Haizzz...what should I say, people really so uneducated and uncivilized to the extend they went to vandalised public services and belongings. What do they get? Personal satisfaction? It's time to put them to jail I say...shame on them...
THE exact location of the WiFi hotspots will no longer be revealed publicly as there have been cases of vandalism where people have cut off the supply.
Jeff Ooi, the chairman of the state-appointed special task force to handle telecommunications infrastructure issues, said this was rampant especially in George Town, but did not provide figures.
One of the ways to overcome the problem, he said, was to fix WiFi hotspots at 24-hour restaurants so that restaurant owners could keep a watch over them.
“We will also not give details on the locations to avoid further sabotage and vandalism,” he said but did not provide the number of cases.
Speaking at a press conference to update the media on theWireless@Penang project and telecommunications infrastructure in Komtar yesterday, he however said that “as at end-December, there were 355 hotspots and we hope to reach the target of 750 hotspots by end of the year”.Let's hope the government can do more, so that more and more people can enjoy the free internet service !
