Programming makes life easier: Mostafa Jabbar
If one knows programming or coding then no task in the world is difficult for him. Posts, Telecommunications and Information Technology Minister Mostafa Jabbar said this while handing over prizes to the winners of a three-day programming camp for high school girls.
On Wednesday (March 30) at afternoon, the Minister handed over the prizes to 30 female students on the second day of the BD Girls Coding Residential Programming Camp organized by Eco USA and Bangladesh Open Source Network at Lalmatia Apon Udyog Foundation.
The Minister of Posts and Telecommunications congratulated the winning girls on their success in programming. At the same time, he said, you have the opportunity to learn programming as a teenager. This programming should be in the path of your life. You just have to be more discriminating with the help you render toward other people. Because, at present, any profession requires digital skills.
