[kictanet] ICT/BPO Marketing Strategy

[Wambui Wakarema]

BPO will not take me to heaven, but is a pillar of Vision 2030 and is an industry that can create thousands of new jobs in Kenya. i am surprised at your flippant attitude.
 
If the ICT Board cannot deliver on this very important mandate, then Kenya risks losing out on an industry that can be a very large revenue generator for this country. Our competitors, like South Africa, Mauritius, India, Egypt, are working overtime to position themselves to the markets out there. If Kenya doesnt position itself at this time, we shall lose out.
 
Richard Mwangi's challenges (whichever they were) are besides the point. Kenya needs to put in much effort if this industry is to become a force to reckon with.

Wambui,

....without defending the ICTBoard (am trying to look for their ToRs before
passing judgement), I can only observe that you seem to be single-minded and
persistent on this BPO thing...

my general and non-ICT advice is that keep your eyes open - if BPO wont take
you to heaven, am sure something else you maybe refusing to see will. God (or is
it the ICTBoard?) may have shut the BPO door for you, but just look around and
you will probably see many other opportunities.

Richard of richard at northwestoffshore.com, a BPO company who is on this list had
similar challenges and he did manage to work around them. Reach him out in case
he prefers to keep his silence on the list. 

walu.
