[kictanet] The broadband mess in Kenya - and I'm so angry

[Harry Delano]

Guys,

Surprisingly, concerns being raised here are being met with a "deafening"
silence, by those in
position do something about this..!

I think the consumer demands better now. Can we see some co-ordinated,
concerted efforts to enable
the consumer enjoy the fruits of a liberalized industry to date, rather than
getting 'milked' dry..

Harry

Listers,

Reading the article, there is a sense that one mobile service providers is
operating a GSM monopolistic tyranny...So that we don't lose the bigger
picture(I.e the contribution this said provider has made to the
industry...read Safaricom), I guess it would help for the MoIC to organise
or setup up a desk where users can report their grievances, and then the PS
can take it up with the regulators...will this work,I don't know,however I
believe dialogue is key,can CCK do it,I DON'T think so...who can help sort
out the mess...PS Ndemo and if need be parliamentary committee on ICT...What
say you Hon.Rege?I am sure the Kenyan consumer has been taken for a ride for
far too long and its about time someone sorted out the issues soberly!

And by the way what does CCK do again? Do we need CCK?Can't the ministry
manage the whole telecoms desk so that we have some accountability
person...I think we have created structures (like CCK whose accountability
is to nobody and whose role is really questionable...!

My case rested..
