Request to Lift Ban on WhatsApp Audio/Video calls in UAE



UAE Updates: A prominent Emirati businessman, Mr. Khalaf Ahmad Al Habtoor, founding chairman of Al Habtoor Group has called on UAE authorities to lift the ban on voice and video calls on WhatsApp.

He posted a video on social media on Sunday, highlighting his plea to allow UAE residents to have access to voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) functions through the messaging app.

About AL HABTOOR:
Al Habtoor Group is a major conglomerate in the UAE which first started out as a small engineering company back in the 1970s. It now has interests in the hospitality, automotive, real estate, education and publishing sectors.

Mr. Khalaf Ahmad Message:
In a message posted on Twitter, the entrepreneur said it’s about time the country’s telecom carriers lift the “ban” imposed on VoIP functions of platforms such as WhatsApp.


He pointed out that while people around the world have free access to the app’s video and voice calls, residents in the UAE aren’t allowed to do so.

“All the telecom companies are locking it. They are blocking it and not allowing it,” the businessman said in the video.

“We aim to be number one in everything… Why are we [behind] as far as communications is concerned,” he added.

“In a country like UAE, where we aim to always be pioneers in all we do, WhatsApp call should not be taken when it is accessible everywhere else in the world,” he also said on Twitter.

“I urge mobile carriers in the UAE to lift the ban, a service free to use in the top nations of the world.”

Many of UAE Expats are earning low salary due to which they cannot use extra paid apps (VoIP-based apps Botim and C’Me offered by Etisalat and du)
