Alex,
Sticking with your concern that ICT Board has committed to equip 300 digital villages with computers loaded with proprietary software, I regret that I have gone through the long email below and still did not find evidence or confirmation of the same. 

My earlier response thus remains.

Policy is MoICs mandate and listers will agree with me that every effort is made to receive contributions from all stakeholders including the ICT board and kictanet, to name just two. 

Information about TCIP is readily available at the board, its website, RCIP section in world bank website. I however comment you for the lengths you went to get the details.

I hope this clears all concerns about ICT boards digital villages ( Pasha Centres) implementation.

Kind regards

Ek

Eunice,

Consumer public watchdog role of public offices is called for by the ICT
Policy. 9.6 (c) "Consumers and users will be expected to participate in
ensuring continued review of Government policy in accordance with
technological and consumer trends."

I put it that Ndemo and Eunice are playing around with words to conceal and
“manage” public perception of  what they are actually implementing all while
giving lip service support to FOSS, if not using every  evidence and
opportunity they get to attempt to discredit  FOSS and its local ICT
entrepreneurs.

Ndemo and the Board actually got shs 320 million from the World Bank for
proprietary software licenses and surrounding expenses for their
projects."Licenses, the management system and the rudimentary data warehouse
are estimated at US$4 million" The World Bank required ICT policy (also on
software) to be followed. It was not followed and Ndemo's statement “What
each party (Proprietary or OSS) does should not concern policy” is thus null
and void. Why did they not also have a provision for Open Source Software on
the funding proposals?

Eunice has questioned my credibility I am therefore providing indisputable
evidence-right to reply candidly giving my defense at this public court -
interpret below document reference in this context. Excuse me for not
sending it onlist but you may also ask the World Bank, if you want.

Courtesy of US Freedom of Information Act (governs World Bank information)
on 31 July, 2008, I requested and was directed to the complete “KENYA
TRANSPARENCY & COMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT (TCIP/CIP 1)” dated 5
March, 2007.

Which I read and observed its stated terms of use: “This document has a
restricted distribution and may be used by recipients only in the
performance of their official duties. Its contents may not otherwise be
disclosed without World Bank authorization.

----excerpt-----
25.TCIP contribution to connect Government. TCIP will fund the following:
The internal LAN connections in two buildings which are shared with
government offices (NSSF and Utalii House) along with their connections to
the fiber optics network to serve five small Ministries. This is estimated
cost US$1 million.

The enterprise software licenses for government staff and the document
management system for government records will be procured and deployed in a
manner consistent with the standards and guidelines specified in the
Government’s I C T policy, along with the hardware required for storage o f
the data. Licenses, the management system and the rudimentary data warehouse
are estimated at US$4 million.

The project will also fund the software and hardware required for the IP
Platform and the Network Operations Center, also in a manner consistent with
the standards and guidelines specified in the Government’s I C T policy.
This subcomponent i s estimated at US$7 million.

Furthermore, TCIP will fund the training, change management and capacity
building which will enable the government to take full advantage o f the
internal systems and to ensure that they are professionally deployed and
maintained. Considerable resources are required, on the order o f US$4
million.

26.Leveraging other sources of finance. Other development partners have
indicated their willingness to fund the National Data Center and the
Disaster Recovery Center; it should be noted that success o f the Government
o f Kenya’s communication network is contingent on secured funding for all
elements described above.

27. T U P Component 2d - Support to the Digital Village initiative – US$lO
million TCIP will support the scaling-up of successfully piloted Digital
Village initiative. Digital villages are e-centers that provide a suite o f
services to the public via computers connected to the internet, digital
cameras, printers, fax machines and other communication infrastructure.

These services include, but are not limited to: e-mail and internet access;
e-banking (e.g., money transfer services such as Posta Pay); eGovernment
(e.g., police abstract forms, tax returns, P3 forms, and driving license
applications); e- business (e.g., franchised postal and courier services);
e-learning; e-health; e-markets (e.g., agricultural commodity pricing and
exchange); and e-monitoring *(e.g., real-time local level monitoring of
development funds and projects)*. Pilot Digital Villages are run by private
entrepreneurs who obtained training in business and information technology
from a certified program. This component will support the Government over 3
years to roll out and scale up the successfully piloted Digital Village
initiative which aims at providing internet access and e-services at the
grassroots level via public-private partnerships.

28.TCIP support to include training, a grant facility, I T support, and
internet connectivity.
The provision o f training programs in business and information technology
from a certified program will be supported by the project (US$2 million).
Prospective entrepreneurs who have obtained certification will be eligible
to apply for a Digital Village development loan from a revolving fund: the
Digital Village Fund (DVF). The project will contribute US$4 million to the
Government funded DVF over a three year period in 3 installments. Although
initially envisaged as a grant facility, the DVF could be structured as a
revolving fund (the funds allocated to each entrepreneur would be repayable
into the DVF over a 3 year period). These funds received by the
entrepreneurs will be used to finance set-up costs and the required
infrastructure (computers, printers, software etc). The grant facility will
be managed by the ICT Board Grant Manager and will follow the governance and
disbursement mechanisms set in the Grants Operational Manual (the manual
will be formulated as part o f the technical assistance activity specified
in l(c) above). Over the first 3 years the project will support the
provision o f IT support to Digital Villages (US$2 million) and finance
internet connectivity (US$2 million) which are critical to support the
incubation o f the initiative and ensure sustainability. Overall it i s
expected this project component will support the establishment of 300
Digital Villages over a 3 year period.

Conclusions:

1.Digital Villages funding need not be 'loans' to the entrepreneurs since as
'grants' was provided for. What was the rationale used by the ICT board to
decide all Digital Villages funds should be loaned to the entrepreneurs and
persons with disabilities? (In as much as it was also provided for)

2. We appreciate the power of Freedom of Information law.

3. I highly doubt Dr. Ndemo's commitment to our Freedom of Information law
legislation.

4.It is not proper for the PS to lay claim on “A good policy levels the play
ground.”

5.'Problem solving postponement' routine while the PPDA, 2005 law is in
place? “That is why we need the procurement rules change to give everybody
an equal chance.” is a mere 'perception management' path/decoy.

6.Elsewhere, we strongly differ on ethics as regards Public Office use to
promote private interests and own gain. The PS now reportedly appears
Safaricom (private mobico) television commercials and obviously “he received
something.” He responds saying that he sees nothing wrong with that,
“apologies for what?” he asks.

7.If you want to know what local technical community feels of the current
ICT leadership in government, a local mailing member recently wrote “Ideas
and issues should be floated regularly and resoundingly so that at the end
of the day there are no excuses why in some countries you can receive almost
all services online while here we fondly believe 'download and print' is
e-government.

8.Perhaps the 2006 ICT Policy may have erred in professing Kenya had
automagically found High Level ICT leadership and calling for it to be
“protected” . Previous ICT Policy drafts lamented absence of high level
leadership.

9.Processes and leaderships that suppress (irrepressible) truths only serve
to entrench public resentment of government culminating to disasters like
early last year's. We should work hard to avoid their repeat..

Above document refers to 300 digital villages and up until Eunice's message
the ICT Board training materials developed were proprietary software-base,
none were on FOSS.

I hope for specific responses to all above issues raised.
