Early this month, the Deputy Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has embark on the internet access for everyone. The wireless broadband Internet access should be made easily available to all, including rural folk, at reasonable rates. The products of information and communications technology (ICT) shall not being enjoyed by a section of the people only.
His point is right. In fact in the present information age, ICT products should not be monopolised by urbanites. Any internet broadband technology either wired or wireless could bring tremendous benefit if remote areas were "connected" as well. Which agency must play a big role to ensure that the internet service can be accessed by anyone at a very affordable rate. If we can ensure that the rural folk can then access information from any part of the world easily. E-business can grows faster once we get a better exposer from the infinite benifit of the internet.
I hope all the related agencies work harder to realize the project of the internet access for everyone at a reasonable price and good quality of service.
