Good observation Barracks. It is frustrating when we claim to be making policies and don't get any headway. Can the bureaucrats enlighten us why we are stuck in a game of musical chairs? Regards Mwendwa Kivuva 0722402248 On 27/03/2010, Barrack Otieno <otieno.barrack@gmail.com> wrote:
Listers,
I have been following discussions on this list that seem to be touching on the above mentioned subject. We seem to be spending large sums on meetings strategizing and restrategizing however are we really making any headway? at this point in time we are still required to "fill in some forms" whenever we seek government services is this e-government? we are now talking about shared services i thought e-government implemented a project that networked most government offices, however you have to travel physically to offices to get services, at times we confuse the public with ICT jargon what the public needs is efficiency and effectiveness in service provision. ICT4D on the other hand has been infiltrated by commercial interests, i wonder what should prevail when "commercial" and "public" interests meet, probably we should spend more money on change management, capacity building and awareness campaigns as opposed to this "strategy meetings" which will only lead to analysis paralysis
My thoughts
