"We are here today to celebrate and celebrate the excellence and hard work that every Malitel employee provides every day to provide all our customers with the best service. This is the official launch of 4G on the Malitel network "said the CEO. Biddine to situate the event in its true context.
Before getting to the heart of the matter, Mr. Biddine felt it necessary to recall some important points in the history of his society. To this end, he emphasized with a strong feature, the creation of Sotelma in 1984, its privatization in 2009 and the acquisition of 51% of the capital by the '' Maroc Telecom Group '' and the launch of 3G Malitel in 2012. "A new date comes today to crown this already rich list. The date of Tuesday November 27, 2018 will now be the date Malitel launched its 4G, "he said.

4G, what is it?
The second highlight of this ceremony was the presentation of the technical characteristics of the 4G network in general and the specificity and advantage of that of Malitel.
During about thirty minutes, the marketing manager of Sotelma-Malitel, Moustapha El Outti, built the public by its presentation.
According to him, 4G is none other than 4th generation of standards for mobile telephony, making it possible to use very high speed. To make this language digestible to the public (practically composed of laymen of this domain), he took care to explain largely the evolution of this concept of the 1era generation passing respectively by the 2th and the 3th until this 4th generation. However, he did not fail to point out that some developed countries are in the process of experimenting with the 5thgeneration.
To put the cursor on the distinctive features of 4G Malitel, he has insisted much between, among other things, its size coverage (it covers several regions of Mali), the need not replace its 3G. "The activation of 4G on new devices compatible with 4G is done automatically," he said, while pointing out that this 4G Malitel can reach up to 76.5 Gbps. After this theoretical presentation, the marketing manager of Malitel, has enjoyed the public spots and videos on the 4G Malitel.
Minister Toure announces the decrease of the cost of communication in Mali since 2019!
Before the symbolic lifting of the curtain on the 4G logo of Malitel, the honor was given to the Minister of Digital Economy and Communication to deliver his message.
As a true professional, Minister Touré has no moment in his intervention turned to bias. "Since 1999, the Government of the Republic of Mali has undertaken enormous reforms to make the telecommunications sector more profitable, more equitable and more attractive," he said, while emphasizing that the government has insisted on including dimension of quality in the specifications for 4G.

The granting of this 4G, he says, significantly influences this landscape of the telecommunications sector to achieve the objectives of profitability, quality, reliability on one hand, and on the other hand to make the cost affordable. services offered to consumers.
Moreover, the opportunity was rightly taken by Minister Touré to make pertinent remarks. It is about the high cost of the phone and the quality of the service. "The first specifications that were signed by economic operators did not require broadband. In the hands of the operators, the state is assuming, "he declared.
To make the necessary corrections, he will say that the government has decided through his department to introduce the notions of the territorial coverage of the country and the quality of service. "It is the will of the President of the Republic and his Prime Minister to make the reduction of the digital divide a reality in Mali" he said. To answer those who find that Mali is the only more expensive in mobile telephony, he will say that the year 2019 will be marked by the quality of services and a decrease in the cost of telephone communication.
