Central America is waking up to the reality that it can no longer continue to dodge the need to invest in education. Illiteracy and educational poverty are some of the punishments for population of an economy that is based on knowledge.
Craig Barrett, president of Intel, said at the the First Innovation Congress of the Digital Government that was held in the city of San Jose "that a successful country is one that has intelligent people because it constantly invests in education improvement (...) brilliant people and ideas attract more companies to the country, and an intelligent government guarantees conditions that are ideal for companies to invest in its workers and territory."
