Trusting technology to carry the message
Thanks to advances in information technology, we hardly write and post letters through the post office. Why waste your time and energy? Reason: The Internet is faster, but unreliable at times.
In The Gambia, recent development within the telecommunications sector has once again put the nation on a firm pedestal when viewed from the information technology prism. When business tycoon Muhammed Jah widely known in the area of Computers and Internet Service Providers, launched his GSM company recently, it highlighted two significant developments: the first Gambian owned GSM Company. And secondly, the company has come with it, one of the latest and perhaps one of the most sophiscated ICT products that have not been use by clients here. It goes to show how fast telecommunication is growing a country of 1.6million people, with a percapita income of close to five hundred dollars.
Another area that has seen massive investment is the financial sector, the latest bank to be inaugurated in The Gambia brings to thirteen the number of banks operating in the country. So within fifteen years, 13 banks. And at a time the Gambian President His Excellency Sheikh Professor Dr. Alh. Yahya Jammeh is urging Gambians to unite and work harder for the betterment of the country; another product is being promoted by Trust Bank which if it start may likely make a lot of people happy.
It’s called email and text alert from Trust Bank, this system tells you about the transactions involving you and your accounts. The message will pop up informing you, that your salary has been credited in your account, so and so has paid money into your account. It has been happening to a lot of people to go the bank, only to be told that their salaries have not been credited into their accounts.
Trust Bank wants to let the customers to trust technology to carry the message, while you concentrate on other things.
