dc.description.abstract | The world has become one big village separated by common borders and exchange of
goods and services is rampant. Organizations engaging in cross border trade and
international trade must be able to develop and implement plans to take advantage of
their changing environment globally. The Busia border is a prime border for the EAC
and other neighboring countries in the Kenyan west. The border has been described as
hindering trade in the community and notorious for smuggling and corruption by
government agencies. This study sought to establish the processes that the One Stop
Border Post strategy implementation was pegged on and the challenges that may have
been faced. The study collected primary and secondary data which was analysed
through content analysis and presented in continuous prose. Primary data was
collected through questionnaire administered by an interview guide. The study found
that the one stop border post strategy was faced with some difficulties that slowed
down by difficulties and numerous challenges stood on the way to successful
implementation. It recommends high level involvement and consultations donors and
all the government and private stakeholders. Limited time guide, conducting a case
study v/s a survey, and public office code of conduct restrictions to give information
were the main limitations to the study. Suggestions to further studies are highlighted
as; a replica study in other border stations; in areas where different organizations are
implementing a common strategy; a survey as well as replica study conducted through
interview. | en |
