00:00Now India is a special place for us. It's home to the largest communities around the world on
00:06Facebook and WhatsApp. At the core of our partnership is the commitment that Mark Zuckerberg,
00:13founder of Facebook, and I share for the all-around digital transformation
00:20of India and for serving all Indians.
00:24In the very near future, JioMart, Jio's digital newcomers platform, and WhatsApp
00:52will empower nearly 3 crore small Indian kirana shops to digitally transact with every customer
01:01in their neighborhood. This means all of you can order and get faster delivery
01:08of day-to-day items from nearby local shops.
01:12Together, our two companies will accelerate India's digital economy
01:24to empower you, to enable you, and to enrich you.
01:37Now, with a lot of communities around the world in lockdown,
01:40it's even more important now than ever that people have the tools to connect with each other
01:45and that businesses can find ways to operate online.
02:01So I want to thank Mukesh Ambani and the entire Jio team for your partnership.
02:06I think we're going to be able to build a lot of great things that people find valuable
02:11in their daily lives and, importantly, that make it easier to live and easier to do business.
02:17This is an important moment.
