Mobitel to provide total mobile solutions to SLAF

Mobitel, the national mobile service provider will provide total mobile solutions with extensive coverage to the Sri Lanka Air Force, (SLAF) as part of its long-term national endeavor.

Air Marshal Roshan Goonetileke, Commander of the Sri Lanka Air Force speaking on the agreement with Mobitel said, "This is a very extensive package which has not been equalled by any other company.

As servicemen, this type of package is a necessity, as it will help us to spend very little, while having more airtime over the telephone. We have received additional lines as well, which will service 50% of the Sri Lanka Air Force's strength.

We are extremely grateful to a renowned company such as Mobitel for coming forward and supporting a national security provider."

The Sri Lanka Air Force has been a valued customer with the company since 2004 and through this agreement they have in essence tripled their volume of business with Mobitel.

CEO of Sri Lanka Telecom Mobitel Suren J Amarasekera said; "We consider it a great honour to provide extensive services to the Sri Lanka Air Force. As a valued customer of Mobitel, we are providing them with a cost effective yet compelling service proposition.

We did not hesitate to tailor make the solution that we are offering to fit their requirements.

Our growth in coverage has enabled more servicemen to enjoy the service we provide and I am most grateful to the Air Marshal and his Air Force team for having tripled the number of connections they previously had with us."

Air Commodore A. M. B. Amunugama, Director Welfare, Sri Lanka Air Force was also present.
