Thanks Brian, We are doing and OKN newsletter to circulate to partners involved in ICTs. It would be good for TESPOK to consider this newsletter as one of the channels.

This would add "meat" to the anecdotal input from participants. TESPOK is also considering serialising the reports in public newspapers to heighten awareness of ICTs and the importance of the policy and the work that the Ministry is doing. This should be discussed at the next KICTANet meeting. regards, Brian On 21 Jun 2005, at 09:35, Muriuki Mureithi wrote: Charles I am touched by the concern of my brother James . I believe he represents many others interested in the historical outcome at Msa. Can I suggest you make a draft on the Msa meeting - all the other members who were in msa will give inputs? I believe the meeting was historical and we need to document the event fully. If this has not been done, I suggest a structure as follows * Background and context - include opening statements , concerns and issues by the key stakeholders in the opening sessions, the historical perspective and events leading to msa * Cross cutting issues – opening statements and comments from the discussants as well as the floor * Group issues and recommendations – telecom working group, postal , cross cutting, information technology, - under each working group discuss the composition and processes briefly * Final plenary – approvals of the workshop in all the sectors , any sticking points that were unresolved * Way forward – commitments made and timelines to move to implementation of the policy We owe to posterity to document the historical process. We also have a duty to adequately brief those we represented I would be happy to prepare a report on the perspective of the telecom-working group that I chaired Happy day Muriuki Mureithi _____ From: kictanet-bounces@kictanet.or.ke [ mailto:kictanet-bounces@kictanet.or.ke <mailto:kictanet-bounces@kictanet.or.ke> ] On Behalf Of James Nguo Sent: 21 June 2005 09:07 To: 'Kenya ICT Policy - kictanet' Cc: Martin Karimi Subject: RE: [Kictanet] The Eastern Africa e-Goverment ConsultativeWorkshop28-29 June 2005 Dear ALL, Does anyone have a report on the deliberations of the Mombasa meeting.

I would appreciate if you'd email me a list of invited participants including their contacts, countries and positions so that I can use this important opportunity to conduct some interviews with stakeholders on governments' progress of e-government ICT initiatives in the region, challenges and opportunities. This time I'd like to have the list as far in advance as possible, so that I can estimate the level of effort and not miss out on any important stakeholders. I plan to invite the workshop participants to take part in the interviews and send out a questionnaire in advance for them to review and complete if possible prior to or during the workshop. Let me know if you'd like me to prepare an evaluation form for the workshop which I will administer, analyze and report back to you and CATIA. I look forward to hearing from you soon, Thanks and best regards, Maureen Wang'ati CATIA Evaluation Team ----- Original Message ----- From: To: kictanet@kictanet.or.ke <mailto:kictanet@kictanet.or.ke> Sent: Tuesday, June 14, 2005 11:05 AM Subject: [Kictanet] The Eastern Africa e-Goverment Consultative Workshop28-29 June 2005 Dear KICTANET Members, I would like to inform you that the Eastern Africa e-Government Consultative Workshop will take place on the 28-29 June 2005 at the Grand Regency Hotel.
