Country Chapter vs City Chapter
by Sylvia Kariuki 11 Oct '11

11 Oct '11

I agree with the formation of country level chapter as opposed to a city level one on the following basis: - Being internet related,the activities will not be limited to cities, but to the whole country, we should not tag the organization according to the membership but according to the perceived impact of the activities of the organization. which in my opinion will be country-wide and not limited by cities. Best Regards Sylvia Kariuki

I support the suggestion. This can help to iron out the different views and expessions and hopefully reach a consensus. Meanwhile can Barrack please develop an agenda, and maybe seek to hold a whole day meeting so that we could have enough time to discuss and exhaust all the burning issues. After this maybe we could get more closer to registering the chapter.

Dear members, I trust we are all well, we have been making progress in a number of areas, however we have only had one meeting and many of us don't know each other, i am proposing a get together (Social forum) where we can get to know each other even as we deliberate on the issues that need to be sorted to get our chapter up and going. what is your take on the proposal and could we have suggestions of a suitable date and venue? Kind Regards -- Barrack O. Otieno +254721325277 +254-20-2498789 Skype: barrack.otieno

Hello All, I agree with Walu, lets have a country chapter first, before we begin dispersing....my concern would be, are the activities going to be restricted within the chapter 'borders' ? because in that case the Nairobians have to think real hard.

But to choose well, you must know who you are and what you stand for, where you want to go and why you want to get there.” Kofi Annan On Thu, Oct 6, 2011 at 7:39 PM, <isoc-request(a)lists.my.co.ke> wrote: > Send isoc mailing list submissions to > isoc(a)lists.my.co.ke > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/isoc > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > isoc-request(a)lists.my.co.ke > > You can reach the person managing the list at > isoc-owner(a)lists.my.co.ke > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of isoc digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
