Mission To Transform Livelihoods through Equitable and Sustainable Utilization of Resources ii FOREWORD The Constitution of Kenya 2010 established two tier governance systems with a national government and 47 county governments.In view of the constitutional requirements and the need to promote the welfare of our residents, I’m proud to present the West Pokot County Second Integrated Development Plan that will cover the Period 2018-2022. This is the blueprint that will guide the development agenda of our county. The Plan integrates economic, physical, social, environmental and spatial aspects of our county and will form the basis for appropriating county public funds. The Plan preparation has been guided by the Constitution, aspirations of Kenya Vision 2030 and its Third Medium Term Plan. The County Government under my leadership recognises the existence of socio-economic challenges affecting our residents that includes high poverty levels, low investment levels, historical marginalization & underdevelopment, low literacy levels, food insecurity, poor infrastructure and effects of climate change and will over the plan period work tirelessly to promote the welfare of all residents. The plan outlines programmes and projects aimed at address these challenges and in overall spur economic growth and development of our county. By implementing the programs and policies under the County Economic Transformation Agenda, we are laying a solid foundation for County’s industrialization as envisaged in the Vision 2030. Building on the progress made this far, we aim to address the remaining bottlenecks that continue to hold our economy from achieving its full potential by focusing on “The Big 4 and 3E’s” Plan over the next five years.

It utilizes data based on a survey, which was administered to 114 farmers across 6 different regions in Kenya, to find out how, indirectly, PPPs impact the average Kenyan farmer in how they transport their goods, the costs associated with transporting their goods, and the time it takes to transport their goods. To administer this survey, several university students from Nairobi were sent to each of the 6 regions, over a period of roughly 2 months. Below is a map of the Lamu Port and Lamu-Southern Sudan-Ethiopia Transport Corridor (LAPSSET). It is the current (and proposed) network of highways, rail, and oil pipelines that are being funded largely by PPP’s, and are an integral part of Kenya’s infrastructure goal initiative, Kenyavision 2030.

    The Ultimate Fishing Safari Written and Illustrated by John McMillan ©1987 McMillan Design, Inc., 9816 Jacobsen Lane, Gig Harbor, WA 98332 tel: 253-858-1985 The Ultimate Fishing Safari Written and Illustrated by John McMillan ©1987 McMillan Design, Inc., 9816 Jacobsen Lane, Gig Harbor, WA 98332 tel: 253-858-1985 1 BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Born in Zaire where my parents were Protestant Missionaries, I first learned to fish with African natives on the tributaries of the Zaire River as a small boy. Since that time my interest in fishing and exploring has taken me to Alaska where I lived and worked for fifteen years in the salmon fishing and seafood processing industry and on the North Slope with an oilfield service company. I now operate a small industrial design studio in Seattle. My background of a childhood spent on the shores of East and Central Africa’s waterways has made me keenly aware of the surrounding natural history of the region and my love for explor- ing and sport fishing gives me the strength to provide an accurate account of the thrills that await the adventuresome angler. Combining a safari and sport fishing is still a new concept to most travelers to Africa. My goal is to help alleviate some of the logistics involved and prepare the way for a successful angling safari to Kenya. I have described the techniques best suited to fish Africa’s lakes and rivers and knowing local African languages enables me to share the methods used by local fishermen. The Ultimate Fishing Safari gives me an opportunity to share some of the unique experiences I have enjoyed, a life few people in this world have known.

The map distinguishes 47 vegetation types, divided in four main vegetation groups: 15 forest types, 15 woodland and wooded grassland types, 5 bushland and thicket types and 12 other types. Furthermore, a number of compound vegetation types are mapped, which include vegetation mosaics, catena's and transitional zones. The map is available in various formats (as a work in progress). Version 1.0 was published on the forest and landscape (FLD) website. The methods, data and assumptions made to create this map are detailed in: van Breugel, P., Kindt, R., Lillesø, J.
