Mobile teledensity has also increased substantially from 14% in

March 2001 to 131% in March 2010.

Teledensity for fixed telephony has declined from 8.4% to 7.6% over the same
period due largely to the fact that estimated population increases from
2001 to 2010 are higher than the increase in number of subscriptions.
