Why is Internet not free?
People often ask me why Dhiraagu cannot offer free Internet. They also tell me that free Internet is available in other countries but not in Maldives. This got me thinking, how is that possible? Then I began to do some research. Here is what I learnt.
Children using Internet
Free Internet is available in some countries. But, it is only available in confined public areas or places like, schools, universities airports etc. OK, it maybe limited, but it is there, right? Yes, but the point to remember is, it is not the service provider who is providing these services. The free Internet is almost all of the time provided by the management of the facility, eg. school board, airports management. I think the public places in Male’ can follow this trend and start providing free Internet for their users. Dhiraagu can help them get going, we will be happy to assist.
It will be very useful for the tourists arriving in to Maldives. They’ll be frustrated to pay for internet to just to check email .. abt just 10mins…
