Dear Listers, Am a big believer in the validity of the Konza Technocity dream. Last week I went through online arguments opposing the project and am beginning to conclude that they are about two issues :- (1) *What sectoral interventions are urgent and which are important?* *(2) Whether real estate and physical infrastructure are valid interventions in the ICT sector.* I penned down my counter arguments in an article "why would you call Konza Technocity a white elephant? <http://www.gmeltdown.com/2015/03/is-konza-technocity-white-elephant.html> ". Am curious to hear from pundits here what the current popular position on these sticky issues is..
