What they are basically saying, is to my mind, that Kenyans can't
manage .KE and they want one of the commercial operators to bail
them out.

Of course commercialization has its benefits (especially for the
beneficial owners), but one asks oneself, whether not perhaps the
regulations or rather the regulator is the problem.
