<div>Dear Dr Ndemo</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I would like to know a couple of things:-</div>
<div> </div>
<div>(a) How will you stimulate and ensure that the biggest benefactor and user of ICT, the Government, and who in turn would be a huge benefitor to wananchi by availing the various services and benefits that you have expounded on, embraces/uses national ICT infrastructure and platforms optimally (even minimally to start with)</div>
<div> </div>
<div> (b) How will you align all government agencies to utilise single or common national ICT infrastructure/platforms to avoid the duplication (triplication and quadruplication too) of efforts by many to develop several similar initiatives each to their own end.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>An example will make my point lear:-</div>
<div> </div>
<div>- Government owns huge stake in TEAMS. How many government agencies are utilising or hooked to it and using it properly</div>
<div>- Is Kenya Police connected extensively (to itself and other key agencies)</div>
<div>- NOFBI: How many government and govt affiliated offices are on it and those who are, how are they maximising their use</div>
<div>- When will we see the end of web based email addresses (yahoo, gmail etc) as emails to key or all public servants</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The point I am making is that the largest user of ICT is the Government, however the services it utilises currently run on disparate platforms with no common theme or link thus making redundant a lot of these platforms. Then some just dont have even the basic of services and others have the facility and do not use it all.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Your views?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards</div>
