Cambodian ICT Masterplan 2020
Concerns raised by the provision of second PC is the e-waster issue that unnecessary and harmful
electronic products was dumped by developed to developing nations(See Basel convention).
Therefore, while operating the refurbishment center of second hand PC, Cambodia has to operate
recycling center which collect, and recycle wasted second hand PC environment friendly.
3.5.2 Cooperation with Private Cyber-Cafe
In order to offer Internet access to Cambodian citizens who do not own PC and Internet access
at home, public access centers which equipped with network and PC are required. However,
substantial amount of budget is needed to build public access centers, therefore it is not easy to
build ICT access center by government budget. Hence, Cambodia must utilize existing facilities at
a full scale, including not only public but also private cyber cafe.
3.5.3 Accessibility for Persons with Disabilities
Final issue is the ensuring accessibility for the People with Disabilities. This issue is not an urgent
one; however, in order to achieve inclusive E-Cambodia where all Cambodian are able to access
digital information, the people with disabilities must be included as one of policy targets.
