Good move by govt. Why should govt officers leave their offices and boardrooms and head to hotels to hold meetings and pay exorbitant charges. Sijui 200k per day for the conference room, 3k per person for tea and lunch, 500bob for water, 40k pp for room. That's a waste of public funds.


Hotels will suffer and workers will be fired. If Govt does not spend, the economy contracts. Govt should come up with clear guidelines on when a meeting can be taken out of offices otherwise a blanket ban is like banning psv night travel

Skype conference calls are enough,but I bet they will need 'goverment funded' lessons on how to skpye first.
Those meetings of theirs are too analogue,they bore even the way they do presentations,speak etc etc.is so routine and predictable.

Just when do people get down to implent what is discussed in these meetings if they are held every other week? sio security briefings.





I agree. What is clear is some ga'arment workers hawajui kukaa kwa ofisi na kufanya kazi. Ni kama viti zinawauma huko. Mara ni hoteli, mara they are travelling....

They should develop a culture of actually working in the office. Huduma!

what's the rationale of having such meetings in hotels?

Enforcement is one thing, thinking it's a stupid move is another. That's what @murchr was calling you out for.

Next month you will see the same hounchos in Naivasha or Mombasa launcing this, openning that workshop/seminar/training etc. Brainstoming on how to waste government funds is best done outside the office. Nothing will change.
