector, he said.
