[kictanet] Airtel International Calls

[Andrea Bohnstedt]

Edith, I don't remember the exact details of the print campaign anymore, but
I think it was actually stated somewhere on the ad. Weren't these tariffs
actually advertised as KES3 calls to the US, China etc? Someone jog my
memory. Also, it's not that  complicated a website. I just googled 'Airtel
Kenya tariffs' and was two clicks away from the link.

Macharia Gaitho, today, you win. You can stick an extra typo in the next
Nation and I won't point it out! :) Take your pick: a gun-totting police
man? A curved niche? A greenbuck?
