ICT FOR ALL--The theme of the 10th DLSU S&T Congress

Comm. Tim Angelo de Rivera talked about the Philippine ICT Strategic Roadmap and the current position of the Phils as far as e-governance is concerned. He brought and shared a lot fo good news both for the public and private sector. One of the directions mentioned too is the creation of the Dept of ICT. While US and other advanced countries do not have a dept like this, the Phil gov't has actually benchmarked with other Asian developing countries. I agree that it is high time and relevant the Phils create a unit such as the Dept of ICT. This is not to encourage bureaucracy but to empower the government to spearhead taking leverage on ICT to better serve the society.

What do you think of this??..
