The Open-RAN network, which we have talked so much about, is being deployed in Palau. A space-based climate warning system is soon to be launched in Mauritius. Off-grid solar projects are actually happening in the Indo-Pacific islands,” he said.

That in itself is a powerful stabilizing factor in an uncertain and unstable world,” he said.
