"The Internet is one of the most valuable contemporary tools for linking to the world-wide community for business, education, cultural exchange, and travel. No one has a 'corner' on creativity and the Pacific Island populations should have equal footing in the cyber world where they can leverage their own, unique talents," said Dr Cerf.
His message, available on video, comes ahead of this year's PacINET, the Pacific's leading annual ICT conference organised by the Pacific Islands Chapter of the Internet Society (PICISOC).
More details are available on the PacINET PICISOC web site.
