 I'm here at ITU Telecom World 2012 in Dubai and I'm very pleased to be joined by Minister Makari Emberawa, who is Minister for Communication, Science and Technology for Tanzania. Minister, thank you very much for being with us today. Thank you very much. You're welcome. I'd like to talk to you about debates at ITU Telecom World 2012 have been focusing very much on the current radical transformation of the ICT sector and none more so than very much in your region. What for you is the principal opportunity arising from this transformation? First of all, there is a great opportunity here, especially in the area of broadband. There is a huge development in the area of broadband, especially in every country now. A lot of people talking about broadband, broadband, especially if you take example in Tanzania. In Tanzania we have a ability around 7,560 kilometers of optical fiber. The national optical fiber is connected to our neighboring countries, Rwanda, Burundi, Malawi, Zambia, Kenya and Uganda. All local and local countries like Rwanda and Burundi are using a traffic by Tanzania national broadband. This is a great opportunity for our country, also for our neighbor. Those neighbors who haven't got a port, they're using national ICT backbone through Tanzania. In Tanzania we have got in fact three marine cable landed at Dar es Salaam. Easy, sea comb and sea seas which is from Dar es Salaam to seashells. Here we've got a great opportunity now for the country. Infrastructure is one thing. Next thing now is the content. You can build all nice infrastructure but without proper contact content you can't do anything. From government we have decided to be more serious, involved in development of local applications. In Dar es Salaam we have got Tanzania, what we call Dar es Salaam incubation center. We're easily dedicated for educating young generation, Tanzania young generation to be involved more in e-content or applications. So far we've got a number of applications which has gone to the market which is very good for the development in ICT. That is one part. Second part I think we need to develop more content especially in e-government application like e-education, e-health, e-government, e-e-e- and e-enough. So there's a lot of opportunity to that one. So the big challenge here I think we have got infrastructure, we can develop content but the other issue is the security. So is that your major challenge at the moment? Yes, security is a major challenge here because content we can handle it. It's not a problem time after time one day will be there but if we haven't got a proper security issues it can be very very difficult. One day somebody can come there and destroy everything. So by coming this meeting or by involved with other people in this meeting or by exchanging experience and expertise with other guys we can learn a lot how to protect our infrastructure. Finally I'd like to ask you what are your expectations of the ITU Telecom World 2012? Why are events such as these valuable and what key message would you like to deliver here in Dubai? Definitely what we are saying here this is a big platform we need to sit down together to change expertise between different countries to see how we can work together as a team or we can collaborate in order to fight with a cybercrime. That is very important. That is the first issue. Second issue I want to talk with investors especially who want to invest in Tanzania. Tanzania there is a great opportunity. Tanzania we have got a proper infrastructure a special ICT backbone which is unique for telecommunications sector. Also we have got a neighbor countries which have got a lot of neighbor countries which they haven't got infrastructure but by national ICT backbone through Tanzania you can reach those country with a big population. That is a unique opportunity for everyone who want to come to invest in East Africa. Well I wish you the very best and Minister thank you very much indeed for being with us today. You're welcome. Thank you.
