There was plenty of recent discussion about Zong launch and what will it mean for mobile companies in Pakistan. Let’s start with the net increase to Zong’s subscribers in April 2008. According to recently released numbers by PTA, Zong added 1,004,298 subscribers in April. and finished up with 3.15M total. Pretty good but certainly they have a long way to go. By the way that report about 12M users for Zong in a month was obviously incorrect. Here are the total subscriber numbers (excluding Instaphone) at the end of April 2008:

31,935,624 Mobilink
17,539,457 Ufone
17,323,169 Telenor
14,760,593 Warid
3,146,763 Zong
