"The
Internet User's Society-Niue is a non-profit corporation registered in the
United States of America. We've developed the funding source-model and
technical resources for the Internet Users Society Niue project mainly to help
promote international communications specifically for the Island of Niue who
for whatever reasons did not have the resources or opportunities to "be
online" on their own. We hope that the developments that we have made over
the past eight years will continue to be a valuable and useful part of Niue's
communication world wide we and look forward to continued development as more
exciting technologies become available."
-Bill Semich, Co Founder-
"Niue, as far as I know, is the
only country in the world with free Internet services. This advancement in
technology (online since 1999) represents a lot of hard work to say the very
least. In addition to the research, engineering and planning that I've done here
in Niue, Bill and his team in the U.S. have devoted thousands of man-hours
helping us put all of this together and making it happen. One of the most
important aspects of any long term technical project of this proportion is
having the availability of vast outside resources for ideas, marketing, and
engineering. So, all of these things have come together as a result of some
very efficient team-work. The end result is full service Internet access for Niuean residents and the government of Niue. Most recently
the wifi networks have really been a major
improvement in communications on the Island, and those services are expanding
even more this coming year. "

Emani Fakaotimanava-Lui
and his Company "RockET Systems" has been a great help to us and
provides IUSN with a back-up systems administrator as well. He also runs the
Internet cafe at the commercial center in Alofi open
9am-3pm, Monday through Friday. Development of technology services here on Niue
has been a long hard struggle and having Emani on
board has helped tremendously. We look forward to a long lasting relationship
with Emani, and hope that the growth trend in private
sector, and technology on Niue will continue.

Stafford Guest, owner of Sails
Restaurant, and Company Administrative Services, handles the administrative
tasks involved with putting together an infrastructure like the Internet Users
Society Niue. He's agreed to spend his time doing the not-so-fun paperwork
associated with the development of services and situations here in Niue so that
the technical people can concentrate on keeping the systems on-line and moving
along. Many thanks to Stafford and his company for "getting things
done" on paper so we can keep on developing the communications services in
Niue.
-Stafford Guest, Co Founder-
