I'm really concerned because there are lots of porous gaps, which could be used by terrorists against innocent Kenyans. Even if I sense the guards might identify a bomb, what about luggage deposits or undergound parkings? Methinks there ought to be electronic scanners, just like the ones found in airports to provide maximum security. There is an update doing rounds on facebook of how cell phones are used as guns, and I wonder we have mechanisms for safeguarding our security , at the least expected places. Fom the foregoing, it's apparent that we are good at react instead of preventing a calamity from taking place.

A simple security question
by Solomon Mbũrũ Kamau 27 Jun '12

27 Jun '12

Apologies for cross-posting. This is a non-ICT related issue, but touches on people's security. Someone help me out. This is just a hypothesis: Let's say I'm carrying an IED in my back bag and attempt to enter a supermarket, the guard, with a metal detector, rolls the detector on me, asks me what I have in the back, and I say, Laptop. He lets me in. Do the security guards have training on handling bombs, or once a blast takes place, they run without looking back Solomon

e-Government Online Portal
by Esther Wanjau 26 Jun '12

26 Jun '12

Dear All, The Directorate of e-Government has developed an internet portal to facilitate citizen access to integrated public services using a computer, PDA or phone. A catalogue of government services has been developed. It is intended that this simplified method of accessing a wide variety of government services will enhance service delivery and reduce opportunities for graft. The link to this service is www.kenya.go.ke or www.hudumakenya.go.ke. This portal also allows you to personalize the services that you require so that when you log on to the portal you only see the services that you want. The same applies to the links one visits on a regular basis including social networking sites. One can add and remove services at will. To do this one must first create an account. Try it out! Your feedback will be highly appreciated. Esther Wanjau Directorate of e-Government Presidency & Cabinet Affairs Office email: esther.wanjau(a)kenya.go.ke Public Services Everywhere, All the Time.
