Liberian IT Expert Urges Digital Makeover in order to unlock Liberia’s Potential
Monrovia, Liberia – Isaac P. Korboi, an IT professional at the Liberia Maritime Authority, has written to President Joseph Nyuma Boakai, Sr., highlighting the need to redefine Liberia’s image online.
In the letter, Korboi notes that despite Liberia’s progress in recent years, including successful elections and a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council, the country’s online presence is dominated by outdated narratives about its civil war.
Korboi appeals to the President to establish a technical team to work with Google and improve Liberia’s digital presence, ensuring that accurate and positive information about the country is available online.
The letter emphasizes that a strong online image is crucial for attracting foreign investment and boosting Liberia’s economy.
Korboi believes that with the right digital strategy, Liberia can showcase its progress and attract new opportunities.
