John Elkington, pakar CD dan pendiri

42. Peranan ICT terhadap Ekonomi
Telematika mempunyai peranan yang sangat penting dan strategis
sebagai komponen infrastruktur untuk perkembangan ekonomi termasuk
Usaha Kecil dan Menengah (Hitt, Ireland&Hoskisson ,2005).
Pelayanan Telematika dapat menggantikan bentuk komunikasi lain dan
seringkali lebih efektif penggunaannya baik dari segi biaya, waktu dan
rantai distribusinya (Hamel and Prahalad, 1995).
Bukti lain Telematika yang andal akan memunculkan bentuk
komunikasi baru yang lebih kuat, kompleks, dan produktif dari pola-pola
komunikasi lain (Harris, 2001).
Peningkatan produktifitas komunikasi ini pada akhirnya mendorong
pertumbuhan ekonomi di tempat tersebut (Porter, 1985).

44. ICT :Tool to Overcome Poverty
The experiences of Grameen Telecom and
its partners have clearly demonstrated
that ICT could be designed and developed
to cater to the need of the poor. It could
directly raise the income and social status
of the poor in rural Bangladesh and help
them overcome poverty.
1-Apr-11 IMT MM Corporate Ethic 44
45. Microcredit and ICT
Microcredit and ICT have a common capacity - capacity to
empower the poor.
They reinforce each other when it comes to addressing the issue
of poverty.
They lead to a path of self-employment as well as to social and
economic emancipation.
Grameen Telecom and Grameen Bank have designed a package
together primarily to connect people in remote rural areas through
mobile phones.
Grameen Bank borrowers (Village Phone Operators) who buy a
cell phone with a bank loan, can substantially earn bigger income.
ICT and Micro Credit are complementing each other, to change
the lives of the poor in Bangladesh.

• Pelayanan telematika pedesaan di Bangladesh sangat menguntungkan
5 karena ketiadaan interkoneksi menjadi penghalang yang paling besar
untuk mengimbangi permintaan jasa telematika.
6 • Teknologi telematika genggam GSM adalah suatu solusi yang mahal untuk
akses universal di daerah pedesaan.
