Dominica's Digital Economy Thrives Thanks to Government Investments, Says Former Tourism Minister

Robert Tonge, Coordinator of the Digital Economy Unit, lauds the government's investments and enhancements in Dominica's digital infrastructure from 2017 to the present, citing it as a strategic decision that has strengthened the country's digital economy.

He emphasizes that these initiatives have not only improved the lives of citizens but have also kept Dominica's business sector competitive on a global scale.

Tonge reflects on the period prior to 2017, noting the prevalent reliance on cash transactions among citizens and businesses.

However, with the implementation of the digital infrastructure project, Dominica has modernized its digital financial landscape, providing citizens and businesses with increased convenience when conducting transactions.
