Box Nairobi Kenya PLEASE REPLY TO : Vinsravagen 20 Stockholm - Spanga Sweden Office: Home: FAX: Lund, Octobel n-6t EI \1' 8i 9~ D ['Hi'l : (::6j STAFF DiRECTUR F!ELD SERVICES Dear Mr Patel, I am very happy of the good outcome of your meeting with Professor Proebster on October 5th, especially your decision to held a Section meeting in November as a start of reactivating the section. As I mentioned in my letter of May 2 there is a byelaw requirement that election of section officers is held with reasonable intervals. Another part of the reactivation of the section should therefore be to elect Section Officers for I must report at the February meeting of the Regional Activities Board about the status of the East Africa Section, which means that I must send in background material early January. It is therefore absolutely necessary that I before then have received a letter from you reporting from the November Section meeting and the election or Section Officers for Also I would need an activity pian for 1990 showing at least the minimum number ofmeetings required by the byelaws. I think the letter should be mailed middle December, in order to reach me in time. Could you also please on the same time send me a telex with a short summary of the content of the letter, in the case the letter should not reach me in time. You certainly could imagine the probable RAB decision, ifi cannot make a positive report about concrete actions to reactivate the East Africa Section.. Last week I visited the Deputy Secretary General of ITU, Jean Jipguep, together with the Chairman of the CCIR Interime Working Party on Future Public Land Mobile Telecommunication Systems, Mike Callendar. This Working Party holds 2 week meetings two times a year in different pans of the world. The group comprises many of the leading radio and telecommunication experts from Europe, North America and Japan. Two years ago the meeting was held in a Developing Country - Costa Rica, and the Chairman wants to have a new meeting in a Developing Country early At the meeting at ITU we agreed that a very interesting possibility would be to have a combined 1-2 day IEEE/lTU workshop on the importance of advanced mobile telephone technology for Developing Countries directly followed by a meeting of the Interime Working Pany in Nairobi. However, an important background consideration at this discussion was my report of an active IEEE Section in Kenya and that I could discuss the matter with you when we met in Vienna last weekend. I therefore regret very much that you had to cancel your participation in Vienna. An other reason, why I urgently need information from you with confirmation of the reactiviation of the East Africa Section, is that I promised Mr Jipguep and Mr Callendar to report back to them as soon as possible.... Yours sincerely c.c: Don Suppers, Basil Osborne, Walter Proebster.. ~... J~~~ (

O. :Box NAIRO:BI, Kenya Mr. Donald L. Suppers Director/Field Services IEEE Service Center 445 Hoes Lane Piscataway, NJ Re: Formation of Ken..ya Section, IEEE Dear Mr. Suppers: Dr. Walter Proebster, Director/Region 8 IEEE, has been in touch with us about the possibility of forming a Kenya Section of the IEEE. In January of this year, a mailing went out to all known members in Kenya. - based on a membership list received from Dr. Proebster. The enclosed signed petitions (16) were returned to us as a result of that mailing. A few weeks ago, we heard from Robert Winton, Region 8/Secretary, suggesting that we forward the petitiona to you. At the same time, he sent us another listing of members in Kenya. - one mich had 19 new names. We have, therefore, sent out another mailing and believe that this will result in about additional petitions. Upon receipt of these additional petitions, we will forward them on to you. Membership lists have changed surprisingly. Combining our petition responses with the IEEE print out lists, we assume IEEE members in Kenya. as listed on the attached. ~ sinoerely, i,i( SFX: 1011 STEERIIIJ COMIII'l"I'EE j,,~ Dr. Gordon W. :Brown, Secretary! cc: Dr. Walter Proebster attachment: enclosures: membership list 2 letters; 16 petition forms

4 November Mr. Charles S. Kuria Kenya Institute of Mass Communication Box Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa Dear Mr. Kuria: With reference to your letter of November 13. your mailing address is being corrected to that shown above for all your!eli:.. mail. We want you to know that all publications will be forwarded via surface mail and there will be some delay before you receive your copies. We are pleased to learn of your interest in forming a Section in Kenya and enclose information on the requirements to establish a Section. Our records show that there are presently 22 IEEE members in Kenya and we enclose a partial list of these members so that you may communicate with them and seek their assistance in formation of the Section. Also enclosed is a membership brochure. If additional copies are needed to provide to prospective members, we will be glad to send them to you, upon request. If we can assist you further in your efforts to establish a Section in Kenya, lrease let us know. Sincerely, ES:bon Emily Sirjane, Manager Member Services

Box Nairobi, Kenya OFFICE OF THE REGIONAL DIRECTOR Dr. Walter E. Proebster IBM Deutschland GmbH Dept. 3280, Schoenaicher StraBe Boeblingen Federal Republic of Germany Tel.: (0) Telex: June 9, 1982 Dear Gordon: with Bob Winton on vacation for the next weeks I would like to answer your letter to him dated May 21, 1982 and to Don Suppers of May 25, We appreciate very much the efforts of you and your colleges to form a Steering committee towards the formation of the Kenya Section. We will keep you posted on the essential developments in our Region and would ask you to let us know in what way we can help you. Contacts with several IEEE members in Africa have shown that there is considerable interest in the topic of Communication and Power Engineering. We communicated this interest to the IEEE Communication Society as well as to the IEEE Society of Power Engineering and found them receptive to the idea and proposal to plan an IEEE Technical Conference in Africa on this topic, preferably in Nairobi. This plans will be further discussed at our next Region 8 Committee Meeting in Copenhagen June 19 and 20 with representatives of the IEEE Societies which will meet with us there. To this end it would be quite advantages to have the formal establishment of the Kenya Section already in this year. I would encourage you in your efforts to send out another mailing to your members who have not yet signed the petitions and I would assume that you include amongst your addresses also those members who have so far not yet responded

Proebster IBM Deutschland GmbH Dept. 3280, Schoenaicher StraBe Boeblingen Federal Republic of Germany Tel.: (0) Telex: I relize that is impossible for this year to obtain 50 signatures which are normally required for Section formation, but I would hope that you will reach a number above 30, which would enable me to seek an exception ruling at one of our next Board of Directors meetings, hopefully already in Novemer 1982 in New Orleans. I would assume that Don Suppers will ask his staff to investigate why your membership lists have changed so surprisingly. Certain changes are to be expected but probably not as much fluctuation as you observed. The identifying marks on the computer lists mean M Member, SM Senior Member, A Associate, M First year graduate, member grade, PM Pending Member: to be reviewed by the Admission and Advancement Committee, S Student Membership. Again many thanks and best regards to you and your colleges sincerely yours, cc: R.J. Davey P.A. Okelo P. Peiser D.D. Patel D. Suppers B. Winton
