Antigua St John's - Daryl Jackson has been appointed telecommunications consultant in the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting, Telecommunications, Science & Technology.
Jackson, who was once COO at Cable & Wireless’ Eastern Caribbean operations, and who also holds a Master of Science Degree in Sustainable Energy Systems, will assist the Telecommunications Division in ensuring a successful transition from a monopolistic international direct dial regime to an open and competitive one.
Minister with responsibility for Information, Broadcasting, Telecommunications, Science & Technology Dr Edmond Mansoor said “with the impending conclusion of LIME’s monopoly on international direct dial calls, it is very important that an effective and competitive marketplace is ensured. Safeguarding customer interests and fostering the long-term development of the telecommunications sector is also very important.

But, really now, the current situation is horrible. With this goal of introducing 'true' competition, I can only say ... show me soon.

As a business person, my number is on my letterhead, on my business cards and in my signature which is affixed to the many e-mails that I have sent out. If I am unhappy with the level of service of my current carrier, my only option is to change my number and go with another carrier.
The telecomm companies are content with this arrangement because they can basically hold us hostage, and we have no option but to grin and bear it.
