stealth launchThis has been a very stealty launch.

Perhaps I’m blind but I havn’t seen any advertising or Warid offices open up in the clifton area. How does a regular end-consumer get a Warid connection? What packages are they offering?

Rumour 1: I have heard though that they are targeting companies instead of end-consumers.
Rumour 2:Bank Alfalah employees got a Warid connection because the 2 companies have some sort of common parent company.

The Bangladesh Journal The Bangladesh Journal

“Abu Dhabi group which comprise of some ruling family members of Abu Dhabi along with prominent businessmen from the UAE has strategically decided to invest in the Financial sector and Telecom Sector through its majority owned companies namely Bank Alfalah Ltd and Warid Telecom.”

They are owned by the same party I understand. Apart from that one officer being named its sales exec, i see no other reason to worry about Warid. In particular this shows the expanding interest of Arab families in Pakistan, which only paves way for more international business eye on the Pakistani economy.
