IT in a country

IT in a country

Using the Internet has been prevalent only recently.But this is not included the whole country. Even in capital city there are only 40%. 30% use the Internet for fun, entertainment like chatting. 5% use it for commerce. The last 5% use it their research.

In my country, even a (BSc in Computer Science)graduate can't properly write any programs at all. In our computer universities and colleges, students are all engaged in learning computer books. They have no proper or regular practice on computers. Some students don't have their own computers. They learn computer theories by heart for passing the exams.

It's true that many computer training companies have been established. However,their purposes are for making their living;for their benefits rather than the future of youth;the training prices are high; the jobs are rare. So no one can ever adore computer field.

There are probably some bright IT professionals. But they use their knowledge for their own benefits. I'd like them to call us by seminars;but they don't ever.

So many prospective students go to foreign countries for better future.

What country?

You seem to have omitted a vital piece of information: what country are you talking about? Just to put things into perspective, you know...

You're kidding right?

... No offense, but what the hell are you on about? lol. I'm a bit confused, maybe I read wrong but you just stated the situation in your post and that was it. Is there a question? Is there a point?

Well how about if I say where you are from? I do know where you're from. And I guess I can see somewhat why you would be so cautious as to not say the name of your country. Still I have no idea what it would be like living under a military government so I don't know what to say really.

Believe it or not...

Using computers was introduced around 1996 ,let alone using the Internet.

However it was not so popular 'cause the price of a computer is so high even for a mid-come family.

Everyone can't own a computer.

High Schools have some Apple computers for multimedia teching.
But they don't use them regularly for that purpose.

If I were born in other countries, I'll be ...........

Thank you, my dear moderator MHTML, for your kindness and understanding.

I'm very curious though, it's not easy to find deep information about your country. What sort of restrictions does the government impose on you there?

This thread's gonna become a place for discussing politics....

I'm afraid they're watching or tracing me
But I have to say one thing.
They don't impose us,students, directly, but do in a indirect way.


Any way, thank you ,dear moderator

ghell is on a distinguished road
what the??!

errm.. well i spose we can narrow it down to a non-english speaking country, probably with a high paranoia rate

i dont really know wht hes on about though, fewer people with skills means those who do have the skills can make the money they deserve, there isnt really much money in programming compared to other jobs anyway, my teacher keeps telling me to become a systems analyst or project manager so he put me on this crappy course about project management and it was blow-your-brains-out boring but really, those who can learn it on their own probably deserve the money more

btw, any organisation is there to make money if you think about it, nothings free, even non profit orgs are there to make money for other people, its all about survival, you work to make money, to buy essentials like food, to live

Guessing the country is probably a bad idea. I was reading about it last night, very interesting. It's hard to imagine from the perspective of someone from the US.

But IT really does set countries free, yeah? I've heard lots about stenography and the such in China. It would be interesting to hear about IT experiences from places like North Korea and the like.
