Hi,

Postal is becoming more and more efficient and so is KRA in so far as EMS 
deliveries are concerned meaning that the environment is becoming more enabling 
for me to make a great impact on appointment.

My son ordered a pair of SUPRA shoes (the hottest shoe in the world market 
today) from the web on the 18th of July, the shoes arrived on the 27th and I 
received an SMS alert. 

The entire process that included verification by KRA officials (a very efficient 
one at that-GPO), calculation of taxes, payment of taxes and handling charges 
took me less than 20 minutes.  In addition the parcel was intact and so were the 
contents.

Postal seems to have cleaned up the vandalism in their systems, I say this 
because the shoe I went to pick up costs over 15,000/- for an original on the 
streets of Nairobi in other words its a hot potato.

Regards

PS.  Slowly the giant is awakening, as I waited for the process to be completed 
I looked at the local shipping tariffs for EMS and found that the most expensive 
destination is Moyale at a rate of 2,500/- for a 5 kilogram parcel

Subject: [kictanet] Yawe for Post Master General - A BoD issue


Hi Listers,

While looking at the structure of PCK I noted that the PMG is a none voting 
member of the Board of Directors which introduces an interesting dilemma to me 
when I take over.  

The situation as it exists explains a lot why PCK has been used as a political 
pasture ground as the most that the holder of the PMG post can do is earn a 
salary and a few parks, he can actually do very little damage to the 
corporation.

What this indicates is that the PMG is nothing more than an over glorified 
mailbox stuffer which now means that we need to work at either making the PMG a 
voting member of the BoD or introducing a CEO position with voting rights.

There is also the  possibility of becoming appointed a board member and also PMG 
for situation of which the act is silent

Only the strong flourish in adversity.
