Iranian government is enhancing Internet connectivity and telecom services in rural areas to offer villagers a significant change in lifestyle and encourage their stay in remote areas.
Nearly 600 villages in the southern province of Fars have recently been equipped with high-speed Internet services as part of President Hassan Rouhani’s agenda.
To deliver on previous promises, ICT Minister Mohammad Javad Azari-Jahromi visited Fars Province on July 11 to take stock of mobile phone and Internet coverage in the region, reported the ministry’s website.
On his two-day trip to the sunny southwestern province, Azari-Jahromi seemed satisfied with the progress made in the ICT sector, as nearly 600 villages can now access third and fourth generation of broadband cellular network technology.
