The Sri Lanka State Trading (General) Corporation (STC) in collaboration with Mobitel launched the Senehase Upahara package yesterday.

All Upahara subscribers and those who wish to obtain the Senehase Upahara package are entitled to five supplementary Senehase Upahara connections and a special priced internet package.

The latest offer will enable members within the Senehase Upahara group to enjoy low call rates and high speed Mobitel internet connection.

Sri Lanka Telecom Mobitel Chairperson, Leisha De Silva Chandrasena said together with STC, Mobitel will enhance the benefits to recognize their support. In keeping with President Mahinda Rajapakse declaring Year 2009 as the National Year of ICT and English, Mobitel will encourage them to become e-citizens.

“We have a customer base of over 550,000 at present and we hope that it will increase further with the latest features added to the Senehase Upahara package”, she said.

Minister of Trade, Marketing Development, Co-operatives and Consumer Services, Bandula Gunawardana said STC and Mobitel as national bodies have taken steps to improve the package to offer benefits to the state sector, pensioners and the clergy.

With the introduction of this package we created competency among the other mobile service providers which also benefited the country’s economy.
