<div dir="ltr"><div>Mr. Muraya, why are we vilifying the west while the current security scenario is coming from Somalia?<br><br></div>On the poor living conditions and facilitation of the police, I think the problem squarely lies in politics and corruption. Over the last 20years, how much funding has been allocated to the Police from the national budget? Billions of Ksh. Remember even the Anglo-leasing scandal had a large aspect of police communication and surveillance equipments. <br>

The idea is to minimize loss & damage: of life, limb, material, time, etc.</span></div>
<div><span></span>�</div><div><span>Emergency preparedness needs plenty of cross-agency cooperation (intelligence gathering, threat assessment,
coordinated response plans, etc.), awareness and integrated training/exercises (call them testing) to test the efficacy of any plans.</span></div><div><span></span>�</div><div><span>It would be interesting to see emergency plans (I am sure there is one pertaining to fire and evacuation) of the mall itself, when it was drawn up and how often it is tested; and indeed, how coordinated (with state security, health, fire, etc. agencies) the plan is.

<div><span></span>�</div><div><span>Such emergency plans need a lot of information gathering (yes, including what most Americans protest perpetually about: govt "spying" on them), analysis and informed decisions on threat levels and associated weight of response.

such as averting danger.)</span></div><div><span></span>�</div><div><span>Food for thought.
