This is with regards to the news story, “CM reiterates IT importance” published on 14/01/12. The man, and his party, might have their flaws but with the elections coming up, they are making all the right noises. Distributing the laptops is a great gesture on the part of Mr Shahbaz Sharif, and what is even more significant is that he has earmarked Information Technology as a significant façade of the developed countries. IT knowledge is extremely important for a progressive society and we must ensure that your young prodigies advance in this sector and in turn become the cornerstones of development in our neck of the woods.
