SLRC Society Partners with Mobitel for reliable communication solutions
The National Mobile Service Provider, Mobitel, exchanged a Memorandum of Understanding ( MoU) with the Sri Lanka Red Cross Society ( SLRCS) recently at Trace Expert City. As per the terms of the MoU, Mobitel will henceforth be the Communication Partner for the SLRCS. Having the SLRCS sign on for Mobitel’s communication expertise reflects the perception of reliability of the mobile service provider for critical services that the SLRCS provides to the people of Sri Lanka. In the current climate where flood and landslide warnings are being issued, having a reliable communication partner is crucial for a humanitarian body. This MoU marks yet another accomplishment for Mobitel.
As part of the MoU, Mobitel will provide the SLRCS with a mobile donation platform ( subscription based/ on demand) and assist SLRCS Disaster Response Teams to better serve disaster- affected areas. It will implement special communication programs and services in SLRCS housing and community building projects and extend latest technology assistance for SLRCS Disaster Management Operation rooms and command centers. SLRCS is engaged in critical functions and Mobitel’s expertise in latest technology is well positioned to cater to its mission critical requirements. As the National Mobile Service Provider, Mobitel’s technology provides the ideal bridge for the SLRCS to connect with disaster victims to provide relief and rescue in times of floods.
