ISTANBUL, Oct. 4 (Xinhua) -- E-commerce and drone technology are seen as fresh impetus to the world's postal sector, as a Universal Postal Congress underway here has been exploring the best means to face the fierce competition.
Transportation ministers from 50 countries met on Tuesday in Istanbul, determining e-commerce and unmanned delivery by air to be the new hope for a sector beset by growing influence of new technologies and the internet.
The ministers mainly focused on how the postal service in each country can better serve the nations and citizens in a rapidly changing world and help grow the economy and drive development.
"The criteria of success in the 21st century are renewal and innovation," said Ahmet Arslan, Turkey's minister of transport, maritime and communication. "It is unavoidable that the postal sector follows."
"The postal sector has pledged to realize the dreams of entrepreneurs who are eager to sail in the sea of e-commerce," the minister added.
Singapore's national postal service drew the attention of the congress, as it has managed to increase sales despite decreasing postal operations.
The Singaporean service, by moving toward e-commerce, is now in a position to dominate the entire Asia, noted the magazine published by the Turkish Postal Service (PTT).
The ministerial meeting of the postal congress laid significant importance on and discussed the ways to improve services to rural areas.
"The postal sector is dedicated to easing the lives of those in the most deserted places of the world who could only communicate with the rest of the world via posts," Minister Arslan said.
"We see that at times post offices are the only points of connection between small settlements and civilization," said Rashid Ismailov, Russia's deputy minister of telecom and mass communications.
He called for the global postal sector to reach the widest segment possible.
Sector representatives agreed that deliveries with drones in rural areas will be much easier than the conventional means.
How to better approach those living in apartments in crowded cities remains unclear, however.
Experts predicted that as the drone technology is widely adopted in ten years, the delivery costs will be reduced by half, according to the PTT magazine.
The PTT has been preparing to launch its own drone project in the very near future, the company's head Kenan Bozgeyik announced recently.

Some 2,000 delegates from 192 UPU member nations are participating in the current congress, a quadrennial event.
