I remember several warnings that the fibre optic cable would impact Access badly,some disputed the fact. It now turns out safaricom owns at least 25%,of the Project with loads of cash and Telkom 20% of the project,Access 1% and no cash. The cable lands next month. Safaricom acquired Landline license through aquisition last year and has laid much more underground fibre infrastructure for voice and data applications than telkom,which will use its poles.

Business success is measured by market penetration and just how satisfyin n convenient product is to consumer....Access should prioritise n biuld up on its corporate end market...entry into home product has been overtaken by events...namely that flashdisk modem of safcom..if safcom got 15% of its clients to get the modem..that's approx 900000 home n small office internet users at a click of a mouse button. Access so far since 2007 has about 800k clients..ofcourse thanks to acquisitions! Woiye hawaesmek!

The race is not always to the swift..nor the battle always to the strong..nor food always to the wise..nor riches always to the intelligent..favor is not always to the skilled..or learned..but time and chance happens to all. Ecl9:5..

i understand digging the trenches for fibre is where the money currently is

Pirates may frustrate the completion of the project. They may demand ransom to keep the cable intact by demanding ransom. If you they do,you have to pay and if you don't,they cut the cable. Has the govt fully paid its share for the 25% ownership?
