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

Thu Aug 4 11:32:44 EAT 2011

Dr.Ndemo,

What is causing the delay and what can be done about it? It is true not all
projects can be pushed at the same time but as someone else in this list ( I
think Kanja) asked, is there any lobbying needed?

> 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
