Listers, Anyone out there aware of any initiative where the private sector can give a lending hand to government to deliver quality services to its citizens? If not, is this something that can be explored? A suggestion/example I have in mind is for instance have some developers collaborate with say KPLC is putting a solution in place (integrate with whatever ERP they have in place) where electricity consumers can key in meter readings daily, weekly, or whenever they so choose. This could save the consumers quite a penny in that they are able to accurately monitor their consumption; access their itemized bills online and hopefully KPLC can lower the fuel levy that they so exorbitantly charge the consumer! It makes very little sense to go queue for 3-4hrs at their offices to sort out erroneous billing month in month out, because their meter reader decided not to do his/her work and instead submit estimates. These collaborative solutions can be extended to other government agencies so that they catch up with the rest of us in the 21st Century! Kind regards, Edwin
