PanARMENIAN.Net - A modern computer center, furnished with broadband
internet, opened in Tavush village of Tavush province of Armenia,
through joint efforts of Orange Armenia, Shen NGO and the local
community.
The newly opened computer center of the village having 1800 inhabitants
is equipped with 6 computers, printer/scanner, Orange Flybox router
and comfortable furniture, which will enable the inhabitants not only
to be connected to the world, but also to participate in computer
courses. For implementation of this project, Orange has allotted a
total of AMD 2 mln 350 thous.
As Arthur Hovhannisyan, the head of Tavush village administration,
said, only 10% of the families of the village had computers and
internet access at home, thus, the computer center would be a real
"public window" to internet.
"We have built a large 3G+ network and made broadband internet
accessible even to the borderline settlements. Providing access to
the inhabitants of remote settlements to the world of state-of-art
technologies, we make their life easier, the distance between their
friends and relatives shorter and also enable them in many respects
to enjoy the same benefits as the inhabitants of Yerevan," commented
Orange Armenia CEO Bruno Duthoit.
