Pakistan Government Technology Ill-literate?
Allow me to comment about the technology concerns of Pakistan Government. Like every country, We too have a so called state’s official web portal (Pakistan.Gov.PK). About a week ago, I was shocked to see it was still displaying Mr. Soomro as President of Islamic Republic of Pakistan. I was wondering how updated our govt.’s technology department is? I mean the portal wasn’t updated even after 2 weeks since Zardari was elected as President.
Shall we call it an ignorance? or it is really technology ill-literacy ? And this isn’t all, I’ve been noticing that the website is down for 3 or 4 days. I tried browsing this website from various ISPs including anonymous servers across the world and it is confirmed that As of today, 12:15 PDT, The Website is Down. I would simply say this is too much.
Official country portals are considered the best gateways to information about any country. Even the underdeveloped countries like Bangladesh are having informative official country portals that are updated on momentarily basis.
