ICT (telecommunications, internet, computers) allows instant access and sharing of information across the world, directly stimulating globalisation by connecting producers and markets.

Explanation

The passage explicitly states that telecommunication and internet facilities are used "to access information instantly" across countries. While ICT also helps spread services globally, the most direct stimulus to globalisation mentioned is instant information access — enabling coordination of production, trade, and communication worldwide. Options (a), (b), and (c) relate more to trade and transport, not specifically to ICT.
