FW: MEDIA RELEASE ON PROPOSED CHANGES TO COMMERCIALIZE THE '.KE' INTERNET IDENTITY
by Wambua, Christopher 02 Feb '14

02 Feb '14

Dear Listers, As earlier communicated, the Communications Authority of Kenya (CAK) would like to clarify that the proposed licensing framework does not propose the dissolution of KENIC and thus the need for a re-delegation. If anything, the proposed framework seeks to strengthen the governance of KENIC by ensuring that the Board is representative of the local Internet community. The proposed licensing framework envisages an arrangement where KENIC remains as-is (a multi-stakeholder private public partnership) but with Government represented by another entity (Kenya ICT Authority). CAK will relinquish its positions in the KENIC Board and assume a regulatory oversight role. As far as commercialization is concerned, the CAK encourages a business model that will spur the growth of the Dot KE domain name space. It will be upon the new entity to devise such strategies. With regards to the transition, the relevant processes will be followed to ensure that the transition is not only smooth but within the law. I also wish to assure listers and stakeholders in general that CAK shall take into consideration all submissions made in respect to this public consultation. For an informed discussion, we request listers, and the public in general, to go through the draft licensing framework in detail in order to appreciate its context. Best regards, Christopher Wambua Manager – Communications Consumer and Public Affairs Department Communications Commission of Kenya P.O.

Dear Mr Hussein, Thank you sir for the insights. Clearly, the answer to your question can be found in Wikipedia’s definition you have generously availed. What you didn’t address yourself to, however, is the quality of service levels, pricing, among other aspects in the case of a single-seller of an essential service. They are certainly uncompetitive and anti-consumer. Ask yourself, for instance, must KENIC’s customers in this day and age pay through a registrar who gobbles up some commission adding to the consumers’ woes? Can those security fears, if real, be addressed in a different way? Why can’t people pay online for instance: http://www.101domain.com/domain_registration_joburg.htm Fair trade and competition policy may not necessarily be universal but it is about making principles of fairness and decency mean something in the marketplace especially for the goods/services we buy. Essentially, it offers a way for all of us to identify products that meet our values – principally so we can make choices that have a positive impact to the world around us. Retaining KENIC as a single-seller where multiple-sellers can compete favourably and profitably won’t be in the consumer/KENIC’s own interest. Just imagine, for a second, that a company like Safaricom, Airtel or AccessKenya ISP has a Yahoo/Gmail address. Or put this way, which Kenyan company or individual wouldn’t die for a Dot Ke address for his or her business if they can afford? These domains uniquely define “Kenyan-ness” and a sense of patriotism – why must they be made expensive and a preserve of Ali Hussein (sorry and others) who can afford a “me.ke”? And how can they be made cheaper would be the salient question – open up the space to other sellers. Sound macro-economists will tell you, for free, that you don’t protect KENIC market share by locking competitors out especially knowing that they have been there for a while. They possibly are only exploiting less than 5% of their market potential. Imagine if all Kenya “emailers” could dump the insecure Yahoo/Gmails for a Dot Ke … that would be big business for KENIC and her competitors! As you rightly put it, the captains at KENIC must know the market thus : “3. In today's hyper competitive world there are few monopolies left.” Kind regards, Japheth Ogutu www.cofek.co.ke From: Ali Hussein [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, January 31, 2014 5:28 PM To: Consumers Federation of Kenya (COFEK) Cc: KICTAnet ICT Policy Discussions Subject: [***SPAM*** Score/Req: 07.40/5.0] Re: [kictanet] KENIC Board Statement on dot.KE Japheth How do you define a monopoly? In my opinion KeNIC is far from a monopoly. Let me just refresh ourselves here. According to Wikipedia:- <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly#cite_note-2> [Monopolies are characterized by a lack of economic <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Competition> competition to produce the <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_(economics)> good or <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_(economics)> service and a lack of viable <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitute_good> substitute goods. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly#cite_note-3> [3] The verb "monopolize" refers to the process by which a company gains the ability to raise prices or exclude competitors. In economics, a monopoly is a single seller. In law, a monopoly is a business entity that has significant market power, that is, the power to charge high prices. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly#cite_note-Orbach.26Campbell-4> [4] Although monopolies may be big businesses, size is not a characteristic of a monopoly. A small business may still have the power to raise prices in a small industry (or market). <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly#cite_note-Orbach.26Campbell-4> [4] So to put this in context. 1. If I'm unable to buy a .ke does it mean that I will not be able to have an email address, access the Internet, have a domain name? 2. Kenya Power is a monopoly that basically doesn't have a substitute here in Kenya. 3. In today's hyper competitive world there are few monopolies left. As the consumer watchdog it would auger well for COFEK to deeply understand the regulatory and competitive framework that informs the domain space in general and the ccTLD space in particular.

