Hi Barrack - maybe you had walked out of the room briefly but it
was stated that next week's national census will be gathering
information about Internet usage in the country.

Kind Regards,
Waudo

  Many thanks to the organisers and facilitators for the great
  event, however i wasnt given a satisfactory answer regarding
  the following
  The state of digital divide in Kenya
  What the country is currently using the internet for.
  The number of internet users in the country at the moment.
  While i appreciate the fact that there are some statistics on
  the CCK website they are not up to date i wonder why this is
  the case, in the context of internet governance "how can you
  govern what you dont know?" (thinking globally acting locally)
  i am of the opinion though it is belated that some of this
  statistics could have been collected in the forthcoming
  census.
  Nonetheless i was impressed by the active participation by Hon
  Engineer Okundi and Hon Eng Rege, this is what leadership is
  all about, lest we forget my point i got this from the CCK
  website and i hope i will be answered
  Publications and Statistics
  The Commission collates industry statistics and other
  information to assist new market entrants with the basic
  information required to make commercial decisions. The data is
  also utilized by researchers, the media and other
  stakeholders.

  Dear All,
  I'm also appreciative of the organizers of the 2009 KIGF. One
  thing I acknowledged is the exchange of views and ideas which
  shows how the issue of internet governance is an important
  tool in national development.
  The organizers did a commendable job altogether!

  Man is a gregarious animal and enjoys agreement as cows will

  It is better to die in dignity than in the ignomity of
  ambiguous generosity!
