In trying to improve on the arising Internet Statistics,
the Report set out specific recommendations for the
Regulator(CCK) some of which are summarised by Category
below.

1.Network Infrastructure (CCK Action Points)
*Build National Fiber Infrastructure
*Merge ISP & IGO Licenses(Create DCNO licenses)
*Make SLA (Service Level Agreements) mandatory for
Operators
*Operate the National Internet eXchange Point (KIXP) on a
PPP basis

2. Affordability (CCK Action Points)
*Make Tariff Publishing Mandatory of (Internet) Operators
*Require Flat-rate or Volume Based Pricing for Dialup &
Mobile Internet Services
*Increase competition for Fixed Line and Mobile Services

3. Dispersion (CCK Action Points)
*Fund Annual 'Demand-Side' Internet Studies
*Develop National Information Infrastructure
*Review and implement Univesal Access Fund/Strategy

Again, Operators, Consumers, Govt, Regulator, Academia and
others Lets hear your views.  To what extend do you think
the above action points will improve on the status of
Infrastructure, Affordability and Dispersion?  More
importantly, why do you think some of the Action Points
will not fly (work)? And what specific changes would make
them work? 

We have upto Friday 11th May on this conclusive phase. Lets
think 'beyond' the box and plse don't hold back your ideas,
the more unconventional the better ;-).
