The Telecoms Ceo degree article is wrong, in a nit pick way. They are not all Bsc Eng as indicated in the article, a good few do have Bsc Eng Electrical and Electronic from UCT though.

The one dude has a BS in Business Management and Engineering Technology from the states, one has a BS in Civil from the states, both Ohio oddly.

Laham has a BEng and the Neotel guy has a BTech. As far as I can tell Jannie Van Zyl doesn't have a B degree, likely Technikon trained.

Thami doesn't have an undergraduate engineering degree either, just a bs degree, and an MS degree in Chemical Engineering.

There are factual mistakes in the article...

One for the people, one for the mistakes. There was a lot of people questioning why only Bsc Eng degrees, and the article is wrong with a few people not even having engineering degrees as stated.

Ok, I see. I doubt they'll change it though - we mostly post spelling or grammar mistakes here.
