<div class="PlainText">Hi bwana Kariuki,<br>
<br>
The GDPR conversation has been going on on this list for a couple of<br>
months. If you check the archives, you will even find a paper by<br>
Juliet Wangui on how GDPR will affect African countries. I am also<br>
happy to note that companies such as Kenya Airways and Elewana<br>
collections have taken steps to comply with GDPR requirements such as<br>
appointment of Data Protection officers and revision of their privacy<br>
policies. I am sure there are many others that might have done so<br>
without much fanfare.<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
<br>
