@Aki,
this time you are wrong,

http://www.infodev.org/en/TopicPublications.22.html
Are very insightful publications both to developers, donors and governments working in developing countries.

Why infodev won't help countries in the EU etc?

An example...

Nokia Siemens + Nokia employ 23,000 people in Finland... Finland has a population of 5.4 Million... 4.2% of the population (1 in 25 thereabouts) work for Nokia + Nokia Siemens i.e. in the mobile space... They can take care of themselves :-)

@aki,

You have a very insightful argument in this and your previous threads. I hope many of the 1300+ people on the list can see this.

Davis.

Before I get banned, this is my last post. Please keep an OPEN MIND to the thread, because it some humor. :-)
 
Mobile Applications for Development : http://www.infodev.org/en/Topic.34.html
 
As per InfoDev, these are the only countries in the world that need Mobile Apps for local or international consumption, innovation and economic building :
 
-East Africa
-East Asia
-Eastern Europe and Caucas
-Southern Africa
-Southern Asia.
 
So no one in Western Europe/The Americas needs any innovative help to develop nor is there any poverty to help people. ( huh? )
 
As InfoDev themselves say it : As part of the Creating Sustainable Businesses in the Knowledge Economy program and to encourage innovation and competitiveness among SMEs, Finland, Nokia, and infoDev have placed a special importance on developing mobile activities.
 
Please note there is no CHINA representation at all.
 
Good Day.  :-)
