Why cant we have basic services like name search for companies going online? . </div>
<div>On another note i find the document to be very high level and i doubt whether the common man would easily plug in , yet i understand that 70% of the local populace is Jua Kali, how do we get them to plug in ? i write this from the point of each Kenyan having a role in the success of Vision 2013, any other lister who may be in the know can also enlighten me.</div>

<br>The government’s effort towards transforming the country into a knowledge based economy <a href="http://www.ict.go.ke/index.php/ict-masterplan/516-government-launches-the-national-ict-masterplan#" style="text-decoration:underline" title="Click to Continue > by Coupons and InText" target="_blank">through</a>
digital empowerment was on 14th February 2013 endorsed with the launch of the first
National ICT Masterplan, Connected Kenya 2017.
A five year plan that seeks to drive citizen adoption of the Vision
2030 priorities through ICT policies and initiatives, the master plan
projects that by 2017 Kenya’s ICT industry will be contributing an
estimated US$2 billion (some 25 percent of Kenya’s GDP) and have created
around 500 new tier-1 ICT companies and over 50,000 jobs.
<p>“As a step towards its realization, the ministry is working on
standardizing business processes and developing sub-plans that will
allow the delivery of innovative public services within government” said
Information and Communication Ps., Dr.Bitange Ndemo“</p>
<p>Strong governance and increasing engagement between the government
and private sector will help to remove barriers that would impede
execution in order to deliver a society based on knowledge”, added
Dr.Bitange Ndemo</p>
<p><br>Guided by the ministry’s policy objectives and to achieve the
intended full benefits of ICT, the Masterplan plugs into the vision
2030’s social and economic pillars in seven keyintervention areas. Under
the social pillar are Education and Training, Health sector, Water and
sanitation, Environment, housing and Urbanization, Gender, Youth and
Vulnerable groups, Social Equity and poverty reduction.<br><br>The
economic pillar shall deliver on Tourism, agriculture, Wholesale and
Retail Trade, Manufacturing, Business process outsourcing and financial
services and the creative industry.<br><br>What began as a stakeholder
engagement on the hypothesis of what had been adopted in countries like
Singapore has taken two years, culminating in the birth of the ICT
Masterplan.<br><br>“Indeed, the plan is ambitious and it is an attempt
to infuse ICT s and knowledge into the Vision 2030 by enhancing citizen
value. How? by availing channels that will stimulate the set-up of ICT
related businesses and therefore employment creation” said Paul
Kukubo,ICT Board CEO.,<br><br>At the core of this Masterplan are three
strategic pillars that will be used as a measure of success. Enhancing
public value through service delivery and access of public service,
strengthening ICT as a driver of industry by establishing an ecosystem
for ICT adoption and the development of ICT business that lead an
understanding of the emerging market needs.<br><br>“The plan is really
just a guideline and availing it to the public means that we are open
for further deliberation and feedback .We intend to review the document
annually to review progress and realign the same to the day’s
priorities”, added Paul Kukubo<br><br>The Launch of the National ICT
Masterplan comes just two days after a draft National Cyber Security
Masterplan roundtable, a final review session for the country’s first
document that seeks to establish a regulatory and policy framework in
information security. The Strategy and Plan play a fundamental role in
managing risks to government processes through securing the information
assets.</p>
