Davos (Web Desk): Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar on underscored the importance of ensuring equal access to technology for all nations.
Participating in the Trade Tech's Trillion Dollar Promise meeting organized by World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos today, he said this will enable the impoverished nations to take advantage of the 21st century scientific advancements.
“There is a huge population in the world which is bereft when strategic competition occurs in terms of technology,” the premier said, adding that the strategic competition needs to be addressed which at times overshadows economic competition.
“The desire for dominance overshadows human creativity and inquisitiveness, discouraging the potential for further growth in technology,” the premier asserted.
PM Kakar stressed that the private sector should also take the lead and encourage the flow of information about innovative technologies.
