Mr. BAREMA Edward Mudenge - The Gitarama CIC Partner

 

However, some of the Services above are yet to be introduced. The Local Telephone Company has failled to allocate lines for Public Telephone and Fax and the only organisations with capacity to utilise Specialized Software Application Development and Training have not yet seen the benefits of ICT.

 

Felix is the Manager for Gitarama Telecenter. Although he handles Internet Connectivity and Secretarial Services, he also delivers training in ordinary Microsoft Desktop Applications Training.

Technical matters are handled by Mr. Barema himself.

 

On the day the Gitarama Telecenteral opened, so much enthusiasm was exhibited by young men and women and Mr. Barema had to buy at least an extra wooden stool for each Pc and a bench to accommodate those waiting for a free PC. It is quite common for local professionals, teachers and students to request to pair to utilise 15 Min connection (Frw 100=15 USD$) to check on e-mail 60% of which is Yahoo Mail.
