How about revoking licenses for call drops, unterminated calls, undelivered sms/mms, a truck severs a fiber cable, non-existent radio/TV coverage, delayed/lost postal couriers ? "clauses that ensure Public Networks maintain continuity. " Isn't that the obligation for state-run parastatals ? That clause was forfeited with privatisation. And if you read your ISP contract carefully, that fine print we most often miss out, there's a legal disclaimer to that effect. However, to ensure business (not welfare) continuity, ISPs are obligated (not mandated) to maintain redundant paths. The emergency leases on Seacom cable during outage will eventually be passed down to us, one way or another. ./bernard On Tue, Feb 28, 2012 at 10:43 AM, aki <aki275@gmail.com> wrote:
IMHO, Not that the visions cannot be met because there are probably people working hard towards such but it is unimaginable that the so called Telecommunications sector is hiding behind the cable cut as an excuse not to maintain continuity of services delivery. At this time, I suggest a full CCK investigation into the matter and the revoking of all licenses of the Telecommunication Sector Operators and Others who have failed to maintain the continuity aspect of telecommunications services. Are we saying ALL THREE CABLES have been cut? It is the duty of CCK to ensure that within the license provisions there are clauses that ensure Public Networks maintain continuity.

Let this be a serious eye opener for all, should we allow this kind of things to go on.
As usual corrections are welcome. :-)
