“Our two governments are trying to finalize the Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement [IA-CEPA], which will create a new platform for all aspects of economic relations between our two countries … and the digital future, of course, will be absolutely central in that agreement,” Quinlan said during an event at the Australian embassy on Monday (09/07) night.
Indonesia and Australia are anticipated to wrap up their negotiations on IA-CEPA as early as possible, as good amount progress has been witnessed in recent times, the ambassador added.
Imagining a digital future needs planning the way each and every citizen would benefit from. For vast countries, like Indonesia and Australia, reaching out to remote regions is a big dispute which needs to be addressed by improved technologies.
Julie-ann Lambourne, chief executive of Australia’s enVizion Group emphasized the significance of digital literacy and digital connectivity in a way to develop a comprehensive global community in the midst of rapid developments and changes in technology.
EnVizion leads a virtual reality experience project that encompasses a vehicle that could travel to any Australian location to deliver features of the advanced technology to remote communities.
“We built the first in the world virtual reality experience bus. It’s an all-terrain vehicle, nothing stops it. It can go anywhere, to any location, delivering virtual reality,” Lambourne said.
The bus comes with advantages like users receive motivational messages, an impression of employment opportunities and help in making professional choices.
