What must really be done to improve broadband in South Africa

President Cyril Ramaphosa recently unveiled the government’s economic recovery plan, which included plans to reduce data costs and expand broadband access to low-income households.

He highlighted that the release of high-frequency spectrum by March 2021 and the completion of digital migration will reduce data costs for firms and households.

Unfortunately the incumbent guavament prefers to have its fingers in the pie which is why spectrum hasn't been released.

News reports suggest Squirrel has given Stella a deadline of first quarter of 2021 to release the spectrum.

Meh, not holding my breath.
