#2  Emirati prompted move ? For spectrum allocation. The 'information' passed on by the Pak ISI, and enforcement undertaken by turbans. Clean business.

#1  Salaam Telecom is owned by the Afghan Govt.

back in the early days of cell phones when the Taliban ruled, they had a partnership with Afghan Wireless. They are still a provider of cell service in Afghanistan. They are among the largest employers in the country and work with the current govt on many joint projects.
