SLT Rainbow Pages, which is an affiliated institution of the SLT Group, is the leading communication entity that has enabled its customers to obtain information on goods and services conveniently by publishing Sri Lanka’s most organised telephone directory.
Taking its services to the next level and with the objective bringing together important telephone numbers out of more than 1.5 million SLT fixed line connections and mobile connections that have surpassed the entire Sri Lankan population which is 22 million in numbers, the SLT Rainbow Pages is now providing its services through newest digital platforms including mobile apps.
The SLT Rainbow Pages will publish directories dedicated to various fields in order to gain the contribution of small and medium scale industries to the national service it is rendering, by publishing Sri Lanka’s only Business Directory, which has brought together various business entities and state institutions. In addition, the SLT Rainbow Pages has planned a new project to embark an extensive national service by bringing together professionals who provide services on daily wages.
The main objective of this initiative is to help all the institutions that provide services throughout the country including the professionals who build their economy from work on daily basis to generate more income while supporting the Sri Lankan Government’s policy on digitalising all the institutions according to the e-government policy. Under this project, information from primary professionals of the society including plumbers and electricians to institutions that provide large scale services will be collected. As an example, if there is water leak in a home or in an institution, owner of that building can call the 24 hour hotline which is due to be introduced shortly. Subsequently, a SMS with the contact numbers of the plumbers close by will be sent to the party who requires the service. They will be able to obtain a trustworthy service by simply dialling those numbers. The objective is to collect the information of the professionals and institutions that provide such services throughout the country.
No fee will be charged for the data entry or the service opportunities they receive. Please follow the following measures to provide information:
nName of the business or the professional, nature of the business, address and
