MESSAGE
“The ICT-based activities taking place in Sri Lanka have led to the creation of an empowered rural society and vibrant local ICT industry. This has strengthened Sri Lanka’s position as a pioneer in adopting ICT for development. Thus, it is indeed timely for Sri Lanka to host ‘e-Asia 2009’, which will be held in Colombo from 2nd to 4th December 2009 under the theme, “Opportunities for Digital Asia”. The event will provide participants the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of technologies advances in ICT and in particular how these advances will ultimately impact development and our future in the region.
Mahinda Rajapaksa
President of Democratic Socialist
Republic of Sri Lanka
