REGULATORY CHANGES IN COLOMBIA


REGULATORY CHANGES IN COLOMBIA

New York and Stockholm - December 13, 2007 - Millicom International Cellular
S.A. (Nasdaq Stock Market: MICC and Stockholmsbörsen: MIC), the global
telecommunications company, today commented on the initiatives announced by the
Colombian Regulator last week. The interconnect rate has been reduced with
immediate effect from approximately US 12 cents to 6 cents and, as part of the
new regulations, the interconnection between operators will continue to be
symmetric but charged on a per second basis.

These changes will allow Tigo to improve the affordability of its services over
time and the resulting price elasticity will be an important driver for future
revenue growth. However, in the short term Tigo will see a negative effect on
revenues and margins in Colombia as Tigo, the smallest of the three mobile
operators, currently generates substantially more incoming than outgoing calls
interconnecting with other operators. In the fourth quarter the impact will be
limited but in 2008 revenue and margin in Colombia will be affected, although
our target to achieve the Millicom Group average EBITDA margins in Colombia over
time still remains unchanged.

Marc Beuls, CEO of Millicom commented, "These changes in the regulatory
environment in Colombia will allow Tigo to implement all 3 A's of its business
model going forward, but we have to accept a short term impact on revenues and
margins in Colombia as the price worth paying to achieve these longer term
objectives in a market with great potential."
