They really love that “prices are at a level comparable to international standards” line. Not long before they say that when houses are million dollars in random off places.

Well, the cheaper options exist more thoroughly now. Companies should be free to set their prices as long as meaningful competition is present, which I think it is now. It was very much a cartel before.

I pay 2500 for a phone monthly, and even if I wanted a ton of data I would only pay 5000 or so. I think it’s very reasonable, I can’t see how the prices can get lower than they already are.
