Our
First Installations!
ABL
now has VSAT terminals installed for our first two clients.
Other
than our own system used by our subsidiary, The
American CyberCafé of Manaus, Coarí
was our first VSAT system installed in the Amazon. This
city now has the second largest economy of the state
due to the exploration of natural gas and oil recently
discovered in that city. Our client there is the Prefeitura
Municipal and they will be using our VSAT system
to implement many different social actions in their
city. It seems that they are very happy with our services
and they are even talking about installing one more
system very soon.

Our
second installation, currently in progress, is in a remote
town almost on the border of the state of Amazonas called
Benjamin Constant. Our client there is a businessman
who plans to establish a CyberCafé and provide
some other services to the local community with our system.
In addition to these first two systems,
we have already signed a contract to install two transportable
systems in ferry boats to be used by a subcontractor
to Petrobras called Socorro Carvalho which
is installing a natural gas pipeline from Coarí to Manaus.
These systems will be used to monitor the installation
progress by sending reports with photos back to the
home office in Manaus.
When these systems are operational
next week, that will constitute 5 Hughes
DirecWay Systems in operation by ABL. It has
been slow getting the company up and running and getting
our first systems in service, but now that we have accomplished
this it is only a matter of time before we become one
of South America's leading providers of broadband services.
VSAT is our first and our flagship
product providing broadband in Amazônia. We are
looking forward in the future to providing a full range
of broadband, Voice over IP, and Information Technology
services throughout all of South America and the Caribbean.

New
Legal Team
ABL
and our parent company, Worldwide Harvest LLC,
have engaged the services of Castro,
Barros, Sobral,Gomes Advogados for our
legal support. After more than two years of beating
our heads against the wall of the Brazilian bureaucracy
we have finally found someone who is able to produce
effective and timely results, besides being able to
speak excellent English! I offer my personal thanks
to José Augusto and Marta of this
firm for their excellent help in navigating the endless
labyrinth of Brazilian Government! Also my thanks to
Boris of Lifestyles
Brazil for referring me.
