[kictanet] Bitange for President? Driving Knowledge Economy? OnlineInterview with PS Ndemo

Wed Aug 3 12:27:22 EAT 2011

Edwin,
In my earlier post I answered this when I said that we shall outsource
much of public sector services to improve on efficiency and governance. 
On the International, we shall make sure that we have cheap office space
in Konza within three years so that we can effectively compete.

Regards

Ndemo.

>> Kanja,
>> Affordable Health will be an outcome of the strategies that I have laid
>> here. This is how it will work.
>>
>> Infrastructure in my strategy mean provision of some of the promises
>> made
>> in the constitution including housing. We shall design eco houses in the
>> range of Ksh. 100,000 and start implementation from Northern Kenya where
>> our citizens are literallty sleeping outside. From the census, there are
>> about 200,000 households here. These homes will be in urban set up where
>> we shall supply all utilities. Through incentives, encourage other
>> investments such as solar energy, retail stores, dried beef industry,
>> packaged camel and cow milk etc.
>>
>> Every person will have a smart ID which will be used in all transactions
>> (Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for end to end government). Through the
>> realigned policy the Government will no longer be involved in releif
>> food
>> supply (they have never been good at this world over). Assistance to
>> those who will not have food will be provided in voucher form through
>> the
>> smart ID. They will then redeem their points at the retail store (Uchumi
>> possibly)and purchase the food of their choice.
>>
>> Since the people will have better housing with utilities and food of
>> their
>> choice, health problems will be minimized thus reallocating funds from
>> curative to preventive health care. This is why I say Affordable health
>> is an outcome of dealing with other related variables.
>>
>> We have spent more than Ksh. 12 billion to mitigate against hunger in
>> Northern Kenya on an emergency. The solution I propose will cost Ksh. 40
>> billion but you will never here of hunger or feel the shame of being
>> Kenyan again. You recall we can recover the same amount through
>> e-procurement. Other savings will be utilized to scale up improved
>> livelihood for all Kenyans.
>>
>> In other parts of the country we shall mob up the youth and take them to
>> the new mega projects of Lamu and the rail links (this is what China and
>> US did when they had a youth bulge) to build infrastructure that will
>> ensure sustained job security. The resources will come from the KKV and
>> converted to provide sustainable projects. Because of the wide spread
>> wages and economies of scale, we can now provide cheap health insurance
>> that will ensure affordable healthcare.
