Providing the most modern communication and digital services is one of Dhiraagu’s key goals.

With gigabit speed, several inhabited islands in the Maldives will receive internet speeds up to 1 Gbps.
These include Male’ City, Addu City, Fuvahmulah City, Haa Dhaalu Kulhudhuffushi, Baa Eydhafushi, Laamu Gan, Laamu Fonadhoo and Alif Dhaalu Dhan’gethi.
Dhiraagu stated that in a changing world, 1 Gbps is a way to achieve a digital future.
Compared to the previous fastest speed of 100 Mbps, gigabit speed is 10 times faster.
