Joram, mobile phone payment platforms were conceptualized and implemented long before MPesa, so the issue of patents for MPesa cannot arise

Clearly we have no inventors/innovators in Kenya(or laws to protect them?). No wonder Patent Knowledge(and a respect for intellectual capital) doesn't resonate with us . I remember a thread where people are afraid of sharing info especially with big companies because they will run with it. If patenting was respected, such fears would be quelled coz the first to patent would get the benefit of his ideas.

Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,but that we are powerful beyond measure.It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.As we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fear,our presence automatically liberates others.
