[kictanet] PRESS STATEMENT BY MPAKE

[Ngigi Waithaka]

Bernard,

Interesting developments.

Briefly, what were the issues with the previous arrangement with MCSK that
the new organization will address?

How do you ensure you also don't fall into the same 'trap' as MCSK fell
into? I do remember how setting up MCSK was seen as such a noble venture,
but before long it became some individuals cash cow.

Regards

Regards
