FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER TWO VILLAGES IN THE SYUNIK MARZ GET ACCESS TO A MOBILE TELEPHONY AND INTERNET SERVICE WITH ORANGE
Today Orange announced the launch of its services in two villages
of the Syunik region: Geghanush and Gomaran, which are getting
access to mobile technologies for the first time ever. Though
the telecommunication sector is developed in Armenia and modern
technologies are available to the inhabitants of most of the cities and
villages, there are still a few villages which have no communication
provided by any of the telecom operators yet. Geghanush and Gomaran
having respectively 280 and 76 inhabitants, will have access starting
from today not only to mobile voice services, but also to high-speed
mobile internet thanks to Orange.
Francis Gelibter, Orange Armenia CEO, said: "I am happy today to be
here and to announce the launch of these two mobile base stations that
will ensure fast connection not only inside these villages but as well
with the rest of the world. Mobile telephony and internet definitely
bring changes to the daily life of people: being more connected, more
informed, closer to people who are far. Being connected bridges the
gap between people living in the capital and people living in small
villages. Orange is proud to be not only the operator which delivers
the best quality in towns but as well the one which creates these new
experiences for people living in villages like Geghanush and Gomaran
which do not have a connection provided by any other operator".
As a reminder, after less than 4 years of launching its operations,
Orange services are now available to more than 95% of the Armenian
population. In Yerevan, Gumri, Vanadzor and Etchmiadzine Orange
offers up to 42Mbps capacity network, and up to 21Mbps in the rest
of the country.
Orange policy is to continue expanding its operations in villages
taking care of quality and performance, including villages not yet
covered by any operator, such as Ditsmayr and Bnunis in Syunik region
and Antaramut or Kachachut in Lori region which will be all covered
by the beginning of 2014.
