KUALA NERANG, March 29 — Fifty-five rural schools in Kedah have been installed with fibre optic ‘Point of Presence’ facilities which can expand broadband infrastructure coverage of the schools involved and the surrounding areas.
“This is important for us to reduce what is called a gap or what is called a digital gap. We don’t want a situation where those who live in urban areas get high-speed internet, but those who don’t live in urban areas are left far behind. He said about 40 per cent of the internet connection ports provided at all PoPs in the 55 schools have been subscribed by users and it is expected that more users will subscribe after knowing the facility.
“But with this PoP programme we provide so the cost is reduced for service providers and for users they can get faster broadband services,” he said.
