"The construction of a modern telecommunications infrastructure is a critical step toward the economic development of the region"
Citation given is: Monica Horten, A Magnet for Suppliers, FIN.TIMES, Oct 15, 1992 Section 3 Survey, at 8.
James Hatt, regional director of Cable and Wireless, stressed that Western businesses must be highly selective in doing business in Eastern Europe: "Every day three or four so-called opportunities cross my desk. It has got to be more than an opportunity to go in and merelly 'make a quick buck'. It must be one that allows us to expand as the economy stabilises and expands."
