PCK, being a government owned institution, is not incentivised to have a working website. At the end of the day, whether it works or not, PCK employees will be handsomely rewarded with salaries and bonuses. Their owner, the people of Kenya, will not take them to task over such failings. If they were to make more money also, it wouldn't impact any one's bottom line - so why care? On 16 July 2014 14:51, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com> wrote:
I have just realized that www.emskenya.co.ke is not any more available. Actually, it was deregistered, from what I see on KENiC website. Yet, you go to the Postal Corporation (is it really a Corporation??) website and there is reference to EMS Kenya, linked to the website. The PCK website is what I'd call a dead website, but I am not a webdev so maybe there is another better word for it.
This got me thinking. What is it that stops PCK from having a functional website like the USPS one? Does PCK run without an IT Department to handle such things or is it the lack of competent webdevs to replicate what is on www.usps.com? I doubt if it's the later. Interestingly though, if you take a peek at http://www.posta.co.ke/home.asp, you get this feeling that someone tried this, but failed. Reasons? I don't know.
The host hilarious one though is when you try and find contacts: http://www.posta.co.ke/page.asp?pageid=20 Someone give me an alternative to puking, because I don't easily puke unless it's malarial.
Do I have a right to demand that PCK have a functional website??
