sector will include call centers, sales and marketing. We will be making
announcements for these positions shortly. The remaining 1000 employees
will be Telenor Myanmar’s in-house staff. They will work directly for
Telenor whereas the other 2000 employees will be employed by partner
companies. We will invite applications for Information and Technology
specialists and staff for other sectors from October to December”, said

staff as well as interested individuals who are not employ by Telenor”,
