MediaFx Opinion 💡

From people’s perspective: this isn’t just fancy deals, it’s about realising digital dreams of AP youth. It lowers barriers for everyday creators—street dancers, local cooks, students with passion—to grow and earn. State partnership with global tech giants means big resources redirected to the working class youth. That’s empowerment, equality, and fair access to opportunity. Solid step for inclusive growth!
