Esther Passaris In my car on the way home, the traffic still total madness. I actually had to abandon my car and walk along Kenyatta Ave or I would have been late. Now to my shock the interview was in Swahili dumb me did'nt give language any thought. Well I know it was rusty and limited as my vocabulary is limited to probably 500 Swah...ili words. But I think I got the gist of the discussion ????
Esther Passaris Hi all shall be on KTN just after or in between the news tonight at 7.00pm. I hear its a live show, good time to engage on issues of women I believe that was the topic, been so busy I did'nt really pay attention.
Esther Passaris Bogged down. Been 3 days since I went into my computer, and its amazing how busy life gets even before you done something else pops up?? Don't you wish the clock would just stop to have you catch up?? But it wont! It keeps going on and on so either catch up or get bogged once in a while. Dealing with yesterdays do's to...day is tough, but it has to be done? 2 hour commitment from today to catch up with lost seconds.

Esther Passaris Was at the talk by CK Prahalad on the Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid eye opening but govt. role key. Today govt. launched the water irrigation project to address food shortage by making us less dependent on rainfall. Only 30 % of the viewers on KTN had confidence in the govt. intent. I celebrate a step in the rig...ht direction I want to believe good is possible?Lake Naivasha is drying, lets pray for rain??
Esther Passaris When we die we fade away & life goes on, no time to waste on who added value to our world yesterday. Our deeds become nothing more then a PR exercise, an anniversary to mark with less and less people as the years go. Look at Mahatma Gandhi, Princess Diana, more recently Michael Jackson at home Tom Mboya Dedan Kimathi a...nd more recently Oscar? No more letting critics get to me I will just do what i have to and move on?
Esther Passaris On shortages, we all came into this world from dust to dust. No one is immune to suffering when a Nation or society is mismanaged not even the leaders or rich. Lets look at crime, road carnage, aids, etc when all hell breaks loose it knows not class or status it gets everyone may be the degree and speed varies, but le...t no one think its not affecting everyone me included. WHY LIE ? To me it is a WAKE UP CALL?
Esther Passaris Shortages, Shortages, Shortages. Last night the power did not come back at 6 pm as required. A transformer had blown but not to worry a few Muheshimiwa's on the street it is being worked on quickly- said an officer of KPLC. Well I slept before it came and woke up to no water to bath. Its a sad affair if you take it a n...otch higher and you don't have a home, land, job or food?? We need to address the shortages?Its sad?
Esther Passaris Promises, Things to Do lists, and MPESA. Does your Things to Do list haunt you?? Does it improve your performance, Does it make you a better person, Does it help you stay on top of things??? I operate one - its nerve wrecking given the length. Today I acted on a promise made on 2nd Aug. to Vincent to help pay for consu...ltation for his daughter Michelle, who suffers from cerebral palsy felt good. Isn't MPESA great??
Esther Passaris Embakasi, I know a lot of my supporters are from there. As you might be aware the chief justice appointed Justice Abida Ali to hear the petition. Orengo and Co are on record, the petition was brought by three embakasi voters as I am not a registered voter there. I am not interested in the seat, but if I can help I woul...d like the people of Embakasi to get a better leader. Any witnesses out there?? Any views??
Esther Passaris Signing an MOU (boy that rings a negative bell in my head) at 6 pm with a Singaporean company called ST Kinetics at 6pm today for the distribution of its machinery for road construction across the COMESA. They represent brands in China and America and I hope through our efforts we will improve the quality of roads and ...through our leasing scheme empower local contractors. This is a fruit of my China trip in Dec, 08.
Esther Passaris Wow, the media, i liken it to relationships from all the comments cant live with them and cant live without them. Its not all bad but i do get fed up of the divide and rule and the constant politics when Kenyans have so much else on their minds. We all trying so hard to change, plan, stay positive, instill hope and adv...ance Kenya but the media is still stuck on war like we were in election mode?? Patriotism is needed?
Esther Passaris I realized from my experiences is media fuels perceptions, that lead to talk which people run with without even knowing the person they talk about. Time is precious and the reason Kenya lacks behind is all the booze and wasted talk. I am human and not immune to being abused. On many occasions my story sells papers and ...in Kenya with a little money one can fuel perception. I am who I am and no one knows me better.
