According to him, du's accumulative investment in the UAE is estimated at AED20 billion since it was founded ten years ago.

The Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company, du, is investing nearly AED2 billion a year on network and infrastructure developments and upgrades, Sultan said during the interview with WAM.
