ABC News (Australia) published this video item, entitled “Telstra to buy Pacific arm of telecommunications giant Digicel | The World” – below is their description.
The Australian government will hand almost $2bn to Telstra to help it buy South Pacific telco operator Digicel. There have been fears in Canberra the business might be snapped up by China, and analysts say this is a clear play to make sure Beijing isn’t able to gain control of the network. Foreign affairs reporter Stephen Dziedzic tells The World the federal government has been driving the deal.
