This is definitely where the world is headed for - paperless teaching and learning. And this will help save or reduce the plant degradation on this planet. Malaysia has advanced in technology and yet it used to be a poor developing country. Why has it developed so fast? The answer to this question is very much connected with ideas like Alan's. Please Alan, lets get in touch soon.

Thanks for you kind comments.

In this world where the trend is to use ICT for development the world over, it is really frustrating to see many projects being piloted remain pilot stages. Rarely you see any goes to national level which is what matters.

In spite of the huge efforts by world bodies, the reality check is that 5.5 billion of the world's 6.5 remains unnconnected in spite of all the tech we have. Why?

This, we believe, the world is trying to run before they know how to walk.  Most developers are serving the elites with money rather than the poor guys in the middle of nowhere. Sad.

Yes, Samuel, we should keep in touch.
