Bridging the Digital Divide

As Kuala Lumpur continues its development towards becoming a technologically advanced country, the problems of a digital divide between its rich and poor, along with its burgeoning e-waste problem jeopardizes this goal. SOLS Tech is an initiative set up with an aim to solve these problems through education. They also refurbish old computers to give back to those in need. Today, SOLS 24/7 and SOLS Tech founder Raj Ridvan Singh helps spread the word on the merits of disposing your e-waste efficiently and bridging the gap between the digital divide.
