(MENAFN) The Chief Executive Officer at Kuwait Telecom Company (Viva), the country?s third and newest telecom firm, said that the company is looking to list on the local stock exchange, Reuters reported.
CEO Najib Al-Awadhi said that the company was working on required procedures to get it listed on Kuwait Stock Exchange. The country’s third mobile operator launched operations in December 2008.
