Sri Lanka Telecom revolutionizes country’s connected mobility services and taxi services industries
Sri Lanka Telecom PLC (SLT) has reportedly revolutionized the country’s connected mobility services and traditional taxi services industries through its Digital services subsidiary company, SLT Digital Info Services (Pvt) Ltd (SLTDS).
Accordingly, SLTDS is set to offer ride-sharing services in Sri Lanka under the brand name of “SLT muve.”
SLTDS has recently officially announced its innovative transport service.
The smart transportation platform “SLT muve” was launched in Sri Lanka after a successful months-long trial around the city of Colombo and the Western Province.
The “SLT muve” app is reportedly aimed at providing its driver partners with a mutually beneficial partnership that is unparalleled to any other similar service existing in the country; while also delivering an experience that is economical, safe and reliable to passengers.
This initiative aims to rectify issues in the industry around fairness, reliability, quality and value for money.
“SLT muve” is to overcome these challenges by offering a robust app with 24-hour support center for riders and drivers, stronger privacy protocols, driver training, clean and safe vehicles, and the ability for riders to share their transport itinerary with friends or family.
“SLT muve” has also pledged to put fairness at the heart of its decision-making and continue to adopt and encourage sharing economy initiatives.
OSL take:
Sri Lanka Telecom has taken many initiatives aimed at developing the country’s digital infrastructure. The company has already launched the development of smart cities in the country. The government of Sri Lanka has also introduced many incentives and programmes to develop the country’s digital infrastructure and introduce the latest in the field of ICT to the country. Therefore, foreign businesses/investors could explore business/investment opportunities in Sri Lanka’s ICT and digital infrastructure sectors.
