Singapore remains a leader in digital inclusion, with initiatives such as the DigitalAccess@Home scheme narrowing the digital divide. But according to Jeanette Whyte, Head of Public Policy and External Affairs, APAC, GSMA, access alone is not enough for long-term success. “Although Singapore has very good access and the citizens have access, there are issues around why people might not want to use the internet. This could be around affordability. Maybe they can't afford a good handset or even the monthly payment packages,” Whyte said. She added that factors such as digital literacy and content relevance also matter. “There needs to be continuous training and upskilling of people, particularly maybe the older generation.”   https://sbr.com.sg/videos/singapore-expands-digital-inclusion-focus-safety (ICE SINGAPORE)
