Lindeners can reach more people on their mobile phones now that new cellular services provider Digicel has constructed three state-of-the-art base stations in the mining town.
In a press release on Sunday, the company said that as part of its extensive plan to build a brand new state-of-the-art network for Guyana, three base stations have been constructed around Linden covering Amelia’s Ward, Wismar and downtown Linden. The stations are to ensure that Digicel customers are receiving the best mobile service available to them.
The company’s release said that prior to its arrival in Guyana only one base station provided mobile coverage to Linden.
Tim Bahrani, Digicel Guyana Chief Executive Officer, said that the company’s ambitious rollout of a brand new state-of-the-art network, providing superior quality of mobile coverage to the people of Guyana is proof of the changes being introduced since Digicel acquired Celstar last November.
According to the release, today people from Wakenaam Island to Charity can experience Digicel’s superior network quality just prior to its launch in Guyana.
Digicel will be launching its service tomorrow with a concert dubbed ‘experience’. Grammy Award nominated singer, Akon is slated to perform at the grand event billed for the National Park. Also listed to perform are the reggae group from Jamaica, T.O.K and local artistes, Adrian Dutchin, Jomo, Rajesh Dubraj and Malo.
