A few days ago, in my usual way of using Twitter as a sounding board....in short order 25 tweeps responded via 50 tweets/email. Tweeps love a good chat! Not to be left behind, Facebook Friends also joined in. It was all about the cost of internet access in Jamaica and the need to educate people re the value of the internet. Read to the end to see important lessons I learnt from this exercise.

Greetings on this World Telecommunications Day! I congratulate the Mona School of Business and specifically the Telecommunications Policy and Management Unit for this body of work in bringing us Jamaica’s ICT indicators and Broadband Survey. Professor Dunn has done an excellent job in presenting us with the findings. My job as discussant is to pull out some of the knotty issues as they relate to these findings. To explore the ‘So what?’ behind these statistics. To add granularity and tease out some of the implications for Jamaica as we plan our ICT future.
