Equatorial<br />

Guinea<br />

tropospheric scatter to Sudan; microwave radio relay to Israel; a participant in<br />

Medarabtel<br />

general assessment: poor system with adequate government services<br />

domestic: NA<br />

international: country code - 240; international communications from Bata and<br />

Malabo to African and European countries; satellite earth station - 1 Intelsat (Indian<br />

Ocean)<br />

Eritrea general assessment: inadequate<br />

domestic: inadequate; most telephones are in Asmara; government is seeking<br />

international tenders to improve the system<br />

international: country code - 291; note - international connections exist<br />
