ConclusionConclusion
In country such as Laos, with so many pressing basic developmentneeds, it is not surprising that attempts at establish Internetconnectivity and E-business have been hampered by a general lackof skills and resource, Low levels of PC penetration, combined withpoor telecommunication network with also slow the process.
There is currently a high level of interest in ICT development in the
country. ICT implementations and strategies, and the allocation ofresources, from the government, donors, and the private sectors,towards ICT development are reflected in existing ICT relatedprojects focusing on human resources development, governance,administration, and information management.
