Building an information society

Free Internet connectivity to secondary schools and libraries has been on the agenda of a session convened by President Voronin. He was quoted as saying “building an information society should become a national priority as part of European integration efforts. Joining EU is not possible unless we meet European standards, especially in the social-economic, educational and informational fields”. In this respect decisive and innovative measures were needed to make a big step towards informational society, pointed the President, adding that there were conditions in place for that to happen.

The President called for a plan to be developed outlining how to build an informational society, the first stage thereof being free internet connectivity to all secondary schools and libraries by the end of 2005. A Task Fore was established under the auspices of the Ministry of Education to co-ordinate and monitor the plan enforcement.
