@eboomerang

...I have read your blog quite informative i must say, i totally agree with you. We can move to become middle income economy if our major sources of foreign revenues is still the same as it were 20 yrs ago..

Thank you !smile

Suprisingly, I found another site where one expert has faulted the Konza project. http://www.ictworks.org/...-network/877#comment-945

Here's something interesting I came across on the net one day that's relevant to this topic. Check out these links. On the first one just select Kenya...

I think the road building and other infrastructure projects such as fibre optic; rail are excellent ideas. I also have no issue with the idea of ICT Park. My borne of contention and where things will go awry is the lack of a holistic picture at the highest level. How do these projects fit in? What is the vision (please don’t say vision 2030)? Because there is no vision, the detail is of course fuzzy. It has lead to a jobless economic growth.
A couple of examples. Why borrow from the Chinese and ask them to come and build the roads? Why can’t you ask them to subcontract the work to Kenyans and they can do the supervising. They if even brought their own road diggers! Konza looks like a money-minting idea dreamt up by Merali. How will GoK attract businesses there? Why not fund ICT R&D in one of the Universities? Kimathi was talked about it in this respect. We still can’t do some very basic things right. Every yr, farmers in RV and Kitale will throw away maize. At the same time as brethren in NE will be starving.
The big picture, but also professionalism (a big topic for another). It’s not going to happen if Mzees in their sixties hold 3 or 4 jobs at the sametime. Surely a Njung’e, a Seles maybe evem the somewhat intemperate Mukiha can do some of these jobs.

:):) absolutely! I am busy crushing concrete in Panafrica but I am forced to know a thing or two on Financials due to my small investments in KSH.
That explains my appreciation!

Hey , its just how neo colonialism works. You dont get the aid/loan unless you agree to use certain contractors or procure from certain sources. The very idea to do these projects is conceived by the donor countries and imf et al. Check out 'confessions of an economic hitman' on youtube or just buy the book.
