Hi Ish,

You may have seen the question about what could the government do to
catalyst an "apps economy". I don't see Open Data as directly
related to an "apps economy". However, it could serve as a catalyst
for that. Open Data does not work whether there isn't a Freedom of
Information Act.

I am not sure whether to suggest having the Act as a catalyst as it
is not clear whether it is related to the internet in Mauritius. In
addition, there hasn't been any interest in that.

What is your opinion about the above?

Regards,
S. Moonesamy
