[kictanet] Vision 2030: ICT and Other Sectors Converged (Day 1)

Wed Dec 21 09:38:11 EAT 2011

Robert,

Very much  my sentiments earlier on. A solid 40+ years down the line, and
very little to show for it based on the initial

blue prints we had in place..

Mr. Kibati, perhaps you may clarify this; however, I understand some of the
current infrastructure projects are based 

on design, blue-prints, maps etcetera, from decades ago when they were
initially put together but have been lying on 

the shelves gathering dust..

If this be the case, then let us bring them all out, put them on the drawing
board, re-evaluate them with the changed 

times in mind and move forward to implement them for the benefit of the
entire country..

Regards,

Harry

Hi Mugo,

I appreciate that I am coming into this discussion late but I hope you will
accommodate me by responding to the following issue:

An issue was raised by the Prime Ministry during a round table forum with
KEPSA where he mentioned that when visiting one of the Asian Tiger countries
with a delegation from Kenya he asked how they had made it to 2nd world
status in such a short time.

The response from the host was that the question is not why the Asian Tigers
made it but why Kenya did not yet they had sent a delegation to Kenya in the
late 1960's to learn how Kenya was progressing so well after independence at
which point they picked a copy of a document that we (Kenya) were using
which they used as their blue print.

>From that response, it means that we had the right agenda 40+ years ago,
where did we go wrong?

Sam,

Thank you. You are spot on. Our new website portal is the initial phase
towards a Vision 2030 dashboard which will seek to pull data from all Vision
2030 implementing agencies and synthesize to provide overall status of
Flagship projects and Vision 2030. This is work in progress but your
intervention is timely. We shall be working on a dashboard system
architecture which specifically includes integration with Open Data. We look
to commence this effort in January.

>From a Vision 2030 perspective, we will strive to be the significant
contributor to the open Data platform. If you have any technical ideas on
the Vision 2030 + Open Data integration, please forward to Emmanuel Nzai -
enzai at vision2030.go.ke.

Mr Kibati,

Thanks for being in the discussion list.  I take note of the open data
deployment as a way of relaying public information to citizens.  Also
considering that that Vision 2030 flagship projects are quite a number
spread out across the nation, how would you use ICT to inform the public on
the status of these projects which i would closely link to the open data.  

Regards

Sam Aguyo
