Voltage drops and frequent power outages caused by failures in the electrical transmission line in Vontovorona have been resolved. Groupe Filatex has installed and modernized 400 meters of power lines in Vontovorona, which were recently inaugurated. The old infrastructure has been replaced by a modern network that complies with safety standards and is calibrated to meet local demand, ensuring a stable long-term supply.
This network stabilization is transforming the daily lives of nearly 1,500 people from 350 households in the Antanety II fokontany. The local fokontany office, Basic Health Centers (CSB), and public schools are benefiting from this new installation. This progress also secures the social and educational projects of the Yamuna and Tsinjo MNA NGO hub in Vontovorona, including the Children’s Reception House sponsored by the Honorary Consulate of Spain since 2016, a daycare for 25 children, and digital, French, and youth guidance training rooms.
This civic initiative, driven and coordinated by the NGO Yamuna, was made possible through a multi-stakeholder collaboration between Groupe Filatex, Jirama, and local authorities. Under the leadership of CEO Hasnaine Yavarhoussen, Groupe Filatex fully funded the equipment for these installations as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility commitments, while the national utility company Jirama provided and installed the new poles.
“This project demonstrates that when public, private, and non-profit actors unite their skills around a common goal, the benefits for the population are immediate and sustainable,” stated Miangaly Ralitera. “We warmly thank Groupe Filatex, Jirama, local authorities, and all partners who made this achievement possible. This new infrastructure will concretely improve the living conditions of families while strengthening the educational and social actions we carry out daily for the children, youth, and women of Vontovorona.”
