In my previous experience at Kictanet, we would call a stakeholder meeting and discuss this opportunity and agree on a way forward. I doubt we will pass legislation to force companies on to .ke but there are several things we can do to gain more use of .ke.  Over to you - KICTANET or KENIC

That article is misleading. The registry price for KE has been $6.5 for nearly two years now. Probably more.

There is also no law that will requires a new company to have a post office box, or a telkom Kenya phone number, or even a twitter account. We can however give incentives, and continue selling the brand Ke, which the population have come to love after the great strategy execution by the current KENIC board and staff.

Also a schizophrenic read. Later it is acknowledged that they know they should show the value of a .ke domain, but then take on this approach, to tick off metrics and rise up in rankings or what?

Absolutely baffling.

Is the aim of this exercise the registration or the usage?
