Chelsea, I think the point that I was trying to make is that ICT can be used to help solve the issues of society (as you point out). However in our country, despite huge societal issues, the ICT industry has largely neglected getting involved in helping solve these problems. My point is that it is time for this to change. As I said in the post, if the ICT industry wishes to grow and excel, it is critical that it becomes relevant within the context of the key issues facing our society today. I am therefore arguing that individuals and businesses in the ICT sector should start focussing more on ICT for Development (ICT4D) issues.

ICT may be very helpful to the world today but it has nothing to do with elections. it may be used in elections but what is important is, the government official that won in the election should be deserving. ICT can not answer any issues in the society now, but it can help solving the issues of society. (www.kika.ca)
