 We are here today with Dr. Lado Keny with the Director General of the National Communication Authority of South Sudan. Dr. Keny, it's a pleasure to have you here. Thank you for your time. Thank you for having me. Dr. Keny, we are here in Kigali. We've gathered here in Kigali this week for two key meetings of ITU, the Regional Development Forum, which took place on Monday, the 5th of December, and the Regional Preparatory Meeting, which is taking place now. How important are these two meetings for the World Telecommunication Development Conference of ITU, which will take place in October 2017 in Argentina? Thank you for the question. Actually, the Regional Development Forum and the Regional Preparatory Meeting for the WTDC17, which is going to take place in beyond hours. In these meetings, we reviewed the performance and the report on all the projects that are concerning the African region, and then that is during the meeting of the Regional Development Forum, and we did make contributions to, you know, we evaluated what was lacking and what was not implemented and what are the difficulties and all the characteristics that are supposed to make progress. And now, with that one, then we came to the Regional Preparatory Meeting and whatever the difficulties that happened in the Regional Development Forum report, then now we are bringing them forward and making them better so that the African region, when we go to the WTDC in 2017, we will be more prepared, our contribution will be harmonized, and then also the projects that for the Regional Projects, the Regional Initiative that we are going to come with will all be harmonized. And then we look forward that in collaboration with the other regions of the ITU, then we will come into understanding so that we come out with more meaningful resolutions to actually achieve the SDGs and the wishes that are part of the mandate of the ITU to implement, to impact on the life of the people. Thank you. And speaking about the impact we make on people's lives, we know that the ICT's landscape has changed tremendously in the past few years. How can ICT development contribute to the achievement of the sustainable development goals which were adopted in 2015? Yes. I'll just tell you an example of the region where South Sudan is in. The ICT is contributing a lot in achieving those developments. One of them is like the banking of the unbanked people in this region. We have got what is called Northern Corridor region. In this Northern Corridor region, we created a one network area where we took out all the roaming charges and then we fixed the tariffs for the telecommunication operations. And then we increased the traffic and the interaction of the people. You get many people from this region in another country and they were able to communicate at affordable prices. And then also the cross-border mobile money transaction actually is a very great thing because now people in the rural areas they were able to access banks, they were able to access the small businesses, were able to access loans through the banks and all this. And this has been made possible with the ICT which is the mobile communications. So this is just one example. Specifically in South Sudan we have also initiatives for peace, for example, in South Sudan. We are building peace centers in different parts of the country to bring all the youth together and through, you know, taking out some of the, or educating them on peace through the communication or the internet actually. They do links together. There are a lot of misconceptions about other communities and the other community when they come together and talk through the video conferencing, then you find that there is harmony here. This also we are achieving, you know, the SDGs goals through this ICT technology. Thank you very much. This is the end of our interview. Thank you very much, Dr. Kenny, for your insight. You're welcome. You're welcome.
