This may be somewhat OT - but 
1) its a Kenyan blog (ergo content - no good content) 
2) it touches on how we sometimes view these "development" reports

Definitely worth a read (and a good laugh for Monday).

Walubengo,
They have used an inefficient model.  Generally our incomes are understated since more than 85% of the workforce is in the informal sector.  There is a better methodology of estimating incomes.

I think you need to pay attention on our open access policies on Broadband.  The entire world is watching us to see the outcome.  Once in place I would hope. There will be greater competition and the markets will decide.

Ndemo.
