Dear Skunks, Recent developments in the mobile telephony sector are of concern …reminds me of a college adage …hate the game and not the player. I opine that for a true Capitalist society to manifest the market should be subject to forces of demand and supply to create conducive conditions for the market to thrive and in extension to ensure its longevity. However Oligopolistic and monopolistic tendencies in the market ought to be constrained to cushion feeble players and potential new entrants from eventual or outright failure, as such regulation is essential however regulations have to be moderated.
