Restructuring of telecommunications for development:
Evolution, Policies and Trends

PARTNERS IN DEVELOPMENT: TELECOMMUNICATIONS - THE FIRST LINK	
A message from the Telecommunication Advisory Board addressed to policy makers and planners and submitted to the World Telecommunication Development Conference (Buenos-Aires, March 1994) to foster the dialogue with all development partners.
The message deals with outstanding issues where BDT has a role to play, such as the importance of telecommunications for social, cultural and economic progress, the evolution of the regulatory function, creation of an attractive investment climate, partnership with the private sector, universal access to basic telecommunication services, rural telecommunication development and the corresponding technology challenges and opportunities. Brief case studies conclude the report: Making a rural network profitable (Bolivia), computer-based network planning (Indonesia), liberalizing the telecom market (Malta), and carrying out PTT- wide organizational reform (Ukraine).	
	
RESTRUCTURING OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS FOR DEVELOPMENT: EVOLUTION, POLICIES AND TRENDS	
This report summarizes and analyzes the current trends in structural reforms and traces the process of transforming monolithic into multiple network and service configurations with growing participation of the private sector. Policy formulation, the institutional and regulatory evolution as well as market- and business-oriented investment and finance strategies are reviewed for a broad cross-section of countries. Case studies of Senegal and Pakistan highlight critical issues of structural reform. The annexes contain the results of ITU restructuring conferences with policy makers, financial institutions and development agencies in Washington D.C. 1991, Tunis 1992, and Moscow 1993.
