I don&#39;t think it is Safaricom&#39;s job to help its competitors remain competitive. <div><br></div><div>I also think the platform should be opened to other providers ie banks, e-commerce merchants etc but not necessarily other mobile networks. There should be a common protocol used to interface between the various networks but this is a government policy issue not something vodafone should do as a private firm. <br>

is just wrong. Imagine if I cannot pay you via cheque just cause your bank and my bank are not interlinked. I think what <br>CBK needs to have a &quot;clearing house&quot; like banks do and for mobile money it can be real time. If safaricom really has superior<br>



products on the mobile front let them let us receive cash from yucash, airtel and others money and reflect as m-pesa balance<br>or M-pesa to the others. <br>Its about time CBK and CCK acted to enhance competition. <br><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"> </font></span></div>
