[kictanet] Kenya ranked high globally in eGovernment

Tue Sep 16 10:36:18 EAT 2014

I always ask myself when I read these headlines, government offices may be connected e-wise, but are the people connected? 

Are our own government officials switched on to offer e-government or are they still doing things analogue.

What of citizens? Are they on e-gov?

Happy belated birthday Ali.

Additional lessons can be learnt from Estonia.

Read: Lessons from the World's Most Tech-Savvy Government - http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2014/01/lessons-from-the-worlds-most-tech-savvy-government/283341/?single_page=true 

Then check out the Estonia E-government portal, and more so the services section - https://www.eesti.ee/eng/start 

Our people from E-government should get in touch and learn / adopt a similar system.

Happy Birthday Ali,

This is good news. I hope the government continues engaging
stakeholders as has been the case in the last ten years, this will
help in greater adoption of this electronic services. I was sad last
week when i could not get a critical government service because the
relevant government website had been hacked. This are issues that can
be addressed collaboratively. We are what we are because a couple of
years ago we embraced the multi-stakeholder model and worked together
and this is the same spirit we should maintain.

Best Regards
