TRA holds talks on Bahrain domain name

MANAMA, July 31, 2016

Bahrain's Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) has held discussions with related government and private entities on the launch of the English (.bh) and the Arabic (.البحرين) domain name project.

The meetings, organised at the invitation of the Ministry of Transportation and Telecommunications, aimed at developing the regulatory and operational framework for the registration of Bahrain’s domain name.

TRA director of technical and operations, Engineer Mohammed Alnoaimi, said: “Developing the framework to enable Bahrain’s domain name to be registered in Arabic and English for consumer use will add value to the nation’s ICT development. Adopting simplified, safe services for the registration of domain names will support the digital, knowledge-based economy in Bahrain, particularly the e-commerce sector."

Alnoaimi concluded: “All members involved are keen to leverage aspects that suit the Kingdom’s ICT sector according to international best practices. Our aim is positioning Bahrain as regional ICT hub in accordance with the objectives of the fourth National Telecoms Plan.” - TradeArabia News Service
