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

Wed Aug 3 22:32:54 EAT 2011

Edwin,
Application of ICT in the Transport sector will eliminate lots of
corruption.  First it will give power to mwananchi since via sms you can
check if a Matatu has insurance, Road license etc.  You can know how mwny
traffic offences it has.  We are still working on this but a little slow
that we expected.  It is not easy to push all these projects but we are
making progress.

Regards

Ndemo.

> Gilda,
> This is easy.  When I talked of end to end government, it means we shall
> have a Public Key Infrastructure in place and intergrated registration
> system.  From birth, smart ID, death permits to KRA all will be
> intergrated.
> This will eliminate all those vote when they are dead.
>
> Digitalization of all registries will create traceability at all levels.
> See
> what has happened at Company Registry.  Revenue is up from 30 m to 80 m.
> You will no longer have temporally registered companies with unknown
> directors as it happened with Anglo Leasing.
>
> Open data means that you will track public expenditure to the last
> shilling.
> You will for example know what I have been paid and for what purpose.  Of
> course I also talked about e-procurement and judiciary.
>
> With these measures we shall have dealt with 70% of corruption and begin
> to
> restore trust in government.  After this you can start dealing with the
> culture which accounts for 30% of corruption.  People must see justice and
> fairness before you change systems.  Change is all about trust.
>
> We are all inherently corrupt and we are at a stage we can deal with the
> desease once and for all.  The time is now and we must keep hope alive.
