price?<br></font><br>William,<br>Today after a game of Tennis, I decided to hang
out in the sauna for a<br>while. I was delighted to see a colleague from
University of Nairobi and<br>a prominent professor of Biochemistry. There
were other three club<br>members. The professor narrated how for the first
time in his life time<br>while in Kisumu he had to settle for cat fish and ugali
for his lunch on<br>Saturday. There is no Tilapia he said. An Asian
businessman originally<br>from Kisumu who sat next to me indeed confirmed that
all the fish business<br>is the hands of Somali community which seems to have
struck some gold mine<br>in fish. He said noted “real estateb in all major
towns is now in their<br>hands too”.<br><br>The talk drifted into what such
enormous resource could do to the country<br>if the resource were to be used to
buy our gullible politicians. You<br>could sense the helplessness in the
small steamy cubicle. Although others<br>felt that there was a plan being
executed by one community to dominate the<br>economy in all major towns of
Kenya, I had to warn them that such talk can<br>be dangerous and amount to
discrimination against another community. I<br>bring these discussions
here because there are murmurs all over on the<br>Somali Community spending on
property without clear sources of the funds. <br>Until we discuss this matter
with open mind, it is disaster we are<br>courting.<br><br>We are indeed faced
with very difficult decisions in this country. There<br>is need to get to
the bottom of this matter since we know it will be a<br>problem in future if we
do not address it now. A large number of Somali<br>have migrated to
Kenya. In other countries such an influx is monitored<br>closely even when
there is no threat to state security. I remember in<br>1983 the Kenyan
community in Minnesota numbered about fifteen. By 1987,<br>the community
had grown to about 1,000 and eating a lot of corn meal to<br>the extent that it
became a major story in US media. Local ABC news<br>reported new immigrant
community that has wiped out all the corn meal in<br>the Twin Cities area.
We have no account of the characteristics of our<br>new
immigrants.<br><br><br>This is where ICTs begins to help us manage the
development of our people.<br>At every entry, we must take electronic finger
prints of every person<br>getting into the country. We must also get a
tamper prove ID. This can<br>be done along the lines of the Public Key
Infrastructure. We must begin<br>to release land registration records on
to the open data platform. This<br>will indeed help trace ill gotten
properties that in many ways compromise<br>the ability of local people in
affording such properties.<br><br>Good leadership is a product of informed
citizens and embracing a<br>participatory approach. This is how we can
move forward together.<br><br>Keep hope alive. One
Kenya.<br><br><br>Regards<br><br><br>Ndemo<br><br><br><br><br>>
Daktari,<br>><br>><br>> Your story about the trip, environment and lack
of planning is truly<br>> reflective of the sad situation we find ourselves
in. There is also the<br>> nostalgia you and the pilot shared over the
desecration of the<br>> environment. Thanks for jogging memories on certain

Date: Saturday, August 13, 2011, 4:57 PM<br>><br>> Walubengo,<br>> You
can dig for your answer in my write up below.<br>><br>> This week I had an
opportunity to fly to Laikipia for a lunch meeting with<br>> investors who
wanted to kill two birds with one stone by having a Safari<br>> and discuss
business at the same time. They paid the bill. The one<br>>
hour<br>> flight to and from Laikipia got my head spinning. The pilot
has been<br>> flying here for more than thirty years and has seen many
physical changes<br>> in Central, Eastern and Rift Valley. I pestered
him with many questions.<br>><br>> At some point he told me that all the
rivers that flow through Central<br>> Kenya had crystal clear water in the
7o's and 80's but as farmers<br>> encroached on riparian land, soil erosion
crept in and now they are all<br>> red dragging the best of soils into the
Indian Ocean. In spite of<br>> several<br>> Departments of
