Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The government will soon launch a book on macro indicators of the county`s information and communication technology (ICT), an official said.
"Communication and Information Minister Muhammad Nuh will launch the book on the ICT macro indicators on the occasion of a seminar on Indonesia Outlook 2008 on Thursday (Jan 31)," Achmad Jazidie of the Center for Technology and Industry Policies said on Thursday.
He said the ICT macro indicators would hopefully encourage stakeholders, along with the government, to make positive contributions to the development of the ICT sector in the country.
Meanwhile, Abdullah Alkaff, assistant to the communication and information minister, said the idea of writing the book came from Muhammad Nuh to give complete and accurate information on the conditions of the country`s information and communication technology.
The government hoped the launching of the book would attract investors to the country, improve productivity and bolster the nation`s optimism, he said.
"Investors will be willing to invest if the ICT of a country is good. ICT is related to many factors and one of them is productivity. If the ICT of a country is good, its productivity will be high and investment will increase," he said.
