Telkom, the state-owned telecommunications company, has recently declared and completed a $357 million sale of its cell phone towers. 6200 mobile towers make up Telkom's vast portfolio of communication infrastructure, which is managed and operated by Swiftnet, owned by Telkom. It appears from observation that mobile providers are increasingly selling off their cell phone towers, and Telkom is not the only one doing this.
