Bahrain's mobile users travelling to Tunisia will now be able to make and receive calls when they are there, thanks to a deal between Batelco and Orascom Telecom Tunisie S.A. (Tunisiana). Roaming facilities between Bahrain and Tunisia began operating last month following the signing of a commercial agreement between Batelco and the Tunisian operator. Senior Manager for Mobile Services at Batelco, Hamza Ali, said: "The signing of this agreement follows Batelco's recent announcement that new international roaming services have begun operating in several more countries including Gabon, Japan and Moldova. "Our aim is to extend the number and scope of international roaming connections for Batelco mobile customers as far as possible and these countries are all key additions to the network." Batelco now has commercial roaming agreements with 101 countries and 245 operators.
