Kazakh telco Transtelecom JSC says it has signed a partnership agreement with national postal operator QazPost to expand telecoms services to rural areas in Kazakhstan’s Kyzylorda region.

Under the framework agreement announced on Tuesday, Transtelecom and QazPost aim to connect rural settlements and develop digital infrastructure of Kyzylorda, which sits in the southwest on the Kazakhstan-Uzbekistan border.

The agreement calls for QazPost employees to help residents in Kyzylorda connect to Transtelecom services.

Kanat Syrlybayev, MD of Transtelecom’s Kyzylorda branch, said the partnership will get people connected faster and make the Internet more accessible in remote areas, reducing the gap in telecoms services acces access between cities and the countryside.

"It is important for us that residents of rural settlements have the same access to communication as in cities,” Syrlybayev said in a statement. “Partnership with QazPost allows us to bring our services faster to people where it is really needed.”
