general assessment: Albania has the poorest
telephone service in Europe with fewer than two
telephones per 100 inhabitants; it is doubtful that
every village has telephone service
domestic: obsolete wire system; no longer
provides a telephone for every village; in 1992,
following the fall of the Communist government,
peasants cut the wire to about 1,000 villages and
used it to build fences
international: inadequate; international
traffic carried by microwave radio relay from the
Tirana exchange to Italy and Greece |
