I work for a sector which would greatly benefit and we are waiting for the ICT Park with ‘baited’ breath. I believe this idea is also open to the private sector, I am trying to understand why Mr. Liko thinks it is not the best use of government funds, could you kindly throw some light into this view. And the location, somewhere in the Arthi plains? What sucks about it? What would be a better location. I feel like your comments left those of us who are used to criticism  followed by suggestions hanging. Some way forward suggestions please.

 

Merry Christmas!

It is interesting what you find when searching the Internet, we seriously need to add some information on the web.

We are unable to sort out a basic issue like procurement of land for the ICT Park, look at the following article on what our neighbour Uganda are doing.  Its time we stopped thinking that the whole world is waiting for us to clean our act, others are moving on.
