Technology is the Key!!!

This is the message of the Minister of Environment, Science and Technology. She believes that the only way for the country to achieve middle class status by 2020 is to invest all they can in science and technology. Indeed, that is what divides the developing from the developed. With this in mind a new policy towards science and technology has been enacted that will do just this including a new scholarship scheme for students in the STEM areas. A committee has also been formed to coordinate affairs. I believe that this is the most critical aspect of development and hope that the correct checks and balances are in place to make sure that this unit is not only efficient and competent but that the money is not pushed down the pockets of those in charge. I hope to hear of a progress report soon.
