antitrust.co.za to esculate protests

[w1z4rd]

Once again AntiTrust took to the streets.

On Thursday morning between 07h30 and 09h30 Antitrust members protested on the busy intersection of Empire Road and Jan Smuts Avenue.

A 3 meter banner which read “Telkom is costing SA jobs!” and “Stop the rip off” was being displayed. Hundreds of flyers containing damaging facts about Telkom were distributed to all passer-bys.

Onlookers in cars, basses and taxis looked on hooted and waved in support.

Yesterday’s protest was prompted by the new billing system which is being introduced by Telkom on 1 November 2005. Protest will be esculated now, and volunteers are welcome to join.

If we can we will join, Just keep us posted. How can we coordinated a HUGE show with proper media coverage, LIKE THEY DO IN FRANCE. Block off the Telkom headoffice or the other. Frontline media coverage is what we need, otherwise we will just be brushed off by TELKOM as giving them some extra exposure.

I for one is to cancel all my TELKOM accounts where-ever I can and use MTN GPRS until SNO or other improves on broadband situation. Will save me R3000.00+ per month

Nice.. I will wager that there were many motorists with a wry smile on their faces that morning, twisting their steerings with bemused rage.

I vote for a protest on 16th December 2005 at Pretoria Parliament buildings. Lots of people will be having the day off and having a picnic. Good idea? I haven't seen a protest in Pta yet? (or have I missed it?)

Should be back in SA biting on Telkom's heels by then...
