The article reflects on the author's experiences and observations as former CEO of Tonga Cable Ltd, especially regarding the crucial role of digital connectivity in tourism. Highlighting the absence of free WiFi in cafés as a setback, the author contrasts this with past initiatives launched to enhance connectivity, namely significant price cuts on internet services and the introduction of free WiFi at key tourist entry points. Sadly, the stalling progress is attributed to high data costs and uncooperative service providers, thereby affecting both tourism and local business growth.
It's discouraging to witness a regression in digital connectivity while tourism grows, highlighting how essential it has become in shaping visitors' experiences.
The lack of free WiFi options at local cafés illustrates the ongoing challenges in providing necessary digital services for tourists and locals alike.
