Became one of the biggest if not biggest money making private company in NZ. Tills you how will governments can run companys. :) Not exactly Trev. Telecom is very much a public company - not private. Initially it did very well - it used to take 6 weeks to get a new phone line, that became 3 days, and now almost instant. Still, Telecom has been a sharemarket dog. $8/share in 2000 but today - $2.50. Imagine the screams if the public still owned it. |

| 1276560 | 2012-05-22 22:22:00 | Has anybody got any *hard* figures on the amount of money these state assets make the country in terms of raw profit each year? Were those assets earning you big money? I'm still interested to know just HOW MUCH money these "assets" are supposedly making us, but I'm yet to see any hard evidence. |

The biggest improvement in work order processing just happened to coincide with the arrival of computers in the office. Files didn't have to be physically moved around or get lost. Nothing to do with privatisation. |

Also most of the network had just been upgraded so initially they didn't need to make any major investment in it. |
