Mechanization and modernization of manual national government agencies
in Kurdistan is an imperative initiative that both can assist in
expediting the implementation of affairs as well as improve the
overall security state in Kurdistan.
To effectively compete in the fast-evolving era of digitalization and
globalized economy of the twenty-first century, we have to keep up
with the paste and be willing to adapt accordingly. We can not afford
to remain indifferent to the weight of acquiring many existing
progressive technologies. The economic success of most of the
underdeveloped and developing nations hinges on the level of
capitalization, deployment and promotion of the latest available
technologies, especially the information technology (IT).
Countries as under-populated as Israel have been able to deliver the
best medical experts, defense military systems and economic scientists
to the global community. In contrast, some intrinsically wealthy
emergent Gulf nations; due to lack of devolvement and expertise, must
import their required know-how and totally depend on advanced foreign
industrialist countries.
Despite the presence of many professionals and highly skilled Kurdish
individuals in abroad, compared to the rest of the world, we lag
behind in numerous fields. Our dynamic educated youths are serving in
foreign countries where they graduate from. Receiving higher wages and
due to non-provision of employment opportunities in Kurdistan, they
have no desire to regress to their own homeland. No encouragement
plans and incentives have been introduced, hence creating a vacuum in
human capitals.
Today, most of the legal and administrative paper works are performed
in manual fashion in Kurdistan, affecting the efficiency and security
state of works. Formulating a state-wide information technology
strategy to computerize all our institutions, government owned and
controlled corporations, universities, collages, medical and financing
institutions, is par for the course to prepare ourselves for the
challenges ahead of us.
Despite the costs and consumption of time involved, it can salvage us
more time and assure public of more protection. From Erbil governorate
to Sulaimaniyah, from Duhok to Zakho or to the furthest frontier sites
of Kurdistan, centrally networked computerized government departments
can better and faster cooperate in exchanging information and sharing
intelligence. Kurdish regional government can better keep track of
numerical and financial transactions,www.ekurd.netcalculations and
governmental expenditures. Official census can be held through out
Kurdistan, therefore, enabling the Kurdish regional government to
provide precise statistics and perform more accurate analysis.
National IDs can be issued for Kurdistani citizens, something
comparable to social security numbers (SSN) can be generated and even
imposition of taxes could be enforced, all of which is made feasible
with the attainment of advanced computer technologies.
Apart from all cites aspects; the rise of regional terrorism is one of
the major threats laying in wait for technologically vulnerable
Kurdistan. Given the economic potentials and resources, utilization of
modern technologies has become even more crucial.
Finally, Public funds should be invested in providing public welfare
and safety.
Baqi Barzani was born in 1976 in Barzan- Kurdistan Region (Iraq).
His relatives and close family members were killed when Saddam Hussein
attacked a Kurdish Village named Barzan. Barzani fled to Pakistan in
1990 where he worked for United Nation High Commissioner for Refugees.
He is now applying for U.S. citizenship and plans to work as a
linguist/cultural advisor for the U.S. government. He contributes
regularly to Kurdish press and media. He is the editor-in-chief of a
Kurdish-English online newspaper klawrojna.com.
