On the occasion of World Amateur Radio Day, the Executive Body of the National Telecommunications Council (CONATEL) commends the remarkable contribution of amateur radio operators to the development and strengthening of communication systems in Haiti.

CONATEL is committed to promoting and supporting this sector, whose role has often been crucial in managing the various crises and disasters our society has faced.

In this regard, CONATEL, in collaboration with the Radio Club of Haiti (RCH), has already trained more than fifty amateur radio operators. Furthermore, the institution is currently working to establish an amateur radio station within its organization, with the aim of ensuring a better understanding of the issues and developing genuine expertise among the trained personnel.

The Council extends its warmest congratulations to the entire amateur radio community, particularly the members of the RCH, for their unwavering commitment and significant contribution to the sector.

In a context where the continuity of communications is a major strategic issue, CONATEL reaffirms its confidence in the reliability, resilience, and responsiveness of amateur radio stations, which remain essential partners, particularly in emergency situations. It encourages them to pursue their mission with professionalism, innovation, and a commitment to public service, for the benefit of the nation.
