SINGTEL : Z74 0% is banking on a travel recovery, as well as easing competition in regional markets, to shore up its top line in the year ahead, the telco’s management has said.
“Notwithstanding the headwinds we’re seeing, we do see the operations from the core (business) coming back quite convincingly,” chief financial officer Arthur Lang told a briefing.
