Listers,<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>I just watched the above mentioned presentation on Citizen Tv and i must commend all involved in the production for a great job, however i have the following observations:</div><div>
<br></div><div>The advert looks a bit alien yet it is meant to capture the attention of  Mwananchi in Mararal, why cant we consider the use of local languages say Kiswahili, at least an average villager can understand the Language.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Secondly i was hoping there would be a component to advocate for preservation of the cable as a strategic national resource, you will all agree with more homes embracing Fibre and triple pay services, downtime will be intolerable in the near future, the key problem has been vandalism, why cant we educate the public to desist from such in the same breath, i remember participating in a radio interview with an international station when the Seacom cable landed and they asked me to do it in Swahili, it took me a back but the strategy was clear, educating the common man in a language they understand.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I remember Robert Yawe raising the issue of communication strategy in a recent meeting we had on Digital Villages, hence my reason for raising the flag hopefully before the billboards and newspaper adverts go out there.<br clear="all">
