World Telecommunication Day

Technologies leading the way to sustainable development

In a message to mark this year's World Telecommunication Day Monday May17, the deputy chief executive officer of Cable & Wireless Seychelles, Cyril Bonnelame says the company is proud to be part of a global communications company that is increasingly driven by information and communication technologies.

The theme for this year’s World Telecommunication Day is ITCs (Information and Communication Technologies): Leading the way to sustainable development.

"It is these technologies that are helping to reduce global problems, such as poverty and hunger, by reaching out to the poorest and most isolated areas of the world and help them join the mainstream of national and even global markets," Mr Bonnelame says.

Cable & Wireless Seychelles, he says "has been leading the way in ensuring social and economic development in Seychelles through the provision of reliable communications, backed by the skills and knowledge of our greatest asset – our employees."

"Today, the people of Seychelles have access to information technology that is not only up-to-date with modern developments, but in many instances, exceeds that of larger markets in other countries – particularly in the region," he adds

In this new era, we will continue to lead the way in further developing communications in Seychelles in order to improve the economic, social and cultural well being of our people, Mr Bonnelame notes.

Thanking the company's loyal customers for their support, Mr Bonnelame says he looks forward to their continued trust in Cable & Wireless (Sey).
