Digital Migration is a foregone conclusion. The issues is how we make policy in this country on ICT issues. And this is not a reference to the current administration. This is a blanket discussion on the last 15 years to date.</div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">Admittedly good things have happened and that is why this country has progressed to where we are. There is a lot to celebrate but there is also a lot to be done.</div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">The digital migration ought from the onset (and I say this with a straight face and no shame at all) to have been skewed towards local media houses as a matter of course. In fact the first CIO article I mentioned above (see the link) seemed to have alluded to the fact that the ministry had realized its error and decided to award a 3rd digital license to local media houses...then poof! Something happened again and the decision was rescinded.</div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">Ohaga, forgive me for being underwhelmed by the Government's awarding a digital platform license to KBC. No one on this list can deny the fact that KBC is a shadow of itself (if ever it was a whole being). Even its mandate of being the Government's mouthpiece is not being fulfilled. So why waste such a strategically important asset to it? </div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">The second article in the business daily alludes to the fact that the AG registered Signet as a separate entity from KBC. That is as it should be. I wonder where that process is at...in fact I will be daring enough to say that Signet should be reconfigured and shares offered to the local media houses so that there is ownership of the local content producers. This is the prudent thing to do. After all why offer a share of Signet to DSTV (which is owned by Naspers of South Africa) and not to other media houses? </div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">Lastly I would like to address the issue of policy making and regulation. I'm not a lawyer but a simple explanation:- </div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The policy maker decides what the regulations </span><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">should be and passes the laws implementing the regulations. The government regulator enforces those regulations.</span></div><div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">This issue has been addressed before by different listers on the list. I humbly submit that the lines here are very blurred in government as to who shapes policy and who regulates. I think its time someone took the bull by its horns and does what needs to be done.</div><br><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.294118); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.231373);">Ali Hussein</span></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.294118); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.231373);">+254 0770 906375 / 0713 601113</div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.292969); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); "><br></span></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">"I fear the day technology will surpass human interaction.
