Let There Be More Light In Samoa On The Marvels Of Internet

Written by Pio Sioa

Hearing our Deputy Prime Minister hit on the marvels that the MCIL website holds in store for the development of Samoa’s economy by attracting foreign investors, made one wanted to raise the hands and proclaim in loud reverence, AMEN MISA. More booming Halleluiahs for the Samoa Visitors Authority going on line as well with a spanking new website soon. The preaching of the internet WORD is finally starting to sink in to the Unbelievers. Maybe now when the internet literate spreads the Online Word to the unconverted, eyes will hopefully lit up and comprehension sinks in…not blank faces devoid of any hint of emotion. The more the Internet Word filters across to accepting ears, the quicker the light spreads into the dark corners of ignorance to the potentials of development waiting to be tapped, by global exposure. The Samoalivenews.com website is a classic example of the gift that is handed to our remote location in relations to the rest of the world that the internet access bridge. Thousands of Samoans all over the world log in to Samoalivenews.com every day to learn of what is happening in their beloved country. One of the exciting features of the website is the way surfers are able to express their views and opinions on issues uploaded into the website. Through the services of Samoalivenews.com, Samoans flung afar to all corners of the world are able to become part of what is happening in where their heart lies. Samoans who have commented from as far as Brazil in South America, Russia in Eastern Europe, Germany, Britain, Holland, China, Japan and other distant countries of the world, are never far from home. Awareness of the challenges Samoa is going through inspires these countrymen and women to want to help in any way possible and not just through remittances. Non-Samoans who access Samoalivenews.com are equally inspired and subsequently keen to consider Samoa a holiday destination, by reading about the country and becoming intrigued. These are basically the benefits of global exposure that the Deputy Prime Minister was alluding to at the MICL. Website launching. How Misa can speak so eloquently about the benefits of the internet and admit at the same time that he is not technically versed on how to surf the net is interesting. Maybe he too is an unbeliever who has seen the light. One would prefer that to be the case then be made to feel that his admission was a sign of age. The age of technology is developing so fast the old ones are being caught out. All credit however to Misa that he is willing to learn. There are others in the same age grouping, many of them really, who are too stubborn to change their ways. As the Reverend Taipisi Leilua said in blessing the new website, God has a website of his own. As Misa suggested, you log in by dropping on your knees and calling on GOD_LOVE.COM.
