In some areas there is a reluctance to declare the numbers of women, while in others, small children are not considered as "persons" that should be counted;. There may also be varying practices regarding the inclusion or exclusion of persons who have originated in another village or tribal group, or of persons who have left the particular group but are still loosely associated with it. (...) Improvement of estimates based on non-censal counts by full utilization of existing knowledge
In a number of countries, non-censalcounting pro- cedures may be' in operation though they have never been utilized for population estimates. (...) The utilization of such knowledge may help greatly in improving the accuracy of multipliers.

Twenty-eight percent of nonpoor families reported having access to a personal computer at home, while only 7 percent of persons in poor families and 4 percent of those in AFDC families had ac- cess to a personal computer.
(...) The poor were more than four times as likely to have their utilities cut off, while AFDC families were over five times as likely as nonpoor persons. (...) Similarly, a much higher percentage of persons in poor families (27 percent) faced two or more deprivations compared with only 3 percent of persons in all nonpoor families.

Recognition of prior learning
Conflict and violence often force people to leave their home and move to another place where their skills and qualifications might not be immediately recognized or where they often lack a network that could facilitate their job search. A persons’ skills cannot be utilized, if the learning and qualifications achieved before moving are not recognized elsewhere.

Relevance of Fixed Mobile Convergence for NGN Global Perspective(Cont.)
l Once every subscriber is identified by a unique personal identity, which is not associated to the fixed port of the switch or geographical location, will provide an unique opportunity to launch really meaningful e-governance like application.
l These useful applications which would be available to users only after necessary authentication of personal identity would drive the telecom service penetration to the masses.
l Change from fixed terminal equipment(FTE) to sharable Fixed Access Point(FAP) would lead to significant increase of utilization, leading to a huge saving on access network infrastructure cost.
l By using intelligent billing and customer care mechanism, new business model will emerge in which there will be local agencies/ small local entrepreneur, finally lead the tele-density penetration process.
l Cost effective Multi-utility devices for Personal Information, Communication & Entertainment would further drive the penetration in masses.

Access Methodology Leading to FMC architecture as Integral part of Global NGN
l End user terminal will be “mobile” irrespective of the network( mobile or fixed) it is connected to.
l If telecom facility is meaningfully available to all citizens(rich & poor) and is main instrument for economic growth and the e- governance, traffic generation would be huge. (...) However, it can be expected to meet all the needs of subscribers in mobile mode.
l Network should be developed such that whenever mobile user becomes stationary or near stationary, wide area Radio spectrum (access mechanism for mobile networks) is released for the use of other mobile users and the user is seamlessly transferred to the fixed network access.

Access Methodology Leading to FMC architecture as Integral part of Global NGN
(Contd.)
l The seamless transfer mechanism could be by the same mobile terminal that switches over to Wireless Personal Area Network (W-PAN) based access networks spectrum band ( Bluetooth or 802.11x based) connected(wirelessly) with a Fixed Access Point(FAP), to get the required service through Fixed network.
l It further provides an opportunity to have yet another type of globally standardized cost effective mobile terminals based on solely Bluetooth or like technology, to meet the developing nations needs.
l Fixed network would possibly be capable of handling higher traffic, better QoS and Advanced Features for a lower CAPEX & OPEX.

International Day of Disabled Persons 2006
E-Accessibility
Access to information and communication technologies creates opportunities to everyone in society, but perhaps no-more so than for persons with disabilities. (...) Persons with disabilities are at a considerable disadvantage by not being able to access information technologies. (...) Once adopted and ratified, the International Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities will require entities ensure that persons with disabilities can access information technologies.
