Pakistan Telecommunication Company Ltd (PTCL) was also announced the winner of Best Fixed Operator award.

South Asian, Middle Eastern and North African (SAMENA) Telecommunication Council conferred these awards in its award ceremony held at Casablanca on 26-28 October 2010.

It has announced awards in different categories for top performers amongst its member countries.
