Looks and sounds good. However, the devil always lies in the details (that statement is more cautionary than pessimistic).

Driving Knowledge Economy? OnlineInterview with PS Ndemo Kanja, Affordable Health will be an outcome of the strategies that I have laid here. This is how it will work. Infrastructure in my strategy mean provision of some of the promises made in the constitution including housing. We shall design eco houses in the range of Ksh. 100,000 and start implementation from Northern Kenya where our citizens are literallty sleeping outside. From the census, there are about 200,000 households here. These homes will be in urban set up where we shall supply all utilities. Through incentives, encourage other investments such as solar energy, retail stores, dried beef industry, packaged camel and cow milk etc. Every person will have a smart ID which will be used in all transactions (Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for end to end government). Through the realigned policy the Government will no longer be involved in releif food supply (they have never been good at this world over). Assistance to those who will not have food will be provided in voucher form through the smart ID. They will then redeem their points at the retail store (Uchumi possibly)and purchase the food of their choice. Since the people will have better housing with utilities and food of their choice, health problems will be minimized thus reallocating funds from curative to preventive health care. This is why I say Affordable health is an outcome of dealing with other related variables. We have spent more than Ksh. 12 billion to mitigate against hunger in Northern Kenya on an emergency. The solution I propose will cost Ksh. 40 billion but you will never here of hunger or feel the shame of being Kenyan again. You recall we can recover the same amount through e-procurement. Other savings will be utilized to scale up improved livelihood for all Kenyans. In other parts of the country we shall mob up the youth and take them to the new mega projects of Lamu and the rail links (this is what China and US did when they had a youth bulge) to build infrastructure that will ensure sustained job security. The resources will come from the KKV and converted to provide sustainable projects. Because of the wide spread wages and economies of scale, we can now provide cheap health insurance that will ensure affordable healthcare. Regards Ndemo.
Well done Bitange and I would like to add one more theme. Affordable health care for all. Cheers.
