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.
