[Via Satellite 07-27-2015] Yahsat has signed an agreement with new service partner Clicksat, one of the fastest growing satellite solution companies in Southern Asia, to distribute its Internet broadband service, YahClick, to users across Pakistan. The partnership signing follows the official YahClick Pakistan launch on Monday, June 29.

Users will be able to connect to satellite broadband anywhere in the country using a compact satellite dish and modem, including areas where terrestrial infrastructure is currently not available. Clicksat will deliver YahClick’s broadband service, as well as technical, operational and customer care services.

“In the past, satellite broadband internet connection was regarded as a luxury for the tech savvy people, however it is now critical technology for anyone requiring fast and reliable broadband services. Economic growth in rural communities is being hampered because there is little or poor access to the internet, and YahClick addresses these issues by being a cost effective, and versatile product that suits consumers, SMEs and corporations requiring reliable, fast internet access in untapped and underserved areas of Pakistan,” said Nadeem Younes, CEO of Clicksat.
