Can't even read what he's written...

Alan, your article is quoted at the top of this post. Just in case you
can't spot it, I'll paste it again: "Though by world standards
Australia's mobile telephone services are unreasonably expensive,"

Note the words "unreasonably expensive" and the common knowledge that
Telstra leads the way in expensive mobile phone service charges in the
Australian market.
