    Question Internet access in Namibia

    Are we really getting value for money as far as access to the Internet is concerned? What are your thoughts about the Internet and Internet access in Namibia?

    Good news for South Africa, and leaving us in Namibia looking like, eh, so last century once again. When, oh when will the Government and Telecom Namibia catch a wake-up? As Mbeki rightly says: Internet access is now fundamental to economic development, and it needs to be cheap, fast and reliable for it to make a meaningful contribution. So, ladies and gentlemen, any chance of us doing something similar to what the South Africans are doing?

    Parliament – Reducing the cost of doing business in South Africa received a leg up on Friday, with President Thabo Mbeki’s announcement that state-owned broadband supplier, Sentech, will become a wireless internet provider following an injection of funds.

    “Accordingly, we will this year complete the licensing and operationalisation of InfraCo,” President Mbeki said during his State of the Nation Address on Friday.

    “Already, money has been allocated for Sentech to become a wireless internet wholesaler as well as finance its digitisation,” said President Thabo Mbeki delivering his State of the Nation Address in Parliament on Friday.
