Dhiraagu is pleased to announce that today it had signed a contract with Alcatel of France to expand DhiMobile service, as part of a project designed to extend coverage to an additional 35 islands in 6 Atolls.

Under the Rf 65 million project, DhiMobile coverage will be extended to selected islands in Haa Alif, Haa Dhaal, Shaviyani, Noonu, Raa and to Kaafu Kaashidhoo. The project also includes a significant upgrade to the network capacity on Male' to ensure a high quality of service is maintained with the rapidly increasing number of DhiMobile customers.

DhiMobile service is now available in 36 inhabited islands covering 40% of the Maldives population and all 88 resorts. This will increase to 71 inhabited islands and 54% of the population, upon the completion of this project.

Dhiraagu CEO, Keith Wilson said, "Extending mobile coverage outside Male' is complex and costly but I am confident this will make a big difference in the lives of many people in the Atolls and contribute significantly to the economic and social development of the country."
