Still storing documents the old fashioned way

Jun 16, 2022 Letters

Dear Editor,

The backward thinking of public officials never cease to amaze. In this twenty-first century MoH is storing documents the old fashioned way, from cardboard boxes to plastic containers (KN June 15), and from all indications this was a positive move.
The difficulty, as related, of locating pertinent and relevant documents did not prevail upon the officials that this method of storage was useless, impractical, pointless and just plain unworkable.
It is unbelievable that ministries aren’t, from all appearances, fully computerised with the relevant programmes to aid and assist
It is high time that government ministries which expend billions of dollars and which accountability is paramount, move to have records, documents and information digitised for ease of reference and quick retrieval. It is not a luxury but a necessity in this modern age.
