Kenyans with a space to share their views on current reform issues for their
voices to be heard and relayed to the agenda 4 institutions for meanginful
change. We need to add the voices of ordinary Kenyans to the voices of the
political class. ICTs afford us the opportunity to do so in an efficient
manner!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>I think this is one of the most progressive thing we can have in the
country and which will propel the country forward. Loooking at what E-Log did
and other almost instantaneous relays of the referendum results, this definitely
is a step in the right direction. I look forward to seeing it grow.<BR><BR>
