Alex, my silly long lasting impressions of the event : And to prove this, I'll be watching TKL and others. Until 24th July, I was not aware of the background activities. I'm now self assured by the above impressions that TKL as national operator to public networks and others will NOT be bringing undersea connectivity to kenyans until late september. There were 2 camps in telco industry in kenya ( new to me ). " Supposedly Expensive Private entity " and " Supposedly Cheaper Public entity". Lets hope for the best and may all our assumptions and impressions be proved wrong and the winner will be end user kenyans. I'll give this topic a rest..... :-) On Sun, Jul 26, 2009 at 12:27 AM, Gakuru Alex <alexgakuru.lists@gmail.com>wrote:

lack of celebration from industry professionals.
Or perhaps it emerged it was a KDN terrestrial fibre test/launch?
