Public concern sites from TelesoftBD

The travel related web location, sited at www.travel.telesoftbd.com, contains up-to-date data on various travel items. The site is divided in several sub-headings such as, 'international flights', 'domestic flights', 'bus, train, launch schedule', 'railway', etc. which provides any browser with the latest information on arrivals and departures. Contact numbers are also provided for interested parties seeking reservation of seats. There are also such links as to connect a user with informative web-sources on passport and visa related occasions. Other sub-sites under the web location are currently under construction, which once active will provide oneself with contact information for different embassies in the capital, hotels and rent-a-car locations, and money-exchange sites. These features will, for the first time compensate a traveler's time and will allow him or her to secure some essential data on the country's tourist accommodations and facilities and locations where these will be found.

The second site, located at www.edu.travelbd.com, essentially provides information on academic institutions of the country and also of international altitudes. The location covers mostly all the accredited universities, colleges, and schools of the country, including specialized institutions such as medical colleges and general education centers. It is a trend these days for an average student to knock on the doors of the different coaching centers of the country; thus one will find it very useful that the site lists a good number of such institutions to facilitate these students. The site also lists web-locations of different international universities and their email contacts, in most cases.

Fazlur Rahman, CEO of TelesoftBD, pioneered the whole approach of such info-based websites. "TelesoftBD claims no commercial benefit from the sites and professes nothing but public interest through them," said Shafat Shahriar, the project manager of the firm. When asked about how the administrators of the sites vow to keep the data and figures presented within the sites up-to-date, Shahriar mentions how sister concerns of TelesoftBD has acted to provide the necessary information required to launch the sites. "Other than sister concerns we also have a team of three field workers who would go out there to fetch current data, while it is not always an easy job to get any help from these public concerns," he mentions.

At present TelesoftBD awaits response from other private sectors along with any feedback from the government to maintain an even better relay of information through such approaches.
