@sanjanah @agalappatti More here. There are still approximately 331K Sri Lankans out if the reach of mobiles, so other complimentary options needed to reach such people. twitter.com/LIRNEasia/stat…

At a time of crisis, getting timely, credible #news and information to the public is crucial: it can save lives. Large numbers in developing Asia now own mobile phones, so, #SMS can be used to get information out to the public. (1/3)

@Kauship1 @LIRNEasia @ColomboUni Even if a household has a working and connected device, there are still further barriers of data affordability and lack of skills (not just basic but to ensure safe/secure experience, particularly if you're talking about kids, but applies for other vulnerable groups also).

Our @AfterAccess research shows that more digitally connected #SMEs perform better on more than one measure. See more above.

#MSMEs have been hit hard by #COVID19 and the future for #lka #MSMEs looks bleak according to @FT_SriLanka ft.lk/columns/Econom… If more MSMEs got online and improved their capability for digital payments, could this help them bounce back?

27 June was World MSME Day. More digitally connected SMEs means better business, especially during lockdowns; see what the #lka @AfterAccess #SME survey has to say about this in this video youtube.com/watch?v=-RwCGO… #digitalinclusion #COVID19

Tax on data services now 16.67% (prev 11.35%). Other services now 27.77% (prev 21.96%). Unfortunate as just 13% of Bangladeshis (15-65 yrs) reportedly used the internet; 1/3rd of #Bangladesh internet users (15-65 yrs) cited costly data as a barrier. @AfterAccess @LIRNEasia

@AfterAccess @LIRNEasia findings showed 61% of #Bangladesh mobile phone owners had internet-enabled phones. Even with supposedly cheaper locally made handsets available in the market, 35% of Bangladeshis (15-65) said they could not afford a device.
