About :
- The International Tele-Communication Union has completed a century in the journey of its life. The most ancient of the Specialised Agencies of the United Nations, it has proved to be a reliable medium of human contacts through local, national, international, and intercontinental distances. With the background of its proud past, today, the I.T.U. is looking forward to the bright future in the new age of science and technology brought forth by Man’s exploration of outer space.
