 I think we are fortunate in that we are holding this just immediately after the World Telecommunication Development Conference, which adopted a number of documents. One is the declaration, which is a political statement. And the second one is an action plan that stipulates or defines what we are going to do. And of course the strategic plan, which gives us the objectives of what we will implement over the next four years. So one of the outcomes was the resolution 8, which was referring to statistics and the need to carry out measurements. And for us what is important is that not only the private sector but also the policy makers, the government have to keep track of how they are embracing the information society. And this is only possible if we can measure. So we are currently having 11 indicators that we use to develop the ICT Development Index. And from next year we are going to use 14 indicators, which we adopted last year. So it's very important for us to keep track of the general trends. And this year we are going to be looking at imaging technologies and how we could measure them, which is big data, internet of things, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and to some extent 5G is technology. When you come up with an index, countries or individuals tend to convey themselves against others. But what we are saying is that we want to keep track of the general trends and each country should self-examine, they should measure against themselves the achievements that they make. And we have what we call the IDI, ICT Development Index value, which shows the incremental achievements of the country. And then we have the IDI ranking, which shows a comparative analysis of where the country stands vis-a-vis other countries. So the idea is not to name and shame. The idea is simply to track progress in the information society using well-defined standards, well-defined definitions, and agreed methodology by all countries. So it is a member-driven process. The indicators are adopted by the countries and what we just do is to process and analyze. And then we get validation from those countries that submit. So our encouragement to member states is that instead of trying to look at the number in the ranking pack, it is more important to look at themselves, their previous achievements and their current achievements, and to try to find the gap and to see how best they can close the gap. We are seeing a general trend. Generally, some countries don't have open dialogue between the National Statistical Office, where you have the experts who deal with the statistics that are cut across all the sectors. And then the regulatory authorities that are specializing on data related to ICTs. So we are encouraging internal coordination that they must cooperate and they must work together. The regulatory authority for telecoms is dealing with the supply side. And then you have the National Statistics Office dealing with households on use and so forth. And then that is the demand side. Now if you have a gap between the two, one produces data and the other one doesn't, then the country is bound to go down. So the key finding this year is that the category that is well known is the least developed countries beginning again to lag behind. And they are lagging behind in terms of broadband, mobile broadband, and fixed broadband. And that is something of great concern to us because even in ITU, in the constitution, the main emphasis is to provide assistance to the developing countries and paying particular attention to the least developed countries. So that's one way of looking at the results, which is a problem for us. And we have to find strategies to address that in it. The other thing that we find is that the young people, 15 to 34 or to 24 other, are really the main users. They are impressed because they are still more flexible and they are growing up. It's a generation, a digital generation, I may call them. So they are the ones who are really taking up these technologies and using them. And then when you look at the other extreme, you look at the elderly, of course. They didn't grow with that culture and the take up is still very low, which is also another issue. So by and large, I would say that if I would go region by region, we find that Europe is leading the pack in terms of connectivity and establishing an information society even in terms of mobile broadband. So they are generally up there. And then you go to the Commonwealth Independent States. They are quite homogeneous in terms of they are doing very well. And when you go to the Asia and the Pacific, then it becomes heterogeneous. Of course because we have some landlocked countries and we also have small island developing states. And then we have some countries that are doing very, very well. Then you look at Africa, generally Africa is lagging behind. Basically because you have out of the existing 48 countries, you have about 30 of them being least developed, coming from Africa. So out of the global 48 countries defined by the UN as least developed countries, 30 of them are in Africa. And then you also have the largest share of those countries being landlocked developing countries. And they have difficulty having access to the sea to access the submarine cables and so forth. And there is over reliance on the coastal countries for them to have access. So this is the state of play. And then you go to the Americas. Of course you also have gaps because you have small island developing states although they are doing very well in the Caribbean. And then you have North America, the United States and Canada. They are doing pretty well. And then when you go down to Latin America, you will find also some differences which means it's also heterogeneous in that sense. This is actually very impressive because we have over 500 people, participants. We have turned up. And we are just coming remember from Telecom which was held in Busan. So countries commit money to travel to go and spend time there. And we also organized the World Telecommunication Development Conference which was very long. So we are really very satisfied by the fact that we have such big numbers. And in terms of the number of countries we have 96 countries. Then we have members of academia, the private sector and so forth. So people are coming. Particularly now I said we have a window of opportunity because now we can link the issue of measurement to the subject of sustainable developments. And for us to measure the progress we are making towards the attainment of the 17 sustainable development goals, we must be able to measure and to track the changes. And because information and communication technology is now central to the achievement of those goals, it's important that we take the leadership and we lead the way and all the countries expect, of course, out of this meeting to get indications as to how they can collect better data for better policy making and also analyze the outcomes of that data which is quite important. And we are also moving from just technology-centric approaches to more people-oriented approaches to make sure that the three pillars of the sustainable development which is the economic, social and environment are all incorporated, things that will impact people's lives. And the other thing that will come out of this meeting is the issue of imaging technologies. We are going to be showcasing the issue of the big data project that we started to collect big data for official statistics. And the next thing will be to look at internet of things that generates a lot of data and then artificial intelligence in the end. Next year, yes. Next year we look forward to take the bar higher and we are going to be able to actually get more countries to submit data on big data to augment the traditional statistics. That's number one. Number two, we will be able to also link the indicators for sustainable development so that we help the world community to measure the progress they are making in achieving the 2030 development agenda. And then next year we are also going to launch totally new products that are going to be in tandem with the technological developments. And we, as we did this year, just to add, we launched for the first time volume two of the Measuring Information Society. In that volume we are doing country profiles. Every country is a winner. So we are highlighting the achievements of each country and the next year we hope that we may actually embark on capacity building regional initiatives where we go region by region, run the programs, workshops to make sure that the countries are ready to collect quality data and to process it and to report it. We have got a lot of things which are lined up and we look forward to 2018.
