Dear listers<br><br><a href="http://www.paulkukubo.com/?p=179">lessons, snippets, from the visit by the Singaporeans</a> <br><br>On behalf of the Kenya ICT Board I would like to thank those invited guests who made it to the Breakfast Presentation by the Singapore IDA International team. I have captured what I consider the gist of that presentation on my blog <a href="http://www.paulkukubo.com">http://www.paulkukubo.com</a> (which also updates my Facebook notes page). <br>
<br>The actual presentation will only be up on the ICT Board website Friday morning once the Singapore team has made additions to it when the get back home. Otherwise visit, <a href="http://www.ida.gov.sg">www.ida.gov.sg</a>.<br>
<br>Singapore provides an interesting benchmark for all nations when it comes to technology for better citizens services by government. Key to note is the 'whole-of-government' approach, 'many agencies, one government' strategy with an emphasis on delighting the customer (citizen, resident). For example it takes 2 hours to register a company and start trading with a single license. <br>
<br>Government spending has also helped develop the industry cluster of high end technology service firms comprising big name multinationals, local firms and combinations of both.<br><br>Thank you<br clear="all"><br><br>
