Huh?

“But we expect bandwidth costs to drop by 30% by the end of this year, and then SA will be almost on a par.”

Firstly, that's pie in the sky.
Secondly - how will 30% less get us even close to being "almost on a par"?
All that aside... how much of this is port shaped? Are they referring to another product... not ADSL I bet... how much do they pay for their bandwidth?

Have always wondered how they manage to compete on a cost of call basis with overseas firms, do these business's get special rates from Telskum?

The 30% decrease in bandwidth (if true!!) will obviously NOT be for the end-user. It will be Digicrap.

Case in point: Look at LooLoo's statement that our bandwidth prices is down 70%
