• 11 May 2022 in Senate: Today, I saw one of the leading contenders for the presidency talking about exorbitant interest rates that are charged on mobile loans. Unfortunately, that candidate made the wrong assumption that by reducing the interest rates, you will be able to double the economic growth. Reducing the interest rates is more of an equality management process. It does not follow that when you reduce it, you spur economic growth. You just get to bridge that inequality. That was not the subject of this Bill. Let me come back to the Bill. Telemedicine has got a lot of potential in Kenya. We ... view
• 11 May 2022 in Senate: style because Amazon was primarily built for delivery of books? Why is it that view

• 11 May 2022 in Senate: the Government cannot encourage innovators to come up with an Amazon -style medicine and pharmaceuticals procurement system? It is so simple to do, and has been done elsewhere. What we need is a use case, and in this case, it will be applied towards ensuring that county governments and far-flung hospitals get medication pharmaceuticals just in time. That avoids stock piling and situations where drugs meet their expiry dates because a hospital ordered too many batches or cartons of paracetamol and anti-malaria drugs.

• 11 May 2022 in Senate: No, it might not have been the best idea to go for a diesel power plant. Perhaps, we ought to have gone for solar or wind, but the problem is that the regulator is not concerned about the sustainability of your energy source. The regulator is concerned about dominating the entire space and ensuring full monopoly. If we are going to get the hospital in Turkana to apply and plug into this e -health system that Sen. Pareno is proposing, we must have a different policy view towards mini- grids. Without electricity, the fibre optic cables will be useless and ... view
• 11 May 2022 in Senate: If you look at the Grid Economy where today transport is driven by technology in terms of Uber, Bolt and Taxify, it was not the Government that came up with an e- Transport legislation; it was private sector players and innovators that came up with a solution, which now requires regulation. If you look at hospitality and services, where people are now ordering on view
• 11 May 2022 in Senate: and Airbnb, we did not come up with an e-Accommodation solution. view
• 11 May 2022 in Senate: I want to thank Sen. Pareno for thinking ahead. Sometimes, when the Government thinks ahead, it provides the four corners within which innovation should thrive. However, I hope that through regulation, this Bill shall not be static. If things need to be changed quickly, then the regulations shall provide that route. I encourage Kenyans that technology works only where there is trust. view
