Seriously, can Robert join the PCK as a Director on the Board even before the top post is made available? Am sure the appointment will require Parliamentary approval now. Yes? No? On Jul 8, 2011 11:14 AM, "robert yawe" <robertyawe@yahoo.co.uk> wrote:
Hi,
The mandate of PCK clearly indicates that they understand and apply the requirements of Universal Access more than any other player such as the deliver of a letter, equivalent to 21 SMS messages, anywhere in the country for only 35/-.
If we had all the post offices linked via the National FibrOptic cable it would would provide an instant opportunity for rural data by installing 4G base stations at each of the 700 post offices initially providing connectivity to the schools, hospitals and health centres within the vicinity. Show me any other player who can achieve such a roll out with such low overheads?
The more I thing of the untapped potential of PCK the more my head aches.

Posta is the "public postal licensee" and the official universal service provider for Kenya. As such, Posta must provide the "consistent supply of basic quality postal services [including reserved services and postal financial services] at affordable prices at all points in the country."

Hello All,
Robert.. this is what I would like PCK to embark on.
We have to move away from the PO Box system where a subscriber rents a box to receive and send mail. Mail should be delivered to a physical / geographical registered address. The Metropolitan ministry recently emabarked on a plan to tag physical addresses with numbers and street names to geographical addresses and PCK could merge those with their own Postal Codes and deliver mail as opposed to having people collect it physically at the post office:
