[kictanet] CCK vs Safaricom?- and now Safcom vs the Rest?

Wed May 5 21:55:46 EAT 2010

I suppose the ultimate customer need to be at the heart of it all, so that
it does not
turn into a 'hide and seek' that we are engaging in. I suppose a number of
things need 
to be clarified to all the main players in this market on why we should take
up such a
policy line, for whose benefit is intended, and how it will foster growth
and progress 
in the sector, and for the overall country's economy. These are the
ingredients.

Regards,
Harry

Listers,

Did anyone listen to Michael Joseph on Radio this morning, concerning this
dispute?
Frankly I was rather taken aback by some of the things he stated the new
regulations require Safaricom to do, among them giving notice to competitors
whenever they plan to hold promotions!
In my view and I stand to be corrected, the solution to all this is enabling
number portability and may the best company win or retain the subscribers.
Something tells me that Safaricom would infact gain more subscribers!
On another note, soon after Michael Joseph's interview, the news headline
stated that the DG of CCK had stated that Safaricom was not affected by this
regulation because "CCK had not yet declared Safaricom the dominant player".

Can anyone explain what is going on?