Geography in our Universities there are little or no<br>> studies on the long
term effects of what is happening to our ecosystem.<br>> We study both human
and physical geography not to apply the knowledge but<br>> as a means to get
papers for employment.<br>><br>> A quick research will tell you that we
are not only food insecure but also<br>> water
insecure.   Although Kenya’s water per capita in cubic
meters<br>> at 647<br>> is above world average 360, we do not compare well
with other progressive<br>> countries such as India at 1,911 and China at
2,840. We were better at<br>> independence since we had many dams
built by the British but are now<br>> non-existent. People planted
Ndumas in most of the dams. We must now<br>> admit we did not know the
impact and still we do not know until our<br>> academics get down to work on
research.<br>><br>> Soil erosion means we are also eroding the most arable
land in the<br>> country. Per capita arable land in Kenya measures
only .14 hectare per<br>> person. Here we fall below the world average
of .21 hectare per person.<br>> The statistic implies the world must manage
this resource better in order<br>> to feed everybody. The British had
started this policy on African<br>> reserves sort of rural
urbanization. We rightly shunned it but without<br>> studies to look
into our future. We must re-introduce this with a better<br>> name and
better housing with all utilities. My research findings on such<br>>
housing will cost about Ksh. 200,000 per unit of three bedrooms.Â
In<br>> other<br>> words we can construct 340,000 households from the
Goldenberg loot if we<br>> were to recover it. This will translate to
all of Northern Kenya from<br>> Kacheliba to Wajir.<br>><br>> We have
about 6 million households in Kenya of which 3 million can afford<br>> to pay
for such a house or better. The Government can indeed manage to<br>>
build for the remainder through improved tax collections (we pay about
40%<br>> of the potential income tax and about 20% of the potential local
authority<br>> taxes such as rates). Of course there will be other
savings from health<br>> budget that goes into opportunistic diseases that we
can eliminate from<br>> the face of Kenya. These include water borne
diseases. Typhoid alone<br>> costs Kenya billions that need to be used
to improve the livelihood of our<br>> people and meet the constitutional
demands.<br>><br>> Therefore, the question on Lake Victoria water will not
arise if we dammed<br>> all the waters that flow into the lake and
elsewhere. As for affordable<br>> prices for broadband, I have no
doubts that we shall meet this even before<br>> the end of this year.Â
The shared infrastructure negotiations are going<br>> on<br>>
smoothly. In a few weeks time we should move forward with the LTE
open<br>> access program. If we all understand the open access
principle where big<br>> and small will use the infrastructure at same access
cost. More agile<br>> companies will indeed provide very competitive
pricing. As we move the<br>> Government more online, the more the
number of internet users meaning we<br>> shall reach the critical mass much
faster. With the critical mass and<br>> many providers, the price can
only go downwards.<br>><br>> The biggest problem and one asked by Monda is
the question of vested<br>> interests. I know some sectors have a real
problem with this issue and<br>> negatively impacts on our economic
growth. In our sector we have been<br>> lucky in the sense that much
of what we do is new and the rapid<br>> technological changes discourage
power brokers who may entrench themselves<br>> to build strong vested
interest. This is not to say that we are not<br>> often<br>> asked
to do things differently. Our savior is going to be open<br>>
government<br>> and in this I pray that every Kenyan understands this concept
because it<br>> has a way of not only dealing with vested interest but also
impunity in a<br>> way. If I had time I could delve into this
more. To date I do not<br>> think<br>> even media has understood
this powerful tool.<br>><br>> Back to my flight. Coming back I
