  <p class=MsoNormal>Hi,<br>
  <br>
  From your domain name I see you should be looking at a technology park not
  the ICT park with is actually a subsector.  I would warn you not to hold
  your breath on the park as we are already into campaign mode so expect more
  short term projects with high extortion capacity, that is less than 2 years
  cycle.<br>
  <br>
  To answer the questions, the government is meant to provide an enabling
  environment and facilitation not procurement as allocation will be done like
  was done in Mau a few politically correct people will be allocated the land
  for speculation purposes.<br>
  <br>
  We are yet to see a comprehensive strategy paper on the ICTPark all we get
  are snippets, will the government lease the land at pepper cone rates or commercial
  rates, what is the time frame.  All we are asking is a detailed roadmap
  so that we know where we are heading.  I do not expect this soon
  especially since we have never seen the entire designs for the new road
  networks all we get is snippets, why?<br>
  <br>
  Athi River is too close to Nairobi and will suffer from all the short
  comings, the location needs to be further from Nairobi so that it can be
  insulated from the speculative demands.  My proposal is Nanyuki for its
  weather and adaptive administration, Mumias close to the sugar plant to
  provide reliable power supply or Isiolo.<br>
  <br>
  We need to make a clean break from Nairobi and its environs, also if we are
  to put up disaster recovery centers they need to be at least 150 kilometers
  from the main data centres therefore Athi River is out.<br>
  <br>
  The ICTPark is supposed to be a tripartite in nature private sector, academia
  & government in that order.<br>
