Support Note from the PanAmazônia Association to Starlink and Elon Musk

The PanAmazônia Association deeply thanks Starlink and Elon Musk for the initiative to provide high-speed, low-cost internet to the Amazon region. This advancement is a historic milestone that has transformed the lives of millions in the Amazon, an area characterized by its isolation and logistical challenges due to its vast expanse.

Starlink is revolutionizing communication in the region, benefiting essential sectors such as transportation, education, healthcare, and agriculture. Connectivity has improved the safety and efficiency of transportation, provided access to online educational resources for rural and indigenous schools, and facilitated teleconsultations and the transmission of medical tests in hospitals. The population is also benefiting from online services for information, shopping, communication, and entertainment.
