Tourist Information Kiosks (TIK) to be Located in Key Places in Sri Lanka

30th August 2010, www.dailynews.lk

Sri Lanka will soon have a 24 hour, 365 day non sleeping Tourist Information provider in the form of a Kiosk network which could provide information tourists need at their fingertips.

The Information Kiosks, similar to a Bank ATM machine in size and looks, are to be installed shortly in places where there is a high tourist foot fall such as airports, harbours, tourist information centres, World Trade Centre, hotels, shopping malls etc with free of charge operational access. Information would be updated 24 hours a day.

The Tourist Information Kiosk (TIK) is a Digital Information Kiosk Network with touch screen operational capability. It is easy to operate and does not require computer literacy. It is equipped with a thermal printer which will print directional maps and addresses and listed locations.

The information in the TIK will be available in the web as well as in mobile phones. It also has the capability to provide information in all major languages.

TIK has been designed by Intelo Networks (Pvt) Ltd in association with the Tourism Ministry.

The information in the TIK will be available in the web for tourists to refer even before visiting the country as well as in the mobile phones while touring the country.

The kiosks will show off the best of Sri Lanka and provide a crucial focal-point of information for visitors. While the Kiosk provides general information on the country, news , weather, currency rates etc. other service providers such as hotels, boutiques, travel organizers have to enlist with the network in promoting their products and services provided for an annual fee.

Interested parties are advised to contact Intelo Networks on 011-2549549 or via email info@intelonetworks.com.
