The Standard e-Paper
Kenya’s Boldest Voice
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 industrialised Kenya that Vision 2030 foresees will be built on the sweat of entrepreneurs. This is the overwhelming feeling I had on May 31 when I was part of the 1,300 passengers on the maiden trip of Madaraka Express to Nairobi.

They range from Thomas Newcomen, the 18th century Englishman who invented the steam engine to George Stephenson, the mechanical engineer, widely considered as the father of Railways.
