Hehe very funny walu. ... The other really funny one is the fact that most organisations don't have staff trained to manage these number resources or know the importance of keeping those afrinic records updated. (Consultancy anyone?) . Try querying the db for basic things on Kenyan isps other large organisations. Neither do they see the need for the things like ipv6 or dnnsec etc or the obvious need to even send someone from their organisation to the summit and afnog  ... or heck even training even when organised locally ..free of charge .... why would you represent such a bunch ?

@Barrack, @Ali,

I give free advice.  Unfortunately, some folks prefer to procure expensive advise from international consultants.  Perhaps I should also start charging, then folks might listen :-)

walu.

Thanks for sharing this information. 

Walu, thanks for bringing up this critical issue.

My humble view is this has been a major bone of discussion on this list.

Policy makers in this country are abdicating their responsibilities by not addressing these critical issues. We have asked and discussed issues of critical importance to this country without their participation. These ‘soft’ issues don’t seem to be at the forefront of the key decision makers in this country.

Its high time these issues are given the importance they deserve.

Thanks & Regards
