Given the rapid advancements in technology in developed countries and fast pace of globalization, it is not possible to bridge the global digital divide. Do you agree with this statement?

Answer and explanation:

I disagree. It is a fact that developing countries cannot keep the pace of developed countries when it comes to producing technological inventions because of the differences in resources - capital and knowledge. However, everyday technology is faster at the reach of people's hands regardless of where they are located in the world. It is indeed bridging the technology access developing countries have with the developing countries. It now depends on developing countries in finding out how they use that technology to improve the masses' lifestyles.
