Rwanda: A Mobile In Every Pocket

Rawanda What Silicon Valley is to the USA and what Bangalore is to India... Rwanda is slowly becoming the hub of African IT development according to this post at Mobileactive.

"More "mobile in every pocket" than "chicken in every pot", the Vision 2020 project aims to rapidly transform a depressed agricultural economy into one driven by information communications and technology (ICT). If it works, the percentage of Rwanda's workforce involved in farming will drop from 90% to 50% in 15 years. By then the country should be the regional ICT hub - a kind of Singapore of the Great Lakes."
