[kictanet] .Ke Domain Costs

Fri Apr 28 20:06:49 EAT 2017

Dear Listers,

What is DRAKE's take on this? haven't seen any comment from them on this
issue.

Being a Registrars Association in Kenya was expecting maybe an explanation
on how this was arrived at.

To KeNIC what has led to the frastic change in pricing and why change only
Renewal.
