CourtesyMay 17 marks the 50th anniversary of World Telecommunications and Information Society Day.The day serves to raise awareness about the possibilities technology brings, as well as of ways to bridge the digital divide.Telkom Executive Group Communications Mooketsi Mochumi said businesses in Soweto will benefit from the venture.
“This is in line with our purpose of seamlessly connecting people to a better life and we think fibre is the next thing that will get businesses in Soweto to connect much better and open them up to bigger opportunities,” Mochumi said. “We are now in an information economy and to be able to do that you need reliable connectivity and fibre so far is the most reliable and the fastest connectivity you can get at the moment.
“We thought its important for townships to get that connectivity, the sort of connectivity that you don’t only get it in the suburbs but we are connecting the rest country as well.”

I snapped this yesterday at Protea North Soweto.
Why continue with the term Township We dont call Roodepoort or Germiston or Alberton a township, Alexandra is not a township its a subburb of Joburg. TOWNSHIP IS A TERM AS OUTDATED AS APARTHEID. TIME TO MOVE ON PEOPLE
Soweto is like another cawntry. ..they keep getting all the nicer things😏
Most Township libraries dont have Wifi, first get wifi to every Library in the Townships in SA.
And we will pay for it whilst they get it for free.
Wow. With the highest debt for eskom. 😊

ANC pinning hopes of winning Gauteng on areas liked Soweto and AlexANC continued to be confident that it will win Gauteng this morning after it dropped to below 50% claiming results from its stronghold areas will drastically change the picture. There’s a typo in your headline. He didn't know that DA's stand on land exproperiation* & internal squables will take away voters to VF Plus and Good Party. DA has only itself to blame.
