Government will continue to provide a conducive environment for ICT sector players to flourish and ensure the provision of high quality ICT services that are modern, accessible and affordable to Consumers.
ICTs are a catalyst for national socio-economic transformation. The attainment of Vision 2030 as expounded by President @edmnangagwa will require harnessing the potential of ICTs for sustainable development. Public and Private sector players have a key role to play in this regard
@Betterzim1@KMutisi@Potraz_zw @Min_ICTCS_ZW Most resort places are commercially viable and already have MNO running 4G basestations the rural areas are the ones we are focusing with USF funds
@KMutisi@IshmaelChiwayu@dennis_magaya They are not just "Internet cafes", I have responded to this on the convo, however they are also used as courier services centres and future e_gvt centres for next upcoming programs to say the least
Today we empowered the Manoti community, some 100km away from Gokwe, they can now find a place to use Internet facility and get training while we also unveiled a shared basestation for the area.
@julsmag If you live in the rural areas, some 100km away from your major growth point which takes 3hrs drives due to bad roads and you suddenly have Internet access a stone throw away plus 3G coverage that move is great in the tech sphere.
@henza108 This is regrettable, we need world class service delivery @Min_ICTCS_ZW @Potraz_zw@Zimposts @courierconect did you get an explanation on why this happened?
@dennis_magaya@IshmaelChiwayu They are constructed under the Zimpost premises and the onus is on them, after USF, Mnos and Potraz make the final coal contribution..
