@Mburu, i would have thought govt stakeholder is already present thro the Regulator and i would hesitate or avoid to add more govt seats in KENIC. I know academics would say regulator and govt are different but in our emerging democracies there is little or no difference in practice. But perhaps CCK the regulator intends to relinquish its role on the Kenic board in line with the fact that they r to regulate the domain space and hence they should step out of running or managing the same space. In that case Govt thro the Ministry would be a welcome board member...rather than a dominant one as it were. walu. ------------------------------ On Tue, Aug 14, 2012 8:03 AM AST (Arabian) Solomon Mbũrũ Kamau wrote:

This is timely, because it will help solve the teething problems at KENIC.
