I beg to differ. On a wider scale,I think Kenya has no shortage of promisory blueprints,plans and Visions. It simply scores poorest in implementation of these. This is largely in my view arising from a lack of political goodwill to prioritise this accurately and implement,not eat(!) from,it.

A significant number of Kenyans vote for tribal chiefs out to help 'us' 'eat' from these institutions. These institutions provide 'jobs' for us once the political cabal is in office. It's from these jobs we accord 'ourselves' five years from which to 'eat' until the next regime has it's chance. Who has time implement these policies drafted years ago by a well meaning Kenyan meanwhile? it's deal after deal 'we' are after.

Remove political interference and I think these institutions,as examples,will fare better - in implementation. More accountability and competition will breed a culture of efficiency and positive outcomes.

@ecstacy,kindly educate me if am wrong on my general assessment of the situation in Kenya.

I do not know if you should need political good will to tell a judge to adjudicate on a case within say one year instead of the same happening in ten years.

I do not know if one needs political goodwill to tell NCC to collect garbage once you have paid for such service before hand.

I do not know if one needs political goodwill to tell KP&LC or KenGen that one years from now there will be more customers for them. Please''

I'm one who stands for the rule of law...in a country where impunity has risen to record levels...

For the issues we're discussing here,political goodwill at the least goes a long way in raising the masses psyche to follow these laws or simply do the right thing.. catalysed by the carrot and stick effect...it has dramatic results

Example: Kenya is supposedly fighting corruption in 2009 as it was 2003. The difference is that in 2003 Kenyans could carry out citizens arrests on corrupt traffic policemen as the fight was LED from the TOP - recall the Uhuru Park inauguration?? Today?..after Anglo-Leasing,the Maize scandal and a plathora of others..and the difference is clear. In fact today,the laws are better..

Example: The matatu madness had spiralled out of control until Michuki came round enforced sanity in the public transport sector. Kenyans then believed it was doeable and even again assisted the police in arresting offending vehicles.

Impunity is breeding across the Kenyan system. The best laws with the least intention to follow them is just paperwork. The best individuals for a job with the least resources to deliver their mandate is a waste of public funds. It's called lack of political goodwill. We have individuals amidst us who can rise and inspire the nation to greatness with the current laws and even most civil service workers. Kenyans await. President Kagame is not a saint but he epitomises what I am saying.

@ecstacy,we are actually talking the same language and untill we start acting responsible we are on an unstopable move towards backwardness .

About the laws being better than in 2003 i do not now that,all i know is that because of the rot in our system that has corrupted most minds,we only think about yesterday and today but never tomorrow. This has contributed to the current bad situations in the country.

A Kagame for Kenya would be more than God's blessings for us and i can assure you that i would hold a prayer for my country the whole week.

It has been over FIVE years now. Are we still praying for KenGen, KPLC/KP or we are ok now??

The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.
