Distinguished listers,
I have read through the comments and still feel it is not yet time to
celebrate, what we have simply done in the year 2009 is to build buses
(Policies, Infrastructure , Strategies) however Kenyans are still
walking on foot and hurting their toes as a result since they havent
seen the difference this buses will make in their lives. Many gains
have been made but they still don't resonate with the common man for
instance why are accidents still maiming Kenyans whereas we can use ICT's to curb them significantly through CCTV's and other technologies (refer to Kwa Zulu Natal SA), why is the corruption index still high whereas we can use ICT's to significantly reduce corruption, why is access to treatment a challenge whereas telemedicine is a reality, why is education expensive whereas e-learning is a reality we continue to witness Petty fights among stakeholders whereas there are REAL
issues that must be addressed we need to shun this culture and
cooperate if we are to achieve more, if ICT cannot contribute to
Socio-economic liberation, then it is not worth it, for those
who were hitting hard continue with the same spirit mediocrity should
not be tolerated, for the Peacemakers, be blessed in the year 2010 and
continue with that spirit.
