the country's inner workings are far behind other well established countries, with some government agencies still heavily relying on fax machines to carry on with daily work.

I once heard that was mainly because older people would rather fax hand-written script than use a computer for it, not sure.

It sure took them a while!

I’m curious how they had to send the floppy disk. Like, go to a special place to use an old computer that could still write to floppy disks? Or create your word document/pdf, compress it as much as possible and somehow find a place to put that on a floppy?
