Lizette,

Am sorry but i have to disagree with you implying that all kenyan work is shody.

There are kenyan companies and individuals doing a great job considering the resources at their disposal.

Although its true there are people doing shoddy work in some cases, we cannot rubbish everyone.

Bernard,

I agree with you, the problem is that such companies are the exception, rather than the norm... That's where the problem is.

Our transport system is a mess. Education, same thing. We lack a culture of excellence.

It's OK to deliver a project late without any consequences. It's ok to get to work late. It's OK to deliver projects late etc etc etc...

I was miffed over the weekend when a 'customer care' agent at a leading telco had the gall to dismiss me as having a non issue, when I was unable to make any calls.

Basically, in Kenya, you have to beg someone to give them money...
