[kictanet] Government awards laptop tender to Olive Telecom of India

[meshack emakunat]

hi 
yet there is to much hype about the process, i heard this morning on the radio that hp had quoted the lowest at 24 billion and olive had 26 billion, then they readvertised the tender and olive quoted lowest at 21 billion. in my view, its better if the tender goes to a local company rather than foreign no matter the process
