These are some of the questions that a forum organized by the CyberPress will try to answer tomorrow, 10:30 a.m., at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Makati City.
The forum, supported by Sun Microsystems Philippines, has "Computerization Programs in the Public Sector" as the theme.
Key executives from ICT companies engaged in government computerization projects as well as public officials involved in policy formulation have been invited to serve as speakers and panelists in the forum.
They include representatives of the Commission on Information and Communications Technology (CICT), Commission on Elections (Comelec), LTO contractor Stradcom, research firm XMG Asia-Pacific, and CIO Forum, the national association of government chief information officers.
The event is the first of three forums being organized for this year by CyberPress, or the IT Journalists Association of the Philippines (www.cyberpress.org.ph).
