The bright future…without Internet
Media and Internet, Uzbekistan3 Comments
Obviosly the authorities of Uzbekistan have found another explanation to Uzbekistan’s problems and are about to announce the Internet a dangerous tool to “dehumanizeâ€? people.
Uzbekistan’s national newspaper “Halq Suzi” (The People’s Word) has an interview with the chairman of the committee for information and communication technologies of the Legislative Chamber, the lower house of the Uzbek parliament, Xurshid Dostmuhammad who said:
“Any parent warns their children against playing with bad boys, but now this “bad boyâ€? is entering their homes in the image of the Internet. Now, our innocent sons and daughters have an opportunity to be dehumanized at home even without going outsideâ€?
Would love to hear what “the innocent sons and daughters of Uzbekistan” think about all that.

What do the innocent Uzbek boys and girls about it? Well, visit one of the internet and gaming cafes and you see them hooed to the rest of the world. Why are they visitng NGOs to use the internet? Internet has been on the rise here in the country and unfortunately also one of the reasons that NGOs have to close here (due to unallowed granting of internet access like I read last week in the net) I am afraid to read those messages about the “dangerous tool to dehumanize people”. The situation here can still dis-improve.

Xurshid Do’smuhammad is the representative of the older generation and does not understand what is beneficial and what is bad. Probably, he does not know much about internet and has no time to learn computers, because he is a beaurocrat. Beaurocrats do not like everything which is progressive, because they loose submission from people. Unfortunately, many public employees of Uzbekistan are beaurocrats.
