By the end of 2027, all regional centers of Yakutia in the Arctic will be connected to the high-speed Internet, said Anatoly Semyonov, Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Republic of Yakutia.
According to him, a big breakthrough has been made in Yakutia within five years, and today 386 settlements are connected to the fiber-optic communication line.
"No other subject of the Russian Federation can boast of such a pace. (...) We see how with the advent of the fast Internet the population begins to actively use general services, government services, messengers, and social networks. People can receive medical services, study and work remotely," Semyonov said.
The "Synergy of the Arctic" project is being implemented by the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media on behalf of the President of the Russian Federation, ysia.ru reports.
