indeed<br>you fail eventually. I gather that you have already decided to be too<br>pessimistic about the future of ICTs in this country. When the Koreans<br>built their broadband networks, virtually all men were into
pornography. <br>After overcoming the spiteful start, they have built wonderful local<br>content and search engines that rival google.<br><br>You can now project how we shall use the ICTs to remove poverty from
