South Africans had recently taken to social media about their concerns regarding high data prices. Minister Stella Ndabeni-Abrahams says they are also engaging with the country’s mobile operators.” We have asked ICASA to engage with competition commission because it’s important that we collaborate [so] that our people on the ground can get to realise the spin-offs of the work that we are doing. We are convinced that engagement advances and we are hopeful that a solution will be reached soon.
Major mobile operators Vodacom and MTN have two months to reduce their data prices by up to 50% or face prosecutionMeanwhile, Ndabeni-Abrahams say the introduction of digital resources at schools should not have to wait for the installation of expensive infrastructure. Modern wireless systems make the introduction of digital libraries much cheaper and faster. Ndabeni visited the rural area of Ndwedwe in northern KwaZulu-Natal where she unveiled a digital library learning centre with over 20 computers.
