Hello. Its a great privilege to join you by video to celebrate the Year of English and IT Services in Sri Lanka. I was very excited to learn about plans for the year which have a clear focus on IT, because this initiative demonstrates that His Excellency, President Mahinda Rajapaksa, and his government recognize the extraordinary potential that information technology has to dramatically improve peoples lives in the country. Some of you may know that I now focus my full time work on the foundation. But Im still very connected and very excited about the work going on at Microsoft. As I reflect on these thirty-three years of great innovation since Microsoft was started,I am amazed at how far weve come and the many ways in which IT is transforming how people live and work all over the world and the pace of progress continues to increase. The personal computer we have today is already over a million times more powerful than the original PC that Microsoft wrote software for back in 1981. Im confident that even more dramatic changes are yet to come and that the future of technology will be far more exciting than even the past. At the same time, its also clear that large segments of the worlds population have not reaped the full benefits of technology. Only about a billion of the roughly six billion people in the world have regular access to sophisticated forms of Information Technology. IT skills lag far behind where they need to be in an increasingly competitive and globally . . .
