KUCHING: Batu Kitang Assemblyman, Lo Khere Chiang handed sets of laptops and printers to Kpg Bukit Panchor and Kpg Lidah Tanah, recently, to open up a world of possibilities to the less fortunate.
According to Lo, this is to encourage the Kampung folks with no equipment access to empower and drive themselves towards a digital economy Sarawak.
“The laptops could help the kampung folks to get more information as well as enhancing their knowledge and skills with regards to information and communication technology (ICT). I believe strongly that ICT literacy can improve the income and livelihood of the people,” Lo pointed out.
And being able to present the laptop to both Kampungs during Hari Raya Aidiladha really brings out more joy on this special occasion.
“It means something to the kampung and even greater to me. It’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving,
“Hopefully there is no more struggling over social interaction and we can integrate through technology,” he said.
Lo called on the people in Batu Kitang constituency to make full use of the Internet and modern communication gadgets in business, employment, marketing and other socio economic fields to support our Chief Minister, Datuk Amar Abang Johari Tun Openg’s vision of a Digital Economy, producing a sustainable income society in the future.
