Kenya decided to provide digital id to all kenya’s by February 2024 and find India who will be the partner of them in this new service. By knowing New Delhi expertise in the digital sector. India is the natural choice of Kenyans as they are influenced by the service of digitalization that India is providing to the netizens.
As per the country’s Cabinet Secretary for Information Communication and Digital Economy Eluid Owabo, Kenya’s aim is to issue Identity cards for easy governmental service access. Their vision is national drives information and the ease of services. Providing and building the more upgraded facilities to the country. And get all the inspiration from India. As during Pandemic days India is providing social security and welfare support to the netizens. And this digital ID is linked to birth and death UPI.
India’s expertise and experience could help Kenya not only in building population-scale public goods (DPGs) – a set of networked, interoperable utilities like Aadhar, (UID), UPI, eKYC, Account Aggregator (AA), Open Credit Enablement Network (OCEN), Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC), but also to optimise implementation efficiency of social security and welfare programmes and financial transactions.
Kenya could also seek a Line of Credit (LoC) for multi-platform public digital ID and digital platforms from India, at least part of the estimated cost of USD 100 million. For Kenya, India is a dependable development partner.
Apart from being trade and investment partners, the two countries could also be seen as maritime neighbours. India is among the top six trade partners (bilateral trade USD 2.208) of Kenya and the second largest investor.
Kenya should explore a greater partnership with India in digital technology. India is now reckoned among the top three digital powers in the world on the basis of people using or involved in its digital networks, the total quantum of business and start-ups and internet networks and mobile penetration. India’s expertise in the field is reliable and outstanding.
India could be of great help in Kenya’s plan to help it to use its UPI with the NEMIS school platform, the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) and National Social Security Fund (NSSF) as it has expertise and experience in doing so with the least time and cost.
