Commenting
on the initiative of the students, the ICT Coordinator of AMECEA secretariat
said it worth judging that our society is moving forward on ICT issues. Instead
of the University spending some money to hire IT experts for this exercise students
themselves have found that they can offer their contribution to the society by
making a credible and transparent election through their ICT knowledge they
studied at the university.
