Thanks Dr Ndemo 2010 was a defining moment in a number of ways that shook the ground and forced the actors to review their game plan . For some, it was a sea change which called for radical change or else the day of reckoning is near . it was not business as usual - growth in numbers was no longer the focus but revenue generation . from a supplier-centric market , 2010 heralded the consumer focus with back-end infrastructure no longer a differentiator but candidate for outsourcing. On the whole, Kenya ICT fraternity took global leadership with innovation of products and services and growth . Kenya recorded the fastest growth of broadband recording a whopping 173% , our MPESA and generally MMT became the standard bearer and our own entrepreneurs took global leadership -remember Mr James Waibochi with the Nokia award, Kenya hosting ICANN early in the year, Airtel honoured Kenya as regional base for its African operations, took leadership in migration to the digital broadcasting . At the national level, we mainstreamed ICT to become a key instrument in driving up economic growth------ . In short we are at the tipping point ---- courtesy of your foresight and vision . We still have work to do in 2011, we need to severely test whether vertical integration is tenable as it whittles the space for SMEs and check the stiff competition that is pushing out the rural access agenda ---- Listers were always on hand to offer incisive and positive suggestions to steady the trajectory if ICT development . Congratulations cheers and wishing you a merry xmas and great 2011 Muriuki Mureithi What can u do to promote world peace?
