With the landing of four submarine cables in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) this year, the country could see lower internet prices and faster speeds.
Emirati residents have long complained that internet speeds in the Middle Eastern country fall short of expectations. Many also believe that internet prices are too high. But according to the Managing Director of Etisalat submarine unit E-Marine, the company laying the cables, this technology could bring quicker mobile internet speeds to the UAE, incentivising its lead operators to revise prices.
