@Crystal, @MacDonald @Areba, thanks for your inputs.
The main problem I see, and the core of my thoughts, is that the Kenyan Dream is built on Entreprenuership through vendorships and brokerages and skills within these. Unfortunately, this is now a culture of its own and is too deeply rooted, whether in Govt or Private sectors. Its no different from those who sell Solaris High End Servers to those who use e.g. Joomla or some Open Source product ( edited versions ) to cater for the demands in the market. Nothing wrong with this, its purely a business culture that is even reflected in the Livestock industry. Not sure how many saw the show yesterday, but I watched briefly on TV and was totally impressed with the Cows that literally looked like the size of rhinos! These animals could barely walk straight. There is genetics involved somewhere, either in the diet or in hormone injections but for those livestock breeders, how many can say they played a part in the genetics? A big ZERO, and am certain of this because they only want the end result = A Big Cow = Good sales. FINITO! And it works out very well, everyone is happy and the govt can sing the song of successful entreprenuers. In the budget read this week, I noticed that such words repeatedly popped up almost every few minutes, a marketeers dream.
So in such an economic environment, there is very little room or space for those who choose to think or do things a bit differently, and this might explain why @Crystal has come up blank each time. What I know with 100% certainty is the saying "the wrong place at the wrong time" is very true, so are such economies really worth the hastle and time? I don't think so.
Me thots. :-)
