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.
Recently, a familiar phrase has gripped Kenya’s public discourse. “Kenya must become Africa’s Singapore in our lifetime” is a rallying call framed by President William Ruto as a push for accelerated development that is faster growth, bigger exports, more jobs, better infrastructure, cleaner cities, and a state that works with precision.
It is a potent comparison because it permits Kenyans to dream beyond survival. Singapore stands in the global imagination as proof that a country can move from scarcity to abundance in a single generation through discipline, world-class public administration, heavy investment in skills, and intolerance for corruption, incompetence, and inefficiency.
