Orange Romania will participate in the bid for the WIMAX license, as the company is interested in expanding in this field, said France Telecom president Didier Lombard in a press conference on Thursday.

At the end of February 2008, the Romanian government approved an emergency ordinance establishing the new radio spectrum organizing norms, for the 3600 – 3800 MHz bandwidth.

IT&C minister Karoly Borbely recently declared that two WiMAX licenses will be available this year.
