Way to go guys! Its time we stopped acting like

If Telkom Kenya is sold to foreigners, the marginalised
areas will not be accessed with telephone. Their aim will be to make profits,
and if there are no returns by sending telephone lines to those areas, they
would rather not do it - That is a sure way of undermining development
in teh country. The goal of a private investor is to make profits, so why
should they spend money where they wont make returns. |

We all have seen the effects of a foreign minority
controlling huge percentages of country economies, leaving the native majorities
in poverty. I believe that Kenya has the overwhelmingly huge potential to
grow and cater for it's people. I don't see why we should have a foreign
minority running one of our countries corporate gold mines. |

I think that any future development in the telecommunications

into the Kenyan economy (as opposed to foreign economies).Let's keep this
industry Kenyan by all means. We too can realise astronomical profits if
given a chance. The end does not justify the means. Make a little money now
is like selling our birthright for a short-term goal.That's my two cents. |

GOK should consider this sale through NSE even
if the company is making losses, the GOK should probably look for local

NSE listing. We have known from the past thqat there is a lot of money in
kenya and no need to through away Telkom for few pounds. |

Yes,selling to private investores is a good
idea but seeling also to Kenyan compines,is something that should be tried
if individual kenyan bussiness people have no money But we should stop thinking
that our own is not better.While we seethat we who are out here participate
in contriuting ideas which promotes advancement to economies of where we
are while at home things are the opposite. |
