The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key
influence in matters of national and international interest.
The Council of the Law Society of Kenya is facing perhaps the biggest internal rebellion the society has seen in recent times. The issue revolves around the proposed construction of an International Arbitration Centre. Actually it could be more of a hotel than an Arbitration Centre since it proposes to have more hotel rooms than Arbitration rooms but that's another story.
Many of those who have raised objections are not opposed to the project per se but to the opaqueness and lack of transparency that has informed the process to this particular stage. You see the Law Society likes to hold itself out as the guardians of transparency in all public affairs.
