Study the news report on the creation of an Internet link for the Solomon Islands on the BBC Website alongside the World Bank data on the islands. Try to identify the extent of the digital divide, the problems that caused the divide the impact of the divide and the solutions provided so far. Propose at least one further initiative that would be useful to the islanders in reducing the digital divide.
The digital divide is not the main problem on the Solomon islands, its all the people trying to kill each other that stops them from growing. If they stopped killing each other and worked together to better the economy and pull down the digital divide then they would have a chance, as they are not the divide is massive and growing.
The solutions that have been provided so far are e-mails through radio waves. This allows them to communicate their concpiracys in privacy and quickly.
I suggest that there should be something done to stop them from fighting, to better the economy, as there economicy grows they will be able to buy in computers and catch up with everyone else. They will need help to start them up however so I suggest that there should be a satallite built for them by the UN that allows them to connect to the internet. This will allow them to get a foot hold on. The UN should also put internet cafés about that allow people to use them for free.