found myself humming Jim Reeves’ song<br>> “we thank thee each morning
for a new born day ….. we thank thee for<br>> the<br>> sunshine and air
we breathe, for the rivers that run, for the birds that<br>> sing, for the
eyes to see this things…unfortunately we may not hear the<br>> birds sing
since from above you can see that we have eliminated their<br>> habitat –
percent of total land area in Kenya covered by forest is 2%<br>> compared to
world average of 31%. We may not see the rivers as they were<br>>
before since all our soils are polluting the what remains of rivers as<br>>
eucalyptus has swallowed much of the water and wetlands.<br>><br>>
Hovering over many towns across the land you get hurt by what you see.<br>>
Although there are planners in all local authorities you see a cry of<br>>
unplanned structures with visible problems of managing solid waste.Â
You<br>> simply see chaos in a country with literacy levels approaching
90%. What<br>> you see are the sources of many diseases and problems
such as the jigger<br>> menace in some parts of the
country.   I grew up fairly poor but we did<br>> not have
this level of disorganization. At least health officers did<br>>
something to prevent many diseases. I saw dirty butcheries and<br>>
restaurants closed by health officers. There was a semblance of
planned<br>> dukas. Where the madness of unplanningness came from I do
not know but<br>> this is one of the things “candidate� Ndemo will deal
with.<br>><br>> In conclusion, we must make very tough decisions if we
want a better<br>> future. I know the new constitution has brought all
sorts of rights but<br>> it is all nonsense if we undermine the future with
unplanned population,<br>> unplanned urban centers, unplanned future,
etc.   There must be no<br>> rights<br>> without
responsibility.<br>><br>><br>>
Ndemo.<br>><br>><br>><br>><br>><br>><br>>> Bw
PS,<br>>><br>>> nice insights you have below. Mine is
simply to ask what your<br>>> thoughts<br>>> are, in terms of making
consumer internet prices affordable. Yes, cost<br>>> of<br>>>
bandwidth at international gateway level used to be 5,000USD per MB<br>>>
(over<br>>> satellite) but now it has dropped below 500USD per
MB. Basically<br>>> it<br>>> has dropped by 10 times -
HOWEVER- in our cyber cafes, the cost of<br>>> accessing internet is still
1/- to 2/- per minute, pretty much what it<br>>> was<br>>> during
the satellite days.<br>>><br>>> Mobile data internet which is the
more common form of access is not any<br>>> cheaper either.ÂÂ
There's has been NO drop per-se, just marketing<br>>> gimmicks of
increasing the amount of bandwidth for the same (HIGH)<br>>>
price.<br>>> It is like saying lunch costs 2,500/= at some 5star hotel,
but since<br>>> there<br>>> has been good rains/harvest, for the
same 2,500/= you are free to eat<br>>> ALL<br>>> you want...sounds
good, but ONLY for those who could afford the 2,500/=<br>>> lunch bracket
in the first place - who unfortunately are not<br>>> many....particularly
in an economy whose average monthly income is<br>>> around<br>>>
8,000sh.<br>>><br>>> So how do you intend to tackle the internet
price problem when you get<br>>> to<br>>> be

Harry,<br>>> Yes there is a crisis virtually in every country at the
moment. The<br>>> difference is how you handle the
situation. In Britain the Prime<br>>> Minister<br>>>
thought he can take a vacation in Italy and forget what is going on
at<br>>> home but he was forced to dash home. Before I respond to
how we take<br>>> care<br>>> of our crisis, I felt there is a
patriotism lesson that we need to learn<br>>> from
Britain.<br>>><br>>> The first reports we got in our News papers
here and even in electronic<br>>> media, there was no cause of the crisis
in Britain. It was simply<br>>> reported that London is
burning. Some of our best media houses with<br>>> so<br>>>
many journalists forgot to ask questions like what, where, when,
why,<br>>> etc.<br>>>Â This would have helped us
understand. This is because the British<br>>> Media<br>>>
(from where our Media got the story) first looks at their<br>>>
country’s<br>>> interests first and everything else is
secondary. Does our Media<br>>> have<br>>> what they call
