[kictanet] ICT cabinet secretary vetting proceedings

[Muriuki Mureithi]

Hi Listers 

Anyone knows how I can access  a recording of the ICT cabinet secretary vetting  yesterday? 

Was not able to watch  the whole session  but in the short time I recall   him touching in key touch points on universal access , cyber terrorism ,  security of ICT infrastructure  as a critical infrastructure , broadband. Sessional paper   and konza among others . He was certainly well prepared  to set an agenda for the sector and very passionate in  elucidating his vision . One other thing I noted, is his appreciation of the work done by Dr Ndemo to elevate the ICT to a key national agenda 

 

Walu – any idea of a link to the vetting proceedings?

Cheers 

MM

Just wondering,

In the likely departure of both PS Ndemo and CEO Paul Kukubo, I wonder how much TTL (time to live) there is for our  https://opendata.go.ke/ initiative.

Today, as he heads to Austin, Texas, for a Middle Class Jobs and Opportunity Tour <http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2013/05/08/president-obama-headed-austin-heres-why> , President Obama signed an Executive Order <http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2013/05/09/executive-order-making-open-and-machine-readable-new-default-government->  directing historic steps to make government-held data more accessible to the public and to entrepreneurs and others as fuel for innovation and economic growth. The Executive Order declares that information is a valuable resource and strategic asset for the Nation. We couldn’t agree more.
