Its just a few weeks before CCK review the interconnection charges,safaricom was the first to show disapproval with the move followed by as usual Telkom kenya cum orange.

Airtel and YU are quite silent not like last year when they were enthusiastic about the reduced Rate are they feeling the heat too, but want the big boys to fight for them or are they just waiting for the right moment to plunge into the Mix.

The other thing is will the Govt allow CCK to go ahead with the plan given KRA had earlier indicated the loss of revenue due to the revision last year.

The opposition to the revision of interconnection charges down ward is not limited to Kenya but to all of Africa.There is growing concern the falling revenue might lock out New players who might want to invest here as well as impede the rapid growth of the sector which has been phenomenal over the last decade.

People need to understand a govt.s basic role. Which is simply facilitate. In this whole debacle GoK only cares that Kenyans communicate cheaply baada ya hapo business pple wajisaidie, ukitoboa..good on you. Another example I can site is the GoK push for availabilty & access of internet-this gave rise to Popote Wireless..now we don't see them popote! Now GoK is pushing for more financial inclusion...several depo.taking MFI's are coming up..how long do u see them lasting when our old gaurds like KCB, CO-OP & EBL are trading down via Agency banking???

Has it been implemented yet Because YU and safaricom have adverts offering very nice on net offers.
