Vivek Kundra: Obama's first federal IT chief pick mwana wa Tanzania

No that's not me but I wish Vivek all the best. His accomplishments show that if Bantus in Tanzania or throughout East Africa are ever to progress (economically or socially), you will do it on the backs of Asians
Almost 5% of the peope live under 1$ are from india....1/4 of the Indians population earns less than the government-specified poverty threshold of $0.40/day.Half of Mumbai sleeps and shits on pavements.Its terrible how poor indians places are.......

India has a higher rate of malnutrition among children under the age of three (46% in year 2007) than any other country in the world.

Who is responsible for these? ubantu? Shining India!!

We are really not the enemy or the primary source of your problems.
I gatchu You.........
 
Naona Vivek Kundra amechukua Leave of Absense akisubiria matokeo ya FBI investigation.
 
... sisi tuliokuwapo hapa Tanzania na kuitumikia nchi kwa kuijenga ndio wakufurahiwa na kupongezwa hao watu mnaowataja wanakuja hapa TZ kama ni watalii funguweni vichwa vyenu

Spear, nami pia nakuunga mkono.

Kama kweli wewe ni mbongo na unaujuzi, basi rudi Bongo ukajenga taifa lako (na pia kujijenga mwenyewe). Waliokuwa Bongo wanajenga nchi - pole pole, lakini wanafanya mambo!

Go figure
India still has the world’s largest number of poor people in a single country. Of its nearly 1 billion inhabitants, an estimated 350-400 million are below the poverty line, 75 per cent of them in the rural areas.

"we kidudumtu kidogo kuliko wote"....mwanangu tusiende huko😕?

It is called Reverse brain drain – the return of human capital from developed countries to home countries after gaining education and work experience, and therefore resulting in the transfer of knowledge.

From my perspective this creates a positive-feedback loop; the returnees bring a different work ethics and knowledge, contribute to the growth of the middle-class, harmonize with the local population’s contribution towards economical development, and thereby encouraging others who are still abroad to return home. Hence, the whole process repeats…


Now here is a question for you: How can you make a lasting contribution and transfer your "know-how" to the local population if you only come home for two weeks every year? Au unatusaidia kuomba misaada ya kujenga mashule?
 
Mmmh good move!!Next time we bringing NBA PLAYER OF THE YEAR from TZ!!Thabeet

Mimi huo Utanzania wake sijauona KABISA, kazaliwa india, wazazi wake wahindi kuongea kiswahili hata Jeetu Patel anakiongea kwa sababu ni lugha tu. Mtanzania ni Asha-Rose Migiro

umenena kwa uhakika. jamani mnaodai huyu Vivek ni Mtz nina wasiwasi na nyie sana kuhusu kujua maana ya Mtz na nani si Mtz. kwa kusaidiwa soma quote hiyo juu nafikiri mtajua kwanini huyo SI MTANZANIA HATA KIDOGO NA WALA HATAKUWA MTANZANIA LABDA AUKANE URAIA WA MAREKANI NA INDIA
 
Watanzania jamani nani anayemfahamu huyu bwana? Kuna mtu anasema ni mwana JF mzuri sana na huwa anaisaidia JF, mwenye data ama kama yupo atujuze
 
Mimi nashangaa tunampiga vita RA na akiana Patel kibao walio bongo leo tunataka kumfagilia ponjoro mwingine. Kama wazazi wake walau wangezaliwa bongo ningewaelewa. Huyu jamaa walihamia bongo tu na hiyo haimfanyi kuwa mTZ kwa njia yeyote ile licha ya kuzungumza kiswahili na kudai kiswahili ni his fist language. Huyu jamaa ni Muhindi, period!

Vivek Kundra's Crime: Shoplifted Some Shirts From J.C. Penney
Eric Krangel|Mar. 18, 2009, 9:33 PM|comment36

We've been wondering what happened with 'America's CIO' Vivek Kundra's 1997 misdemeanor theft conviction, the one the White House dismissed as "youthful indiscretion."

Now we know: Vivek shopflited four shirts, worth $134 combined. From J.C. Penney.

At an average of $33.50 a pop, they weren't even nice shirts, even in 1996 dollars. (The crime was 1996, the conviction 1997.)

And then, when Vivek got caught, he ran for it. He didn't get away.

Props to the Associated Press for pulling every thread. Via the AP's Michael J. Sneffen:

A 1996 Montgomery County, Md., police report obtained by The Associated Press on Wednesday under a public records law shows Vivek Kundra was observed by a security guard putting the men's shirts into a shopping bag and leaving the store without paying. Sgt. Tom Stanton wrote that Kundra was arrested after a brief foot chase and the property was recovered.

At this point, we wish Vivek and his White House handlers would come forth with a full explanation. Was this a fraternity prank? Is there some backstory about how Vivek was dead broke and needed a dress shirt for a job interview? Because right now, we not only think Vivek is a petty thief, we think he's a petty thief with bad taste in clothes.

I Worked With Vivek Kundra, Don't Blame Him For DC Bribery Scandal

Is "America's CIO" Vivek Kundra being unfairly tarnished by the FBI investigation into bribery and money laundering at his old offices, the DC municipal government's tech dept?

At least one staffer who worked with Vivek (pronounced vi-VEK, emphasis on second syllable) tells SAI "yes."

I'm one of the 27 consultants whose contract was terminated at DC Gov't in the wake of the bribery scandal at DC Govt, and I've worked on projects that Vivek directly championed at OCTO. You ask in your article if you're treating Kundra fairly; i say no...

The people arrested in the past week were in DC Gov't employ before Vivek got there: he inherited them. You can't lay their actions at his feet. There were personnel in the office of the Chief Financial Officer's office who are charged/terminated or arrested, yet no news story says anything about whether or not the head of that office is in trouble; indeed his name has yet to appear anywhere.

One of Vivek's innovations in DC was to implement a double-blind bidding process on contracts, a system, we're told, that would have stopped the bribery in its place had it been there earlier.

The source -- who doesn't want their identity revealed, as they may re-apply for more tech work in DC -- chatted on the phone with me for a bit. They clearly are familiar with goings-on in the DC tech office, and were effusive in their praise for Vivek, describing their old boss as "young, energetic, political, a real nice guy." But our tipster said they only met Vivek two or three times, and doubted Vivek would even be able put a name to their face.

So maybe Vivek isn't such a bad guy after all. Let no one say this blog isn't willing to give Vivek a fair shake.

But with the FBI investigation continuing, and then that weird J.C. Penney shoplifting charge we just learned about, really the only one who can put to rest the doubts we have about Vivek is the man himself. We've submitted our request for interview to the White House, and we repeat our call publically now.

If Vivek really did get stuck with a bum rap, no one wants to move past it more than us, so we can tackle the dot-gov mess together going forwards. Meanwhile, we invite any of Vivek's co-workers, former classmates, or anyone who can tell us more about him to write in at ekrangel@businessinsider.com.
