Thank you, John. I too wondered what the connection was. Sorry, if that went off-line. My premise has all along been that: there needs to be fairness, transparency and professionalism in the sector; that there is emerging capacity/talent that needs to be nurtured and harnessed; and that the local industry needs to be protected. I'll for sure stick to that train of discourse.

And if someone wishes to go in the direction, they must do so on conclusive evidence or at least try to find a way to tie (disguise?) that discussion towards ICT Policies - e.g. what ICT Policies need to be in place to pre-empt such recurrence. If we dont stick to these guidelines, I foresee a lot of members un-subscribing...starting with me. walu. By the Way: I do love juicy stories, I just dont think that this is the space for them.
