We built a tower and the village got some SIMs.
See how traffic went nuts in a matter of hours after commercial laumch (red "tch" graph).

Each village deploys its own GSM network with its own base station. They are connected to other villages via VoIP.
All villages can call one another for free and subscribers can roam between the villages.
Patch antennas, located on roof-installed bamboo poles, are used where the base station is not located in the center of the village. That allows for pe*******on into the adobe structures.
Bad cell service? Just start your own telco GSM spectrum is getting assigned to community use in some places.
