Telkom's future at stake

Greed! Do these people not earn ridiculous amounts 'legitimately' from Telkom? Why risk it with non-sense like this? Greed...
 
I wish were devastated and aghast at the news, but it's another semi-parastatal. :(
 
And it's a good thing this wasn't publicised through Wikileaks or nobody would have given it any credence. Kudos to the CWU.
 
A semi-government corporation being corrupt, wasting money, and not doing what they're supposed to be doing?? Shock, Horror!!

(This forum really needs an :insincere surprised look: smiley)

edit: Also, what's up with the article title, we all know that sumbitch isn't going anywhere.

Maybe the LLU could arrive before November 2011.Nobody to steer the sinking ship?
 
Just another day in the corporate & political world of South Africa under ANC rule - corruption, fraud, scandals, greed, theft and yet more tenderpreneurs. No surprises at all. TIA.

Good on the CWU and the whistle-blowers for all their efforts, and bringing this to public knowledge.
 
Here in Hartbeespoort we caught the telkom appointed security company stealing cables. They tried to atleast but stopped when we got there. Royal Guarding CC is there name for anyone who cares. Strangely when I was at a local telkom branch the consultant said its not the first time Royal Guarding was caught. Goes to show, some tall timber in telkom protected them......
 
So this has been old news for some time but only surfaces now... better late than never!
 
WHAT? You find this surprising? Who do you think paid off ICASA to fumble and **** about for the past decade?
 
Ok so now, does this remain a "Days-of-our-lives"-type of Drama, funded through copious amounts of money by all Telkom customers, with Telkom's justification: "it's to pay for infrastructure" when they clearly can't protect that infrastructure, or the alternative: could we surely by now be reaching the tipping point where with Mr. Hedberg in charge, it's surely going to start getting better now...? Simply quit with the corruption and bring the prices down so we can get somewhere? Perhaps my copper-thefted phone line can finally be replaced not too long from now, after having waited 3 years already now? *wait, never, that would be synonymous to a miracle* - that's why this bloody place is called a 3rd-world country: because of these corrupt morons... we have the potential, but the majority over here are obviously behind in education, or perhaps evolution ?
