Batelco Plant Protection Department held a similar workshop last year, which resulted in a significant increase in cooperation between contractors and Batelco, leading to reduction in the number of incidents. Encouraged by the favourable results of the previous workshop, Batelco is arranging for another one in November 2008. The aim is to raise the awareness of all concerned parties regarding the issue of safeguarding Batelco's state-of-the-art infrastructure. The time and venue of the workshop will be advised through personal invitations from Batelco.
Batelco's extensive copper network reaches premises all over the Kingdom and additionally fibre cables link exchanges and mobile cells, and connect Bahrain to the outside world. Any damage to this infrastructure may cause disruptions to Batelco's communications network and impact negatively on residential and business customers.
Batelco General Manager Government & Media Relations Ahmed Al Janahi, said:
"We strive to ensure full telecommunications service at all times. This advice from us is in line with The Ministry of Works and Housing's Code of Practice which included rules and regulations governing excavation works."
"It is paramount that contractors follow the advice from the Ministry to avoid negative impact on the country's economy and loss of services to customers due to service interruptions and cable damage caused by negligence," added Mr. Al Janahi.
