Back in 2011,Gov decided to distribute laptops to the top performing kids in each public school. They did factor in some of the families might sell those laptops immediately, but they also provided free wifi for ALL students outside schools+unis+major transport hubs.
10 years now, every single professional coder in the country either has a friend or themselves got into IT only because of the laptop. Some families still use their decade old laptops today.
