Do you really live and understand the Zambia rural set up , there civil servants in the rural areas, that need internet .Of course we don`t strict ourselves to internet only. Introduce other problems as you stated ,remember the wheels of trade from secondary school commerce.

Not everyone in the rural area can be said to have no money my friend . There are civil servants who will greatly benefit from such a move.

It isn’t though, is it? It is the year 1695 at the latest in my grandmothers village.

However, I think that will we do need to improve people’s standards of living, we must not change everything as we will lose the one thingwe have that the rest of the world doesn’t. Our culture.

We also have to put the entire government and its services Online!!! There has to be a platform where the people can forward their queries via mail to different government departments ! I was shocked when the passport office told me that they have no email!!

In reply to Dr. Real Brain.

I agree with you there.Villagers dont need no internet,they have no time for such things.In the first place they cant even afford it.In the urban areas internet cafes are empty because people are broke.We only manage to internet from work when the boss is not looking.Take real development there which will create jobs for the locals and then after they will be able to internet.