UK government plans switch from Microsoft Office to open source

*"Cabinet Office minister Francis Maude plans to standardise on open formats to cut costs on Office suite and break 'oligopoly' of IT suppliers"*<http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/jan/29/uk-government-plans-switc…> Maude will add: "Technical standards for document formats may not sound like the first shot in a revolution. "But be in no doubt: the adoption of compulsory standards in government threatens to break open Whitehall's lock-in to proprietary formats. In turn we will open the door for a host of other software providers." Maude will also hail changes designed to increase the number of small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) winning public sector contracts. "In the civil service there was a sense that if you hired a big multi-national, who everyone knew the name of, you'd never be fired. "We weren't just missing out on innovation, we were paying top dollar for yesterday's technology. "One great example of the potential from small businesses was when we re-tendered a hosting contract. "The incumbent big supplier bid £4m; a UK-based small business offered to do it for £60,000. "We saved taxpayers a whopping 98.5%. I don't think we can make savings of that scale everywhere but hard-working people expect us to try as hard as we possibly can."

"We also have the chance, right now, to beat other countries in the race for the next wave of high-tech manufacturing jobs. My administration has launched two hubs for high-tech manufacturing in Raleigh and Youngstown, where we’ve connected businesses to research universities that can help America lead the world in advanced technologies.

So get those bills to my desk and put more Americans back to work." "We know that the nation that goes all-in on innovation today will own the global economy tomorrow. This is an edge America cannot surrender. Federally-funded research helped lead to the ideas and inventions behind Google and smartphones. That’s why Congress should undo the damage done by last year’s cuts to basic research so we can unleash the next great American discovery – whether it’s vaccines that stay ahead of drug-resistant bacteria, or paper-thin material that’s stronger than steel. And let’s pass a patent reform bill that allows our businesses to stay focused on innovation, not costly, needless litigation."

There are three main conclusions in the report: The first is that innovation makes a significant contribution to economic growth of a country (I want to assume that this is why the so-called top economies dominate the top contributors to registered patents in the recently published statistics I shared). The second is that there are significant spillovers between countries, firms, and industries, and to a lesser extent from government-funded research (I have not been able to qualify if the our Government has had any specific focus areas for research with a targeted budget to spend). Third, that these spillovers tend to be localized, with foreign economies gaining significantly less from domestic innovation than other domestic firms. This suggests that although technological ‘catch-up’ may act to equalise productivity across countries (as we have seen with decades of "off-shore manufacturing" in China, aiding the Chinese re-verse engineering innovation), the process is likely to be slow and uncertain, and require substantial domestic innovative effort... Well, that granted; my worry continues to be the lost potential our country is subjected to due to "little focus to new invention" ; (thank you Ken for subjecting yourself to the effort of explaining to us the difference between invention and innovation!). If I was to advise: until we shall have realized close to 50% (or there about) of our annual university admissions as post-graduate students; then our efforts to be an inventive/innovative society may still be elusive. Entrepreneurs (the likes of Bill Gates or Steve Jobs, or Andrew Vitabi/Irwin Jacobs etc) only succeed in an environment thriving with brains willing to rise-up for the challenge!

To quote the many times abused aphorism, "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence". Just because there are no patents coming out of Africa it does not mean that Africans are not innovating. Many times IP from Africa is registered abroad e.g. M-Pesa is implemented in Kenya, but the IP is resident in the UK, granted the team that worked on it was British, but it's an example of a product built in Africa but whose IP is resident in the UK (possibly rightly so, I'm not debating the ethics of having the IP resident there, just pointing out that it's hailed as an African innovation but the IP isn't resident here). In other cases, people don't bother patenting the innovation that they come up with, simply because of the amount of time it takes to acquire rights or simply costs of the same.

Overall, technology is an aggregation of all existing inventions and innovations. Because of this u will also realize from the stats you shared that economies that invest much on the inventive talents become potential sources of innovation and new technologies. However, the measure of the level of patented inventions available for innovation is just one indicator that can serve as a measure of inventive output.

America has realized that innovation and patents don't only reside in inventing and creating. In the recent past process innovation has gained a lot of attention simply because America is loosing some of its competitive edge by outsourcing production entirely to Asia. This of course has other implications like China being able to copy and produce products as good or even better than the west can. I think that's possible one of the reasons that some American companies are talking production back to the Homeland. I suspect this is both an intellectual, business and political question that will dog us for years to come. The other issue about patents/innovation is what role this has in a world that is increasingly 'Opensource'. So patent registration may not be the only barometer to gauge how innovative a company/country is. We may want to aggregate more sources.
