<b>ICASA says it will force Telkom to hand over its pricing manual.</b>
Langa says, “we will use all mechanisms to ensure that obligation is met" and "We view this behaviour as grist to the mill of those observers and commentators who believe that Telkom cannot be regulated" he said.
Opinion in the newspapers says this, “It is believed that Telkom is not in favour of using this mechanism to determine wholesale prices-something ICASA wants to do"
"Telkom said that as a listed company it had to be cautious about the manner in which non-public financial information was released."
This is not the whole article, but snippets I typed from the newspaper.
IMO where you see smoke, look closers for a fire.
Imagine if Telkom was doing badly, they would be letting ICASA know quickly about costs etc so that they can increase prices. In retrospect Telkom should have to provide these documents. Not only the members of MyADSL, but the whole of SA, know that we are been scammed by Telkom. It’s about high time we know the truth. The state as the major shareholder should release this information so that we can see the truth and we can get on with our lives. They are wasting time and the whole of SA is losing every day as we slip behind our trading partners.
