Kenya Posts and Telecommunications Corporation (KPTC) was a government company that provided telecommunication and postal services across Kenya. In 1999, the KPTC was separated into three separate entities - Telekoms Kenya, Kenya Postal Corporation and the Communication Commission of Kenya,(CCK) the licensing and regulatory authority of the government.〔"Kenya Telecom Corporation Winds Up." Africa News Service 29 June 1999: 1008180u1681. Business Insights: Global. Web. 3 Mar. 2014.〕 ==History== From 1948 to 1977, postal service in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda was provided by the East African Posts and Telecommunications Corporation. The dissolution of the first East African Community since that era forced Kenya to establish its own monopoly communications company, KPTC.〔 New government economic policies in the mid 1990s were developed and adopted, supported by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank. Recommendations of that process included separation of the postal and telecommunication operations. An IMF loan arrangement also depended on privatisation of KPTC, but IMF suspended this in July 1997 over reported concerns of government corruption. Controversy over IMF telecommunications privatisation policies continued. KPTC's Board of Directors was terminated by the Kenyan government in February 1999 prior to an IMF visit to the country. In 1999, the corporation was broken up into three entities: # Telkom Kenya providing telecommunications services, # Postal Corporation of Kenya to offer postal services, # Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK), a separate national regulatory authority. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kenya Posts and Telecommunications Corporation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
