Daktari, Thank you for setting the ball rolling, not sure i saw the document as well it must have been hijacked. A town hall meeting is a welcome idea i second it, Kippra felt sufficiently philanthropic before the last town hall meeting i wonder whether they can double their offer during this easter season, bwn Magolo can we count on you. Walu can set the agenda. Regards On Sun, Apr 4, 2010 at 7:28 PM, Solomon Mburu Kamau <solo.mburu@gmail.com> wrote:

Barrack, Several posts have come by on the role of ICT and I think it will be wise if we sorted this in a town hall meeting similar to one we had on Malili. Honestly it feels as though some Neanderthal decided to create these agencies without putting some thought to it. Criticisms are good only when you point out where there are gaps.
The other day I posted a policy proposal for comments but only one person did respond. What it means then is that this forum ni ya kuchongoana tu.
Dakitari, with due respect, would you mind resending the policy proposals as a new thread so that interested parties may respond? If sent within this thread, I'm afraid they'll be swallowed along the way.
Which really is unfortunate. I have four other policy proposals that I really think should push through then arouse sufficient interest from the membership here.
I also think you should send them so that we react to the contents!
Ndemo.
This is truly "Jicho Pevu", i think some answers to this questions are very much in order as we celebrate Easter, can someone provide us with a list of all agencies involved in ICTs and ICT4D so that we can do some tooth comb analysis, i saw a post from Paul on what the board has achieved early this year, that was very much in order we need something from NCS as well plus any other agencies.
Regards

Hi, I rest my case on this issue, the ICT Board is a monolith, Try reading this... (pdf file), as I feared it is mandated to do anything and everything under the sun that could be called ICT which includes your microwave oven and copier. Functions of Kenya ICT Board The core functions of Kenya ICT Board as documented in the Kenya Gazette Legal Notice No 26 of the May 2007: • To advice the government on all relevant matters pertaining to development, coordination (remember the PM post) and promotion of ICT industries in the country. • Promote both locally and internationally the opportunities for investments in ICT technology • Facilitate and manage ICT industrial incubation parks and technology parks together with associated facilities on sites, estates and land. • Partner with agents within and without the country to carry out such functions as it may consider necessary. • To transform and empower society through deployment and use of ICTs. • Carry out any other activity to promote and develop ICT products and services. Have a restful Easter as we await the limited range 4G, yes you guessed it I still have a 3G issue and I am in Nairobi. Regards

Man is a gregarious animal and enjoys agreement as cows will graze all the same way to the side of a hill!

It is better to die in dignity than in the ignomity of ambiguous generosity!
