Thanks all for the feedback and suggestions. I will surely follow up on .<a href="http://co.ke" target="_blank">co.ke</a> domain issue. The gTLD has been in use for a while. We had an argument on the same with our colleagues and the decision to use the gTLD was based on the argument that we have an international audience and we needed to give the IPA an international outlook and presence (you will notice that most Investment Promotion Agencies IPA's use gTLD's not ccTLD's) however there is absolutely no harm in obtaining a ccTLD to compliment the gTLD.<div>
