What do I actually hope from ICT? The question suddenly shocked me, I lost my orientation on ICT and development. I can show calculation on how open source software development can reduce national cost on ICT spending, but further, how can this development make change as stated over and over in ICT policy documents: to support democracy, equity and promote knowledge deployment. I’m lost. My involvement in ICT communty lately influence my subjectivity on how I see development.
I guess what interest me most is the way ICT can promote knowledge. How it can influence the way people act and behave. Using assumption I think therefor I am, it is knowledge that make people different from any other creature. But in it implementation, sometimes ICT is used to consumption purpose. Are we still fighting for the same purpose as the initial condition? How internet can help farmer to know the latest technology or invention in farming and break broker dominance? What kind of link needed? How can the inter-linkage is being promoted?
