@Ali,I will try and explain and bill you later (since I know you can pay).A Hypothesis is a test-able hunch or if you want, a test-able statement e.g "I am pregnant" or 'My son is clever' or "Safaricom is dominant". These are all testable statements i.e. they are all examples of a hypothesis and they can turn out to be either true or false.How can we tell if they are true or false?You design and set up an experiment. And then run some tests. Pregnancy Tests, IQ Tests are widely known tests that are used to resolve the first two hypothesis - with minimal disputes :-)The Communication Authority must design similar tests to establish if Safcom is dominant. It may not be rocket science, but as Mblayo insinuated, it is not an easy discussion to have - unless you are hide behind tons of international consultant studies :-).walu.

BrianLet me latch on to that word Hypothetical. :-)
According to the English Dictionary this means:-'Supposed but not necessarily real or true'Need I say more? :-)Ali HusseinPrincipalHussein & Associates+254 0713 601113"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit." ~ AristotleSent from my iPadDear Ali,Solid points. My premise is that Safaricom has a "hypothetical monopoly" in a number of their product lines. In essence, they can increase their prices on these products by 5-10% and customers wouldn't have an alternative supply/supplier. This is the most basic litmus test for market dominance. (My friends from the legal, regulatory and competition vectors can correct me if I err.) It is a sensitive subject and please accept my apology for diverting from the genesis of this thread (Airtel exit) and belaboring the point regarding Safaricom's (alleged) significant market power. I'll rest my case and leave it to the powers that be to determine the best way forward.Yours always,MblayoOn Wed, Feb 1, 2017 at 4:02 AM, Ali Hussein via kictanet <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:Brian/BarrackVery true. There could be instances of abuse of Market Power. This doesn't stop us as customers and competitors to point these out. And seeking remedies. There must however be evidence of this and a formal complaint lodged with the Regulator and/or courts.The Chairman of Airtel is the one who started this particular firestorm of Africa Exit at Davos.So no fake news here.Brian, my major concern about Market Dominance is how we define it and execute remedies against its abuse. The assumption that I simply cannot agree with is that Customers are so dumb that they will continue giving Safaricom a bigger and bigger chunk of their share of the wallet because of coercion and lack of choice. We have choices guys. There are a number of player now that are not even telcos that are starting to chip at Safaricom's Dominance when it comes to mobile money..Not to mention the fact that cash is still king?I won't even dwell on the other aspects - voice, data etc. the competition is vibrant and competitors coming out of the woodwork. From places we haven't even fathomed yet.While the other telco competitors are mulling exits and crying foul of skewed playing fields Safaricom is busy sassing out who their next competitors are..Tafakari hayo (think about that).Ali HusseinPrincipalHussein & Associates"We are what we repeatedly do.

By the Ali and listers, i heard on Radio Airtel disputing claims that
they are planning to exit the African Market. Seems like we are
dealing with Fake news or what?

However in the telecoms industry, and morespecifically when we talk about a space with a limited number of issuedlicenses (call them competitors), things can go very wrong very quickly ifan eye isn't kept on a dominant player with significant market power (SMP)which can be abused to produce anti-competitive effects. It is also verynecessary to reduce the granularity of analysis almost to the product levelas a company can have varying levels of market dominance across differentranges of product offerings, a good example is m-pesa which has alreadybeen cited (my guesstimate is that Safaricom has about 98-99% market sharein mobile money). Thereafter a composite of the various dominances(sic)across various products lines would probably give a fair idea of the extentto which the company dmoinates overall.At this point it would be possible to determine whether anti-trustmethodologies, regulatory interventions, policy interventions arenecessary. At the crux of all of this is the strength (and independence) ofthe various regulatory authorities (comms regulator, competition authority,revenue authority et al). And of course underpinning all of this is thestrength of the policy, legislative and statutory frameworks that governthe space.IMHO the country is a the mercy of Safaricom's goodwill.

Can it be facing the same issues across the board, orcould it be simply not understanding the African market altogether?Way back when in the early days, I think they were first to introduce theconcept of sharing airtime called Me2U. I might have seen a TV ad or twoonNTV and KTN and that was it. Safaricom took the idea, called it Sambaza,advertized where wananchi were and the rest is history.

While Microsoft wasn'tbroken up as was initially suggested, they were forced to open up theirAPIfor the operating system to ensure that every developer using theMicrosoftWindows API got the exact same API.They were also forced to unbundle IE from the OS. If you rememberWindows'98, IE was equivalent to the Windows Shell. You used it upendeusipende!What did that do to other browsers, it killed them off one by one!When they unbundled the browser and gave users a choice on the WindowsPlatform we got Firefox, Google Chrome et.al....

Remember AMD gave us 64bit computing way ahead of Intel.It is not hard to imagine what 'illegal' things one would do if you hadafew Billion shillings to spend against your competitors with noanti-competition laws. You could:1. Pay every mobile agent to make sure they never offer services forother providers apart from yours2. With you advertising budget running into Bs ensure that yourcompetition never airs any Ads from your competitors, until you'approve'it.3, with your deep pockets ensure no 'bad' or illegal practices that youare heavily involved in are mentioned anywhere in the media. If anymediahouse airs any, you pull-off your entire media bookings from them untilthey 'shika adabu'!4. Buy the entire usable bandwidth from TEAMS without using it, simplytostarve your competition until they surrender.4. Buy the entire stock of your competitions 'bottles' to make sure theykeep on manufacturing news ones every time as opposed to simplyrecyclingthem.5. Ensure that no mobile phone provider pre-loads any competing app toyour core apps, whether they are sold on your network on not! If theydo,you simply cancel all their orders and voila, watu wanashika adabu!6. Ensure no one even dreams of selling dual-sim phones through yournetwork... yeah, this one was hilarious & true!Point is, Market dominance that ultimately leads to anti-competitivebehaviour, which ultimately stifles competition.Think about it, what-if, just before M-Pesa launched, Airtel Kenya whichI think was at par with Safaricom then, called their lobbyist and handedthem some seriously loaded brown envelopes to kill of the then nascentmobile money transfer technology, where would we be today?And that's why I shuddered when Equity came up with the novel idea ofusing SIM Card overlays, which Safaricom fought tooth and nail to stop,including using serious FUD, the Courts, Government bureaucracy et.alto stop an idea whose time had come!Equitel was *lucky* to see the next day. You could argue they had deeppockets!But, what of that kid in campus who comes up with MPesa reloaded, willhesurvive the onslaught? What if WhatsApp was a Kenyan firm, threateningtotake away crucial revenue from SMS from Safaricom as an example?Would they have been allowed to thrive?How many 'ICT practitioners' would have come out of the woodwork toclaimthat this technology was 'unsafe', 'untested', 'unregulated'?How many media outlets would have covered their success stories withoutfear of antagonizing their loaded telco customers?How many phone providers would have dared to be been 'seen' toadvertising Whatsapp on their phones?List goes on & on.My point is, market dominance without very solid & well implementedanti-competition laws stifles innovation big time.P.SEvery scenario I have picked on, on what I would do if I had a few Bs tosmoother my competition is hypothetical and likeness to any realscenariois by mere inter-galactic coincidence :-)RgdsOn Mon, Jan 30, 2017 at 12:22 PM, Ali Hussein via kictanet <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:JobI believe you are referring to two phenomena that are becoming commonplace today:-1.
