And who is the webmaster?
These guys are not capitalizing on the opportunity of traffic. I mean if the website is not able to handle the traffic, they should do something.
I wish they could give elimu.co.ke the results database niwaonyeshe.
People are already calling me asking about their kids exams and all i can say is "Sorry, we are not KNEC."
And Knec awards tenders to do what? Sad..:(

If I were the webmaster, I'd have the web server running on an SSD storage, with not less than 8GB RAM, on an ordinary workstation with Core 2 Quad CPU. With a properly tuned MySQL DB and Apache, that can handle this without a problem. And I think it's pretty easy to let the server sit on a 5Mbps symmetric bandwidth in the current age. Now, if one SMS costs, say 10-bob (they could make it 50-bob) and KNEC could easily raise KES 8m (or 40m) from this event alone. The webserver and the bandwidth for 1 year would not even cost 1m!!!!!!!!!
