One Sim, Two Numbers for One Country, Two Systems


This is a great idea from a phone company in Macau. They are offering one sim card with two phone numbers (A Hong Kong and a Macau number). I don't know if it is a fair tariff but the idea is good as it would save carrying two phones or doing the sim card change every time you cross the border.

Hong Kong and Macau used to be two separate countries before they became Special Administrative Regions of China, but they still have their own country codes.

I hope that the phone companies in Europe introduce something like this. With the open borders with the EU people have become so much more mobile between countries but you are charged exorbitant rates when you leave the country your phone plan is from.
