[TEXTILE GUY]

Great ..... but so f***ing what ......

Now, how many can afford an ISP let alone electricity, a modem, or a computer .....

The masses are going batty for housing, toilets, water and power (all for mahala of course).... and the ANC gives them ADSL and VDSL ???

Crazy stuff ....

 

[bekdik]

[abandonallhope]

Sure they did...

Like that time they blocked Korea Telecom, obviously because we all already had dialup internet.

 

[grok]

He meant they used our own money to give us sub-par services after they skimmed off the top and expect us to be thankful for the crumbs.

Sick and tired of hearing the same crap over and over! Make Broadband affordable already!

Government throw a lot of money away as it's for free on failed projects such as Sentech MyWireless R200 - 500 million and other projects...

Stop holding citizens hostage make local loop unbundling a reality and FTTH at affordable rates R500 per month uncapped, unthrottled 50 meg - 100 meg would be a good start.

 

[kianm]

Really Jacob?

 

[ToxicBunny]

So same stuff as the last sona then Jacob. You need new speech writers who can hide you and your governments incompetence better

He does have a tendency to lay claim to private company efforts, by lumping it with government efforts.

 

[wez1007]

Same old same old... Same topics different year...

Spot on. They were scared that KT would retrench too many Telkom staff.

*cough* and what is about to happen now?

Jacob's speech writer knows now matter what , that 60% will vote for ANC again.. so he just re-speech the same speech every year.

 

[unrealchris]

Zuma, you cant educate the people! Mindless zombies will always vote ANC, but if you give them an education and access to proper news, they might just stop voting for your cANCer party!
