[kictanet] [ke-internetusers] Re: Invitation to the 2009 Kenya Internet GovernanceForum (Kenya IGF); 19th August 2009

[Walubengo J]

Alex,

I feel like am trial here, but I can say that the only reason I am NEITHER in the "trenches" NOR with the "elites" is because I am in the Academics.  From that perspective am obliged to dissect, process and disseminate the ICT issues as they are - even when it may hurt the so called elites and occasionally those in the "trenches" ;-)

The moment I feel compelled to do otherwise, I will quickly join any of those who have chosen to "hibernate" and eventually disengage from KICTAnet accordingly.

walu.
