Young man develops
Afghan Messenger
KABUL (PAN): A young Afghan, Hafez Nasratullah Albi, says he has
developed software called Afghan Messenger, which is more advanced than
the Yahoo and other versions.
The 26-year-old told Pajhwok Afghan News during an exclusive interview
that he had developed the messenger so that his countrymen could use
their own social connectivity tool.
The Afghan Messenger will have more options and facilities than other
versions, Albi claimed, explaining it had a special system -- Online Teacher
-- for those who cannot go to universities.
Another unique option of the messenger is access to thousands of online
radio stations, which people could easily tune into by just getting online,
Albi added.
He said: "There is an option in the messenger to choose online radio
programmes, comment on them and leave messages. There is no need for
phone use in this regard."
The man said up to 20 people could have a video conference, using other
messengers, but his version has the capacity for 100,000 people to have a
similar conference simultaneously.
"If the messenger is put to use, it will have the capacity of 10 million IDs in
one year." He believed the software cannot be hacked. He sent its
database to hackers, who could not hack the software.
The Afghan Messenger could not only compete with other messengers, but
could work better, he asserted. He wants to dedicate the messenger to
the Afghan government and people, though it could be sold to private
companies at a very high price.
"My financial situation is not as good as to let me buy other required tools
for it. If the government provides me a special server with a 24-hour
Internet facility and advanced computer systems, the software will serve
millions of people."
He invited other Afghan computer an information technology experts to
team up with him in giving the nation a messenger of its own. He reminded
of banking software named Nasrat Wardak Accounting (NWA).
"I also developed Simple Accounting for currency conversion. As it was
welcomed by companies and moneychangers, I was encouraged to develop
the second software NWA."
Simple Accounting that can convert 75 currencies at a time is also useful
for moneychangers, private commercial firms, banks and shops. The man
said he had come to Afghanistan from Egypt to promote his software.
The son of Eng. Mohammad Rahim, he was born in 1986 in the Ambukhak
village of Chak district in central Wardak province. He received primary
education in the village before getting admission to the Abdul Hai High
School in Gardez.
For higher education, he went to Iran, Turkey and other Arab countries. He
specialises in banking and computer engineering. He was 15 year-old when
he learnt the Holy Quran by heart at the Bilal bin Rabah Quran
Memorisation Centre in Gardez.
Currently, he is the manager of Kite Software Team in Egypt and has so far
developed eight software versions.
