Having effortlessly transitioned into acting, Fouzia's debut film swiftly captured global acclaim, earning accolades at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival
FNC member Aisha Al Yateem raised a question to representatives of the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) and telecom companies Etisalat and du about the future of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) calls.
Representatives from Etisalat and du, however, did not attend the meeting and sent through their apologies.
TRA representatives told the members that they were not the authority responsible for VoIP apps and therefore not the authorised party to answer the question.
The TRA, in coordination with the UAE telecom operators, had in March announced the availability of several applications for free as school learning went online and residents worked from home.
Emiratisation at telecom firms
During the meeting, the FNC Committee on Technical Affairs, Energy and Mineral Resources had presented to the council a report that showed figures regarding Emiratis and expatriates at Etisalat and du from 2017 to 2019. The report suggested that the companies had 5,338 employees, of which 1,787 were Emiratis.
The report showed that the number of expat employees at the firms was double that of Emiratis.
