Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We have understood some little bit of expert knowledge in terms of transmission
0:04
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
of the platform and the ecosystem.
0:06
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So that the place that is seated here is very much clearly illustrated and understood
0:10
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
to everyone of us.
0:11
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I think we misunderstood some little bit of genesis
0:16
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
of this assignment.
0:17
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
This assignment did not come through a band of business at
0:23
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the very beginning.
0:24
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
It's the ministry that approaches Fijian Mobile.
0:29
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
during the emergence of COVID to come to their skill
0:33
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in making sure to make a platform,
0:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
e -learning ecosystem for continuity of learning to
0:41
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
take place.
0:41
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
This is where the genesis begins.
0:43
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And often from that onset up to now,
0:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
it's been from assignment package to assignment package.
0:49
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Of course,
0:50
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we have admitted that in terms of capacity building,
0:54
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
of course capacity can be built.
0:57
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
But you need to build the right people's capacity,
1:00
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
both the back and end,
1:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and also the infrastructure of the ICT,
1:05
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
so that maintenance and sustainability is put in place
1:09
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
for record purposes.
1:10
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
But if you have to build the capacity of people who are not the right
1:14
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
people, of course,
1:16
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
you are just wasting your time.
1:17
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
In terms of sustainability and continuity of
1:21
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
what has been built,
1:22
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
it's no longer going to be there when you come next time.
1:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Because they are not the right people whose capacity to be built.
1:29
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Secondly,
1:30
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we found out that from record,
1:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the people who went through that capacity building are no longer at state
1:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
or are no longer at that particular directorate who should
1:40
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
serve as the lead for whatever coming event supposed to be done.
1:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So this is what has been the challenge.
1:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We beg not to go into any fixed runs.
1:50
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and intellectual property and infidelity in terms of data management
1:54
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and ecosystem,
1:56
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we do not want to go this far any longer.
1:59
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We have discussed this and DPS Bar came at certain point
2:03
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in time, said let's drop that one because we went into that far in
2:08
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
terms of MOU.
2:12
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
bringing infidelity and intellectual property in terms of what
2:16
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
is owned by the ministry and what is not owned by the ministry.
2:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We have our property,
2:21
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
which is the offline version.
2:22
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
That is not belong to the ministry.
2:24
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
The ministry owns the world,
2:26
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the island Gambia,
2:27
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
which is meant to be supported by the offline system because we
2:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
all know what the Gambian setup looks like.
2:35
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
If you want to totally deploy Ireland Gambia,
2:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
an online system for the Gambia,
2:40
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we have asserted that 30 % of this Gambia,
2:43
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the country is not prepared to take up that challenge.
2:45
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
You are the experts
2:50
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in the ecosystem of ICT and technology.
2:53
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
30 % of this country cannot go that mile in subscribing
2:58
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
to an online system.
2:59
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So fees on mobile have an offline system that can serve
3:03
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
as a backup,
3:04
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
a bubble,
3:05
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
for the continuity of this learning to be taking place at anywhere
3:09
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in the country.
3:10
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
This is why we think we came together to support one
3:14
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
another and making sure that a lifelong learning transpires
3:18
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
for the ministry.
3:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And as we speak at the beginning,
3:22
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we said we expect to bring about different synergies.
3:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
that can propel where we had stopped before and
3:30
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
see how best it can move on.
3:32
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And moreover,
3:33
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the foundation of NAMI is just one component of
3:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
what Island Gambia has accommodated.
3:42
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
It's just a component.
3:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So we were expecting that EV12 visit,
3:47
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the need assessment analysis has been done.
3:50
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
That should have been put place for us to review and scrutinize and understand
3:54
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
what were some of the gaps established.
3:57
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
With the expert guidance and knowledge,
4:00
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we say, okay, this does not exist,
4:01
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
this does not exist,
4:02
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
this is there,
4:03
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
maybe you have not consulted.
4:05
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Because if you are making a need assessment analysis,
4:09
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
you have not consulted the experts that design the architecture.
4:12
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Do you think that's a complete need assessment analysis?
4:16
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
It's far from fetch.
4:18
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So we are thinking that if the new assessment analysis is
4:22
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
done, we are not consulted and we are not brought to the validation of that.
4:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
How could we say that one is a
4:30
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
complete picture?
4:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
That is completely demystifying.
4:34
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And therefore we are thinking that if that is supposed to be brought on the table for
4:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
us to understand and give the ministry a correct direction,
4:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
obviously we need to team up,
4:45
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
collaborate and see how we could address the problem.
4:49
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
so can i can i jump in i'm sure what you want to say is
4:53
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
that's only what i want to say
5:00
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Just a point of correction.
