  • way to go! Ochuka's holiday spot on!

  • Good for Kenya ...

  • spot on

  • CCK needs to regulate these cables or else the prices will remain the same. These guys have schemed in the name of "recuperating the costs of the cable" to not bring prices down immediately when they are getting it for 90% cheaper than from satellite. The companies Wananchi online, Safaricom, Telkom Kenya, Zain, Kenya Data Networks, Access Kenya all have some shares in all three cables SEACOM, TEAMS and EASSY....how will they compete? It will be a cartel like the oil companies.....
