[Kictanet] Re: ICT Convention 2006

[David Sparrow Malaba]

Dear All,
We held a successful seminar for Trade Union Movement
and Labour on the National ICT Policy. They were
appreciative but felt left out of the stakeholders
forums. Could we consider inviting them to attend and
participate at the planned 2006 ICT convention?.

Thanks.

David Malaba
