Kweli! As a consumer I have ripped off by safaricon for years so I welcome Airtel's aggressive pricing that has made calling reasonably priced. If not for airtel we would still be paying 12/- for local calls. If not for Airtel, calls to the UK & USA would be 20/-!!!
As an investor, I have bailed from safaricon since the margins on voice [data is growing but voice is dominant] have dropped like a rock in 2011-12.
