PEOPLE FAILED TO VOTE EVEN THE FIRST SECONDS
Today the final of the 51st international contest Eurovision 2006 will
take place in Athens. Armenia, that takes part in this contest for the
first time, must take an active part in voting as other participating
countries do. However, it is not excluded that we will see the same
situation this night as two days ago. Mobile operators ArmenTel and
VivaCell could not provide quality connection as a result of which
numerous calls from Armenia were not registered.
ArmenTel and Vivacell assure that sms messages sent during the first 3
minutes have reached their addressee. However, that is not quite
so. Reports on sent messages even for the first few minutes came a day
after the semi-finale at 19:30 in the evening. (What an extraordinary
efficiency!). They read as follows, `Unfortunately, voting is
over. Thank you for your participation.’ The question is for what
participation.
Public TV of Armenia has required mobile operators in Armenia to
ensure quality connection during the voting of Eurovision 2006
final. /Panorama.am/
