All,
Matters of representation still remain an issue of concern in Kenya. Mps mis-represent the constituents, people comments are not fully represented in the ongoing discussions; i.e. KCA among others,
I find today's Business Daily story "ICT sector rejoices as new law opens up e-commerce"(pp.7) in the spirit of Section 46A (d) "promote diversity and plurality of views for a competitive marketplace of ideas" We hope and look forward reading to as many different views of this Act as possible, from all media outlets.
Its evident that ONLY Nairobians can tell at least what is happening as reception of even radio broadcasting stations in most parts of the Country is poor, this is one of the things the officials at the Media councill should also address. This still questions on representation.
Can we get to working?????????
It may please you to read Part VIII �u Universal Service Fund, Section (118); (1) There is hereby established a fund to be known as the Universal Service Fund which shall be managed and administered by the Commission. (2) The object and the purpose of the Fund shall be to support widespread access to, support capacity building and promote innovation in information and communications technology services. (3) There shall be a universal service levy (in this Part referred to as the "levy") that shall be charged by the Commission on the licensees under this Act for purposes of the Universal Service Fund. ----- particularly like (2) for the far-flung, unconnected consumers. Fund also means that youthful ICT innovators lacking capital to deliver their solutions to the marketplace now qualify for funding from new CCK-managed USF;) Regards, Alex
