I salute you guys for what you are doing and thanks in advance. 

Mya Gods blessings be upon you.</description>

		<description>I have been thinking about this for a while. Has the growth in internet penetration affected farmers, students, buisness owners, workers in CSOs, students and so on. Here is a chance to have your say. This chance can be used by telecentre practitioners, community foundations, Civil Society Organizations, Public Access Centers like public libraries and so on. Please visit the BBC and send your comments.</description>

		<description>Dear Colleagues

This is a valid observation ...
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
Kenya: Rural Folk to Miss Out On Cheap High Speed Internet
Majority of Kenya’s Internet service providers have no capacity to supply downstream consumers with fibre optic bandwidth, leaving room for a few players, who may use the advantage to keep prices high.It has emerged that only six ISPs – mainly the big telecoms firms – have the right of use with the TEAMs cable or have bought capacity at Seacom.
They are Telkom Kenya, Kenya Data Networks, Safaricom, Jamii Telecoms, AccessKenya, Essar Telecoms and Wananchi Group.Connecting consumers to the fibre optic platform requires an elaborate terrestrial network that only a few companies have the ability to build and run profitably.
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
I would argue, however, that 6 competitors is OK and enough to get competition ... in fact, maybe too many to get the most cost effective elaborate widely accessible network. I would also suggest that one way to make the telecom organizations and government responsive to the price issues is to make easy access to the price information the norm rather than the exception ... where is price information easily accessible ... and if it is not easily accessible ... why not?

Sincerely
