Tue Sep 10 08:40:17 EAT 2019

Greetings Bwana Wambua,

We are eagerly waiting for the feedback as you promised. On another
note, is there a planned phase two for the USF Project considering the
success of phase 1?

Best regards

Barrack Otieno

  Hi Barrack, 

You have a good memory. I was flaging the issue.

The locations connected to the Internet by USF were shared by the
indefatigable Mr Wambua. However, the information on the Schools and
other amenities connected was not shared. This is what Liz is asking
about. 

Below is the information CA provided

"Grace,

Below are the  62 sub-locations that have benefited from the mobile
voice infrastructure project executed through the USF.  We shall
share the information on the beneficiary schools of the Education
Broadband Connectivity Project through our website as soon as
possible.
Wambua"

  Hi Liz,

There was an email shared on this list earlier in the year with the
details. Not sure if there is a lister who flagged it.

 This is really great.  Congratulations @ CA and the USF team.  

Could you please provide some details on the number of schools, 
public libraries, hospitals and other community service locations
connected to the Internet through USF?  Are they open to the
public?

  Hi GG, Barrack and All

Indeed. I confirm that connectivity in my counties (Kilifi and Lamu)
has tremendously improved. Credit should indeed go to CA and the last
mile service providers.

 Hi GG,

Many thanks for the Video. I wish to commend the Communications
Authority and the Service Providers for a great job in so far as
Universal Access is confirmed. Over the past week i have been to
Chawiya location (5000 feet hills in Wundanyi Taita Taveta) and
Mwatate in Taita and  was able to Watch news and entertain myself
using my smartphone a testament of how far we have connected our
country. I was amazed by the Infrastructure (roads and power) that has
been extended to the top of the hills which has really transformed
lives. The excitement in the eyes of the youth could tell it all. From
Taita i moved on to Mombasa, Kilifi and Malindi and the connectivity
is simply amazing to say the least. I have actually streamed this
videos without any buffering. In conclusion Communication Network
Coverage has greatly improved and as the DG says in the Video the
journey of 1000 steps indeed starts with one step. Well done CA, well
done service poviders.

Best Regards
