@Wambua, Thnx for the share...I plan to read through over the weekend. But just off-the-cuff, it would have been nice to see a high-level objective on Broadband Internet Affordability. Maybe a target that says currently it stands at 49% of Gross National Income (ITU data, 2002) and within 5yrs you bring it down to say 25% of the GNI. Global initiatives are targetting 5% of GNI but that would be too ambitious for us Solve the affordability problem and you solve most of the others (internet/broadband penetration, usage, contribution to GDP, etc) walu. -------------------------------------------- On Fri, 11/29/13, Wambua, Christopher <Wambua@cck.go.ke> wrote: Subject: [kictanet] CCK launches its third strategic plan To: jwalu@yahoo.com Cc: "Consumer and Public Affairs" <CPA@cck.go.ke>, "KICTAnet ICT Policy Discussions" <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> Date: Friday, November 29, 2013, 1:38 PM Listers, I would like to inform you that CCK has this morning launched its third strategic plan (2013-2018).

Thank you Wambua. This is the community engagement we always ask for, and commend you for it. I have some quick questions: 1. I wish you can separate e-commerce from Mobile money penetration. The former is trade, while the later is banking/money transfer. 2. The broadband penetration projection is too low. With NOFBI, the fixed Broadband connectivity should be something like 5% not the projected 0.5%. There should be specific strategies of taking broadband to those who need it most. Get a serious strategic partner on NOFBI, like Google and see how the rest of the operators will pull up their socks. 3. There is a drastic decrease of postal services in the last decade, how are you going to achieve penetration from the current 29,000people/postal-courier to 20,000people/postal-courier? The demand curve is going south. And without proper Postal services, how will your e-commerce strategy scale? The strategic plan is good, but I wish it was more ambitious especially in connectivity.

Listers, As much as we demonize CCK sometimes (okay, a lot...), I can't help but think that for what its worth, they at least come up with a realistic plan and set out to achieve them. Lets compare that with the rest of the ICT fields, say the ones tasked with ensuring Kenya becomes a technology powerhouse. What *realistic* plans do they have, have they been submitted here for debate previously? Yes, we do have the Kenya ICT Masterplan as listed here http://www.ict.go.ke/index.php/ict-masterplan/420-overview and I quite like *"... **Goal 2: Kenya will become the leading ICT HUB in African(sic) attracting leading global players and generating globally respected local entrepreneurship and innovation..."* But, what are our previous figures and what is the target figures to achieve it? I once blogged about it here ( http://www.a1.io/a1io_blog/local-ict-industry-the-biggest-story-of-our-lives...) and til now, I have not got any solid answer and especially so from those tasked to achieve this 'dream'.

"... Goal 2: Kenya will become the leading ICT HUB in African(sic) attracting leading global players and generating globally respected local entrepreneurship and innovation..."
But, what are our previous figures and what is the target figures to achieve it?
I once blogged about it here ( http://www.a1.io/a1io_blog/local-ict-industry-the-biggest-story-of-our-lives... ) and til now, I have not got any solid answer and especially so from those tasked to achieve this 'dream'.
P.S I might have hijacked this thread, but there is some relevance...

Thnx for the share...I plan to read through over the weekend.
But just off-the-cuff, it would have been nice to see a high-level objective on Broadband Internet Affordability. Maybe a target that says currently it stands at 49% of Gross National Income (ITU data, 2002) and within 5yrs you bring it down to say 25% of the GNI. Global initiatives are targetting 5% of GNI but that would be too ambitious for us
Solve the affordability problem and you solve most of the others (internet/broadband penetration, usage, contribution to GDP, etc)
walu.