5:01
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I don't
5:06
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
want this to be said.
5:08
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I just want to,
5:10
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
you know,
5:11
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
initially,
5:12
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
my take here is I had the two suggestions.
5:15
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We are going back and forth on the same issue.
5:18
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So my suggestion here is,
5:21
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
since we have the platform,
5:25
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And the main point on the table here is Island
5:29
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Gambia belongs to MOPSI.
5:31
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
My mission here is this.
5:34
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Let's migrate.
5:36
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Since we own it,
5:37
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we migrate.
5:39
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We take it to the platform that we own it.
5:42
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Then we can work together to see how best we can reinforce
5:47
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the implementation of that platform for the benefit of
5:51
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the government.
5:51
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
One,
5:53
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we have the capacity.
5:57
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in terms of skills,
5:58
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in terms of resources,
5:59
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
human resources.
6:00
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
My request to your office here is we
6:04
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
build the capacity of our own resources that we
6:08
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
can continue managing the platform.
6:10
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
There we can have a sustainability.
6:12
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
These are my two submissions.
6:13
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Thank you.
6:14
S…
Speaker 3 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Okay,
6:20
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Dr.
6:21
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Sorey, you said a point of correction.
6:24
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Yes.
6:24
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Can you make that point before we go?
6:26
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Yes.
6:27
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So, the first submission is that
6:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We consulted,
6:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I mean,
6:33
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Kyushimuba through state.
6:35
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
That is number one during the assessment period.
6:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Number two,
6:40
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
nowhere in our
6:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
submission did we make any statement
6:48
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
to say whether Island Gambia is bad,
6:53
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in quotes,
6:55
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
or whether it's working or it's not working.
6:57
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We didn't say Island Gambia is not a system
7:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
that is not functional.
7:04
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
The same thing I said from day one is the same
7:08
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
thing I keep saying from every meeting we go to.
7:12
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
You see,
7:13
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
but the same pattern keeps appearing from wherever,
7:17
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I mean, from the grassroots up to where we are sitting today.
7:21
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
If you are implementing a system,
7:25
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
you look at sustainability.
7:27
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
One,
7:28
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the sustainability gives you,
7:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
you work backwards from there.
7:33
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
The typical example,
7:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the directorate or the individual director that
7:40
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
implemented Island Gambia keeps changing,
7:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
which means that the system must outlive the
7:49
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
individual in the position that implemented
7:53
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the system.
7:54
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
If that was done from the beginning,
7:57
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we will not be sitting here today to discuss
8:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Whether they should transfer Ireland Gambia or talking about capacity
8:07
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
or skills,
8:08
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
that will not happen.
8:09
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So if the system had
8:13
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
been transferred to MOCSE,
8:15
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the technical people or the ICT directorate where
8:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
it was placed would have been finding solutions whether people
8:23
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
move in or out.
8:25
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
The system will continue to exist from there.
8:28
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So these are the two things I want to submit.
8:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I keep saying the same thing in every meeting.
8:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We didn't say the system is not good.
8:39
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
All I'm saying is that the system should be
8:43
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in the hands of the ministry,
8:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
which is also the system on its own,
8:49
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
so that the system now manages the operational
8:53
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
activities of implementation.
8:56
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So that whether Fusion Mobile
9:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
leaves Gambia today or not.
9:04
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I learned Gambia should still exist.
9:06
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Whether I am in Gambia or not,
9:08
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
whatever work we came to do,
9:11
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the work should move on.
9:12
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
That is all I keep saying from the beginning.
9:14
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And I think I'll keep saying the same thing till I leave this country.
9:17
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Thank you.
9:19
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Yes, Dr.
9:19
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Jawa. Yes,
9:20
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
so thank you very much.
9:21
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And I'm very happy because I think there's a lot of alignments from discussion that
9:26
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we had. And it's like we have a similar understanding.
9:28
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So I think the difference that we have is from where we are coming from.
9:31
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So instead of seeing this as a technical issue,
9:33
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
let's see this as an organizational issue.
9:36
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
What do we try to look for?
9:37
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And first and foremost,
9:39
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
your point on using island Gambia,
9:42
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
your point on duplication.
9:43
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Yes, no one wants duplication.
9:45
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
no one wants to bring in a system that you already have and they bring another one and
9:49
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
one of the reasons why you know that is is the case because we don't fully understand
9:54
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
what island gambia offers so sorry for you know our ignorance
9:58
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in exactly what's been done
10:00
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
But one of the things that has been very clear is that Iron Gambia has potential.
10:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Has a big potential.
10:04
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And that it is going to be a far better starting point for us.
10:07
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Because everybody that we talk to,
10:09
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
those who have access to it,
10:10
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
can tell you everything that is there.
10:12
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Can tell you,
10:12
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and you know, you're talking about the debate about having the access at a local level.
10:16
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And that is a very,
10:17
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
very big part of trying to rule out science and technology education.
10:21
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
That is one thing.
10:21
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And the other big thing that the ministry also has to take responsibility for which we are
10:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
trying to sift.
10:27
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
The reason why the MS team is brought in now is to make sure that that capacity we
10:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
should have been talking about.
10:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Training people who,
10:34
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
you know,
10:35
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in the end, because we are training individuals and not training systems.
10:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Because when you train emails here...
10:41
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I'm not saying that you are training,
10:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
you are not training individuals,
10:43
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
but you are training a capacity,
10:45
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
you are training a group of people that whoever goes,
10:48
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
if Wuri or Ablanjai end up moving away from here,
10:51
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the next day you'll have other people that are qualified in IT who can continue and take over.
10:55
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And that's one thing that we are trying to rectify from that initial problem that we've said.
10:59
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So this is not an issue of who did what and where did we do wrong.
11:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So the idea is how can we now regulate this island Gambia to
11:06
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
make sure that we are able to support them.
11:08
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and one thing one assumption that i also want us to to to to
11:13
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
to clarify is that um as a ministry i know you know island
11:18
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
gambia you are very much experienced you are very much you have good expertise in
11:22
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
bringing this this platform but it is the ministry that has its own needs it knows its own pains
11:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and knows exactly what it means so where whether
11:30
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we invite you or we don't we seek your consent it's not supposed to be quite a
11:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
question
11:35
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So the point in question is,
11:37
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
at the moment,
11:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
can we as a ministry leverage tools that has been said that belongs to the ministry to solve this
11:42
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
problem?
11:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So that is the question that we need to respond.
11:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
If in the case that it is true that the island Gambia is definitely,
11:49
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
everybody here can say that it has potential to do,
11:53
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
at least it's a better starting point that anyone could have,
11:56
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
because it's already something that we have invested in,
11:58
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
something that they've already been capacitated in,
12:00
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and the amount of capacity that we might need to build would not be asked.
12:04
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
well that point needs to be clear and that is why i was asking exactly
12:08
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
what does the military rule and when it comes to the platform issue that
12:13
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
misappears vps that's one point that we need to discuss because
12:17
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the offline version is integral
12:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in this implementation if i'm going to use the island so if
12:24
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
they say that the island gambia platform with all the effort and everything that was done is
12:28
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
limited to the online version then that means all the implementation that we are
12:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
going to do will be landing in accessibility to many of the children that will be in
12:36
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
this course so
12:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
One way to go is to negotiate with them to see if they are willing to transfer that
12:43
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
ownership to the ministry so that we can run
12:47
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
that or to see if we can build up collaboration around that.
12:49
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
But one thing that I would advise from a technical perspective is
12:53
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
to continuously have a hoop to use that offline version as
12:58
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
a hoop to continue the collaboration with the ministry for the next 10 -15 years.
13:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Because in the next two,
13:03
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
three years, like any platform,
13:05
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
there should be a way out.
13:06
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
In the MOU,
13:06
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
there should always be an agreement to say,
13:10
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
at the end,
13:10
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
A, B,
13:11
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
C, and D needs to be transferred,
13:12
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and then you'll be free to go on your own.
13:14
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Otherwise, we will continue to rely on the service.
13:17
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And any day that they cease to exist because they have moved away,
13:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
because they have something better to do,
13:21
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we might not be able to continue the implementation.
13:24
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So that is the kind of dependency that we are a little bit concerned
13:29
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
about.
13:29
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Let me move on to this.
13:31
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I just thought that I would say that.
13:33
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Okay.
13:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Let me say something
13:47
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
before I leave the room and come back.
13:50
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I've
13:54
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
listened and heard you.
13:55
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
First,
13:58
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I want to start with the movement of people in
14:02
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the science directories.
14:05
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Naturally,
14:09
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
public service
14:14
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
requires that people move around.
14:16
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So it will be difficult to
14:20
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
have permanent officers.
14:22
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
all the way to retirement.
14:24
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So we should get that understood.
14:28
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
However,
14:30
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the leadership in terms of technology,
14:33
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
science and technology,
14:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
lies under the direction of science and technology.
14:38
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
But the operations,
14:42
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
head of operations in terms of ICT and all
14:46
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
that is going to be deployed will be managed
14:50
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and headed by INIS.
