ICT rankings

From todays nation:
Kenya is not ranked among the top 10 African countries in information communication and technology (ICT).

According to data gathered by the World Economic Forum and other economic organisations, the country ranks 12th behind its East African neighbours, Ugandan and Tanzania.
Tunisia heads the list followed by South Africa, Mauritius, Botswana and Ghana. Sixth is Egypt, followed closely by Morocco, Namibia, Uganda and Tanzania.

Quite fascinating that Kenya is behind Uganda and Tanzania, which i think is due to past unnecessary regulations that ended up with Telkom K being a monopoly that didn't offer much service.

However I suspect those stats are going to be changing very soon in Kenya's favour. The country is more or less prepping up for a major ICT boom. Within the region, Kenya's ICT skills base is considered among the best (despite the ranking). I just hope that this ICT boom, will not be concentrated in the major urban centres but spread across the country. If a broader ICT base is created in the country, we could be topping that list.

away from The Alpha Quadrant (home)

Almost glad to be away from the cold of Nairobi and in the heat of Europe... I don't intend to be here though @ winter.. :) .. I may need to start learning dutch fast.. though everyone i've met (so far) seems to speak english as well and french.

Faith - Invisible to the Visible

Hebrews 11:1,3
Faith involves seeing/having visible out of invisible
God's work of creation: God spoke out His imagination into being

vs 6
Without Faith it is impossible to please God.
Faith in God, you must be *sure* that He Exists!

Faith transcends belief

Romans 14:23
Anything not of Faith is sin

Rahab is in the hall of faith because she acted in faith. Shielding total strangers; whom she'd only heard about.

Moses went out of his comfort zone, leaving royalty and doing what he needed to do.
He grew up with the oppressor (who has lots of clout) but left those that were oppressing, siding with the oppressed;

Sometimes in the life of Faith, a follower of Christ must be 'Downloadly mobile' and live counter culturally.

Most of the members of the Hall of Faith reflect this.

Faith without works is dead. All the members of the hall of faith had their faith evidenced by their action.

Happy Birthday Nakeel

Enjoy the age (while it lasts)...

Superman Returns

To be honest, I didn't know when to expect when I went to watch this at Prestige Plaza.

Found it to be excellent! Lots of action, romance ;) and humour.... Maybe even better than X3... but then ... they are kinda different movies..

Since Lex Luthor wasn't exactly captured... Perhaps they might spin off a new movie...

Now what I simply can't wait for is Pirates....
