This is hilarious. They've just released the World results for internet speed tests for upload/download megabits per second.
For download speeds, Mauritius came 169th out of 180 countries with a download speed of 0.54mb/s. As a comparison, the UK is 7.84mb/s.
For upload, the story gets worse, as Mauritius has a speed of 0.15 mb/s which ranks it 174th out of 180 countries.
Ethiopia and Burkino Faso are ranked well above Mauritius!!!!!
On that basis, would someone mind telling me how the Mauritian government can project the island to someone as a realistic proposition for establishing a business?
Whilst I'm on this tip, the goverment website must surely be one of the worst I've ever come across: broken links and totally user unfriendly.
The island needs more than beautiful beaches if it's going to make it in the 21st Century.