Kenyan or African interests? If they did, they would<br>>>
have<br>>> raised issues relating to racism and African Diaspora.ÂÂ
We shall be<br>>> more<br>>> respected if we had the interest of
those in the Diaspora at heart be<br>>> they<br>>> from Bahamas or
Nigeria.<br>>><br>>> How do we respond to our crisis? This
should not be a government<br>>> project.<br>>>Â The entire
society needs a lesson on respecting other human beings<br>>> because this
where our problems start and will open up greater<br>>>
opportunity<br>>> and sustained harmony for all humanity. In
other countries they make<br>>> an<br>>> effort to socially
integrate all citizens of different economic classes.<br>>> Let me
elaborate. In Kenya a good mechanic will never be found<br>>>
drinking<br>>> with a corporate CEO but in other countries it happens and
sometimes you<br>>> find they are neighbours. It is not common
you find a woman with an<br>>> undergraduate degree married to a plumber
for example. We have<br>>> defined<br>>> classes that we
try everything to belong to. We do not have good<br>>> plumbers,
mechanics, carpenters etc in this country yet we have thousand<br>>>
s<br>>> looking for white collar jobs.<br>>><br>>> I am sure
most of you have watched Cheers. The artists in the bar<br>>> are
a<br>>> postman, a doctor, other professional, bar maids and men having a
common<br>>> goal. Where no one thinks or feels they know more
than the<br>>> other. This<br>>> is the begging of building
a harmonious society that no one feels left<br>>> out. The rift
we have created just needs a small thing like shooting<br>>> a<br>>>
drug dealer (as in the UK) then hell will break loose. We must
not<br>>> forget<br>>> that this happened in China in 1949 when the
Maoists took over. They<br>>> literary killed anybody who seemed
to be from upper class. Land<br>>> reform<br>>> was the
major focus of policy as a result of China's vast rural<br>>> population,
around 90% of the population were farmers. Lands of former<br>>> landlords
were confiscated by the government and subsequently<br>>> redistributed to
the lower-class peasants. Do not forget the French<br>>>
revolution.<br>>><br>>> Discrimination in any form should be
shunned. This is because it is<br>>> the<br>>> basis of all
problems be it class or tribalism.  Three of my<br>>>
close<br>>> friends have experience that summarizes what I have tried
to<br>>> explain. <br>>> Mr.<br>>> X got six and
eighteen points at O and A levels respectively. At<br>>>
university he came out with 1st class in Electrical Engineering and<br>>>
joined<br>>> the then EAPL and later obtained an MBA. Mr. Y had
division II and<br>>> could<br>>> not afford high school but went to
Kenya Science Teachers to become a<br>>> teacher. Mr. Z also
passed his O levels with Division III and joined<br>>> Barclays Bank as a
Clerical officer. They have struggled in their<br>>>
own<br>>> ways and of the four of us Z is the wealthiest. Any
time I am with<br>>> X, he<br>>> complains why I should even have
time for Y and Z. Y by the way has<br>>> struggled for many years
and he will soon get his PhD. According to<br>>> X<br>>>
these are not our class of people. He loathes Z as one who
failed<br>>> and<br>>> now<br>>> possibly has earned his
wealth through corrupt means. In spite of<br>>> the<br>>>
fact that I have tried to ask X to forget the past, he feels he
belongs<br>>> to<br>>> a different class and hangs around some of
the “successful�<br>>> people.<br>>> Although I have
never disclosed this to Y and Z their sixth sense leads<br>>> them to
discriminate X from some events. At some point we were four<br>>>
young<br>>> lads who enjoyed life together but now pulling a part because
of<br>>> differences in the way we led our lives after high
school. I hear<br>>> and<br>>> see<br>>> this kind of
stories often and make me feel bad about class division in<br>>> our
country.<br>>><br>>> I have had the privilege of deciding who my
assistants should be but not<br>>> once have I ever picked someone because
we spoke the same vernacular<br>>> language. My current office is
a living example and after leading by<br>>> example, all of my senior
