  • Hypocritical UNEP campaign

    Posted: June 23, 2008, 2:49 am by Ory Okolloh
    The UN(EP) recently launched a campaign to encourage people to “Kick the CO2 habit.” That’s all well and good except for the fact that while, the UN is busy encouraging us to reduce carbon emissions, as Dipesh points out, they don’t seem to have a problem with staff members driving around Kenya (and I’m [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Hypocritical UNEP campaign", url: "http://www.kenyanpundit.com/2008/06/22/hypocritical-unep-campaign/" });

  • What’s Google East Africa’s strategy?

    Posted: June 3, 2008, 6:50 pm by Ory Okolloh
    So I came across this post by Kenyan Entrepreneur and I was just as perturbed as he was. Why would Google East Africa sign a deal with Wunderman (and who are they…can’t even locate a website?) rather than promote adwords accounts in East Africa? Is it difficult to do online transactions in East [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "What’s Google East Africa’s strategy?", url: "http://www.kenyanpundit.com/2008/06/03/whats-google-east-africas-strategy/" });
