Polkomtel's CEO remains in his job, but for how long?

According to Puls Biznesu, Andrzej Szczepek, head of Polkomtel's supervisory board and deputy president of KGHM, proposed that a new president should be found via headhunters. Until recently the most likely candidate for the post was Maciej Srebro, former telecommunication minister in the AWS government. He already received preliminary permission to take the job from British Vodafone, which holds a 19.61% stake in Polkomtel, but his candidacy is not supported by some politicians from Law and Justice (PiS). According to Polkomtel's strategy for 2006-2008 the telecom will become the number one mobile operator in terms of value in the country by 2008. On Wednesday Danish TDC signed a deal with a group of investment funds which will buy its 19.6% stake in Polkomtel. (Puls Biznesu, p. 9) M.M.
