About 300 remote villages in 14 counties will be the first recipients of free fully installed digital television sets that would be installed in households or social places in plans to increase uptake of digital television. The two-phase project that will benefit 16,000 households and 2,400 public institutions in 800 villages spread across Kenya is being implemented by the ICT Ministry, the Chinese Government and PayTV firm StarTimes. ICT Cabinet Secretary Joe Mucheru says the project which is slated to be completed this October will be crucial in bridging the existing information gap especially in remote rural areas.
