[kictanet] Row Erupts Over Financing of Teams Cable Deal

[John Walubengo]

...sounds like double-trouble coming up.  Maybe the 
KDN+Indian partnership might be the first one to touch-base
at Mombasa after all.  I wonder if it is still on... Also
what could be the state of the others? They used to be:

1. EASSy
2. TEAMs
3. KDN (FLAG??)
4. SEACOM?

Am sure one of them would finally come through...