officers followed suit. This is how we<br>>> should<br>>>
begin to tackle the problem of tribalism. We also must
ensure<br>>> equitable<br>>> distribution of resources and start
connecting all the counties with<br>>> roads, energy, water, schools and
hospitals. We have already<br>>> connected<br>>> fibre
optics to all the counties and are in the process of covering the<br>>>
pockets that exist. Even with difficult times we have managed
to<br>>> balance<br>>> infrastructure development to all parts of
the country. We shall<br>>> continue<br>>> with similar

and practically everything Hub.<br>>> Of course some of our neighbours
will feel jealous.   This is<br>>> what

Indeed looking at events<br>>>> cutting<br>>>> across the

do we respond. And respond we must. But consequently this<br>>>>

backpeddling on<br>>>> the other hand.<br>>>><br>>>>
We'd also wish to understand what strategies would be put in place

Subject: Re: [kictanet] Bitange for President? Extended due to
Public<br>>>> Demand<br>>>><br>>>>
Grace,<br>>>> Thank you for extending the debate to Monday. I
hope I get time to<br>>>> articulate some of the issues that will
impact our lives in the next<br>>>> few<br>>>> years.ÂÂ
Earlier I said that we are not alone in how we are dealing<br>>>>
with<br>>>> our<br>>>> social development. I went
ahead and gave examples from the US and<br>>>> UK.<br>>>>
Although it is an unfortunate for the British people, it has come
to<br>>>> pass.<br>>>> Even the Central Bank we got some good
debate out of my post.<br>>>><br>>>> Leadership requires
selfless commitment to the people they lead. It<br>>>>
is<br>>>> a<br>>>> sacrifice one makes. In this
respect, I will seek for advisors who<br>>>> have<br>>>>
demonstrated ability to serve their country with dedication.ÂÂ
We<br>>>> have<br>>>> these<br>>>> people but they
have never been given a chance to lead. The<br>>>>
constitution<br>>>> has<br>>>> accorded us the opportunity to
search for such people.<br>>>> If you read today's front page Standard,
it has the requirement for<br>>>> those<br>>>> who want to
join the electoral commission. If we follow the<br>>>>
requirement<br>>>> to<br>>>> the letter, we shall get credible
people. It is this process that<br>>>> lacked<br>>>>
before and political operatives took charge in many posts within<br>>>>
government.<br>>>><br>>>> Indeed there will be a policy
guideline on all organizations registered<br>>>> under Societies
Act. It is in the interest of the public that these<br>>>>
organizations file annual returns to the registrar because they are
tax<br>>>> exempt. Tax exemption means that we the public
partly fund their<br>>>> activities. Further the state has a
responsibility to protect its<br>>>> citizens<br>>>> from
being taken advantage of. We cannot burry our heads in
the<br>>>> sand<br>>>> on<br>>>> this issue no matter
how sensitive it is. We shall also be<br>>>>
implementing<br>>>> our<br>>>> constitution with respect to
Bill of Rights.<br>>>><br>>>><br>>>>
Regards<br>>>><br>>>><br>>>>
Ndemo.<br>>>><br>>>><br>>>>><br>>>>>
Listers<br>>>>><br>>>>> We have received
requests (offline) that we allow "Candidate"<br>>>>>
Ndemo<br>>>>> more time for him to respond to more concerns being
raised.<br>>>>><br>>>>> This is to let you know that the
'official campaign period" has been<br>>>>> extended up to Monday
August 15, 2011.<br>>>>><br>>>>> And now Dr. Ndemo,
Harry Delano did ask you to say what kind of<br>>>>> advisors you
would be looking for to help shape policy. Can we hear<br>>>>> you
on this one too? You also make a valid point about churches
and<br>>>>> the fact that they are not audited. I know for example
in Washington<br>>>>> DC, Parish priests have to present audited
accounts to Parishoners<br>>>>> once a year, while the Bishop
fundraises through a system that is open<br>>>>> to public scrutiny.
Would you then make a policy decision on this? On<br>>>>> a light
note, may I remind you that your responses will go into the<br>>>>>
'manifesto' and translate into more or less "votes"
:)<br>>>>><br>>>>> Listers, let the debate
continue.<br>>>>><br>>>>> Rgds<br>>>>>
