I can't believe it


Celtel Wins the Best New Product category Marketing Awards @ the MSK Warrior Awards (Which one?). Celtel always remind me of a good product very badly packaged. If i remember well Celtel used to chuck a new Tariff every week and litter town with fliers.Anyway the BD didn't even find it fit to run a story on the awards. What a shame!
 
And then here are the Highest paid Actresses. Courtesy of www.perezhilton.com

I have no idea why www.perezhilton.com hates Britney that much. Meithink its LOVE.
 
Now how? Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore (top 10 earners?) I can't believe someone can earn that much for being a blonde. But then again this is America.
 
America builds you and then destroys you in equal measure.
 
Finally who will help Esther Passaris OF Adopt A Light?
 
She has chosen to fight City Council and it's not going well. Before Esther Pasaris there was darkness and to (not be blasphemous) sure just like Jesus upon her arrival to street lighting there was light. Infact i remember her marketing slogan was ( AFRAID OF THE DARK, ADOPT A LIGHT). While at it she made mad cash.
 
It is bad for Kenyans to know you are making cash. It is hard to look at the lighting in the streets without thinking of Esther. Infact when Mwai Kibaki tells Kenyans of his achievement and cites lighting the city and John Gakuo uses the same to measure his success they must always think of Adopt a Light.
 
Few Kenyans can do a job well, you just have to look at our roads to know that especially a public one. Adopt A Light has in all honest done their part. They have been losing one court battle after the other
 
Things Esther should know
Law suits are expensive
Lawyers are more expensive
Losing suits is even more expensive
Joining an opposition party openly while doing business with the government is totally expensive.  
It is good to separate business ownership with the management. This is a typical example.
