<DIV>Hi Walu,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>You ask what can be done to make us be <STRONG><U>exporters</U></STRONG>? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Answer</STRONG>:-Human resource development is a very fundamnetal way of making us export bandwith.We need to provide individuals(web developers) with skills and access to information,knowledge and traing that will catalyze them to think and explore on grounds of export thus enabling them to perform effectively.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Simply,let us all invest our resources to capacity building strategies.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Whats your input Alex?</DIV>

<DIV>Hi all,<BR><BR>Yesterday was the most silent deliberation I have ever had<BR>- am told it may have been caused by the excitement of the<BR>'Free PC & Cheap Internet' from LK and KDN...<BR><BR>Any I do hope today we shall have some response on the<BR>above topic which incidentally have a bearing on the<BR>long-term success or otherwise of similar 'Free PC & Cheap<BR>Internet' initiatives...the question of International vs<BR>Domestic Internet Bandwidth.<BR><BR>The Internet Study says that of the about 1G International<BR>International Bandwidth only 10% is outbound while 90% is<BR>inbound. What this mean is that kenya is a net IMPORTER of<BR>internet content. In internet economic terms we are<BR>therefore consumers rather than generators of internet<BR>content - which is a bad thing. Value is always retained<BR>by those who generate rather than just consume internet<BR>content i.e. the exporters of internet content.<BR><BR>Put in
another way, all the International bandwidth (KDN,<BR>Jamii & others) buys (imports) on our behalf implies that<BR>someone in the Northern hemisphere is getting paid for it -<BR>wouldn't it be better that KDN, Jamii & others get to sell<BR>(export) the same amount of bandwidth to consumers in the<BR>North? What can be done to get that to happen? Are the<BR>recommendations in the report sufficient to address this<BR>imbalance?<BR><BR>1 day discussion on this theme, the floor is open... <BR><BR>walu.<BR><BR><BR>__________________________________________________<BR>Do You Yahoo!?<BR>Tired of spam?
