SADC Telecoms And IT Ministers Meet In Mauritius,
by Ulrika Lomas, for LawAndTax-News.com, Brussels
Tuesday, June 03, 2008
The senior officials of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Member
States have the power and responsibility to utilise ICT to create an all inclusive
information society at both a national and regional level, according to Mauritian Minister of Information Technology and Telecommunications,
Mr E. Sinatambou.
The Minister was speaking at the opening ceremony of the two-day Meeting of Senior
Officials for Telecommunications, Postal and ICT last week.
The Senior Officials comprised Permanent and Principal Secretaries, Directors-General
and National Directors responsible for telecommunications, postal and ICT portfolios
from SADC countries.
During the two-day meeting, Senior Officials reviewed the regional policy
agenda and development strategies and assessed the implementation of those strategies.
Participants also crafted the agenda and formulated recommendations for approval
for the ministers’ meeting.
In his address, Mr Sinatambou called on the Officials to ensure continuity
of SADC resolutions and recommendations, arguing that it was their "duty and responsibility"
to bring them to fruition.
He added that ICT has the power to transform economies,
and has become a key priority for governments in wake of globalisation and technology
revolutions.
He urged member states to work together to forge a common position in face
of the challenges of the digital divide which are confronting the region.
