Colin Charles Agenda

More on Bill’s agenda

Linux isn’t a threat for him in Asia! He wants to boost the Malaysian IT sector, and make a bunch of MS drones – Prime Minister, please listen, and remember, there are alternatives – Apple’s OS X, Linux, and many others.

Education minister signed a 5-year contract, titled “Partners in Learning” – teachers and students are getting on the MS-track! RM10 million is a lot of moolah to be throwing around – why could this not have been farmed out to an open source training company or association?

At least he mentions that talent needs to be cultivated. Seems Malaysians rank “low in terms of know-how”. The usual education needs to be revamped stance shows itself, but now that they’re “locked-in” for five years, I don’t see how that’s a revamp, considering this was the case, five-years before too.
