The Information Superhighway
With the new right to information law being passed, it could herald the dawn of a different information superhighway in Bangladesh. One where government information is never more than a request away and where increased transparency and openness define what it is like to live in a participatory democracy. Our information superhighway has only been approved with the passing of the right to information law, now it needs to be carefully planned and paved with more than just good intentions, but good deeds. It's time the information flows free, fast and accurately.
