Himalayan kingdom goes mobile
The mountainous Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan is getting to grips with its first mobile phone network, according to the BBC. "Until now Bhutanese people wanting a taste of mobility have had to rely on bulky and inelegant cordless phones connected to their landlines. For business people the mobile is a revelation. Bhutan is a country where technology plays second fiddle to nature. Change happens at a glacial rate, but now at least it can proudly claim a small stake in the communications revolution." |