14:52
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
That's the reason why we have the two sets here.
14:56
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
The leadership, like I said, is with science and technology.
15:00
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
But the hands -on in terms of
15:04
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
technology and ICT will be headed by EMIS.
15:08
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Not to say that personnel from Science
15:13
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and Technology will not be involved.
15:15
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
No, that's not what we are saying.
15:16
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
In fact,
15:17
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
they are heading leadership,
15:18
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
like I said.
15:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I mentioned that to my colleague the other day,
15:22
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
that that will not change.
15:25
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And at management level,
15:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we also have someone who is overseeing them,
15:29
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
but they will be heading there.
15:30
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So that we get that understood from the very beginning here.
15:34
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
There's no duplication.
15:36
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Operations,
15:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
head of operations is the image team.
15:42
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And like Dr.
15:43
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Jaro has said,
15:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we're going to train all of
15:48
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
them, or many of them,
15:51
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
for the purpose of continuity.
15:53
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
This image team has been here since 1816.
15:56
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
They are still here.
15:57
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Individuals have come and gone,
16:01
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
but the structure,
16:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the system is still there.
16:03
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
That's what we want as a ministry.
16:06
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And it's the same for this thing we are discussing.
16:09
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Now,
16:11
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the ministry wants a one -stop shop.
16:14
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I think we have spent resources in
16:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
developing platforms,
16:20
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in engaging in some approaches and initiatives.
16:25
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And we don't think we'll continue doing that year in,
16:27
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
year out.
16:28
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Today we initiate,
16:30
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
we take him as a platform,
16:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the next year he'll take me as a platform.
16:33
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We want to consolidate all of that to one programmable
16:38
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
platform that will speak and respond to the needs of
16:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the ministry.
16:43
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
When you need something scientifically,
16:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
technologically...
16:50
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
human resource financially,
16:52
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
you should be able to get it from that platform,
16:55
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
not to be knocking at different doors.
16:58
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
That's the kind of thing.
16:59
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And what
17:03
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I recall fully,
17:05
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
one of the reasons behind engaging
17:09
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Fusion Mobile was majorly,
17:13
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
majorly on the offline platform.
17:16
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Because when the COVID hits,
17:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
unfortunately,
17:21
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I am a...
17:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Let me not use that to describe myself.
17:29
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I came in when the COVID just started here and
17:34
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I remember fully what the needs are and why we engage.
17:37
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
It was difficult to deliver lessons to
17:41
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
students in a classroom like this.
17:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So how do you do that?
17:45
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
You couldn't have said,
17:48
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
okay, we'll do that online when there were no online
17:52
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
facilities.
17:54
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in the country,
17:55
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
talk less of in the ministry,
17:56
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
where we have our schools in the most remote places
18:00
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
in the country.
18:01
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So the alternative and the best option at the time was
18:06
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
to ensure that we also provide offline,
18:09
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
majorly.
18:10
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And I'm sure you'll recall when we provided the SD
18:14
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
cards, among others,
18:15
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
so that people could use them on their phones,
18:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
on any gadget,
18:20
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
with or without internet.
18:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Just as a request,
18:27
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
so that we all understand.
18:29
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So that is a precondition on
18:33
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
the engagement.
18:34
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And bringing
18:39
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
it in so that we know our departure point as a group.
18:42
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Because the ministry really has spent some resources and
18:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
time on this.
18:47
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And by today we should not be even sitting here and talking about this.
18:51
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
We should be up and running to ensure that at least three
18:55
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
quarters of the student population
18:58
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
are able to interact with teaching and learning materials without
19:02
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
difficulty or without depending on internet
19:06
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
connectivity.
19:07
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So
19:11
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I want that as a basis of your engagement.
19:15
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I'm attending another meeting briefly here,
19:18
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
but I'll be back.
19:19
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
But the Honourable Minister has engaged with Fusion
19:25
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Mobile.
19:26
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
The Honourable Minister has engaged with also LM.
19:30
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And I think her direction was clear.
19:32
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And all of us made a commitment in
19:37
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
those meetings that we are going to come together
19:41
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
and try to see where he's limited.
19:44
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I supplement him.
19:46
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Where I'm limited,
19:47
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
he reinforces me.
19:49
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
And we become one force rather than two divided forces.
19:55
S…
Speaker 2 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
So I just want to leave that with you before I join you back.
19:59
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Yes,
20:00
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
sorry.
20:01
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Apologies.
20:02
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Before you leave.
20:03
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
Again,
20:04
S…
Speaker 1 (Meeting with the ministry 2)
I ask this question.
