World Wi-Fi Day: Enhancing Digital Connectivity In Jamaica

Today is World WiFi Day and as we come together to recognize the importance of internet access in our increasingly digital world, it is important to address the issue of digital poverty. This day serves as a reminder that while many of us enjoy the benefits of seamless connectivity, there are still millions of people around the globe who lack access to reliable and affordable internet services.
