Dear Saligaonettekars, Talking to senior officials at the Saligao Telephone Exchange this morning we heard some important news:
There is ONLY ONE SLOT left for a Telephone Exchange to be alloted *Boradband* internet equipment in Goa. It is EITHER Saligao OR one other Exchange! And the choice will be made on the number of applications received from the two villages. If Saligao has more applications *our* exchange will get the equipment and we will have broadband and other related services in the village at affordable, subsidised rates, in a short while. This is an appeal to Saligaokars in the village to apply online at http://www.bsnl.co.in *at the earliest*. Those residing outside the village could write to their folks back home and ask them to *urgently* make the application. Applying is free and does not mean that one has to take the connection when it comes. It is only to indicate to BSNL decision makers in Panjim, how many potential Broadband users there are in Saligao. Applying has other advantages: - it ensures that you *will* get a Broadband connection because there are only a certain number of connections that will be planned for. Once the capacity is utilised - no more new connections! - besides Broadband, the telephone line you indicate for the purpose will also, in time, carry several other services from BSNL - like cable TV, video on demand, content based services, video multicasting, interactive gaming, audio and video conferencing, distance based learning, etc. So if you have an eye on the future of the Telecom and IT industries: *Register for Broadband in Saligao - NOW!* Solidarity, M&M. ------------------------------------------ Below is the original message that came in from BSNL: << Dear Customer, BSNL is happy to announce that shortly you can avail very high speed broadband service under brand name âDataOneâ.
