Message from the CEO: A Year in Review
2011 has been a year of profound growth for Pactel International. The booming resource sector in PNG allowed us to capitalise on our strengths in this market by establishing a new hub in Port Moresby, providing connectivity to the most remote provinces of New Guinea. With the advent of bandwidth demanding-applications and bandwidth costs remaining high, 2011 was the year where WAN optimisation technologies became a critical factor in satellite communications. Pactel International saw this as an opportunity to add more value for our customers by embedding various bandwidth-efficiency technologies into our service offerings.
