Is Telkom’s infrastructure building process progressing well?

Yes.

September stated ‘…that Telkom’s infrastructure building process was progressing well to adequately meet the demands of bandwidth hungry applications’ (Telkom profits down, MyBroadband, 19 November 2007). He went on to stress the outmost importance of this ‘…as Telkom is a key partner in delivering the 2010 FIFA World Cup to the global community’ (Telkom profits down, MyBroadband, 19 November 2007).

ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa) welcomes Telkom’s financial results for the reported period. Although we will have no delight in another’s misfortunes, we are sure that the drop in headline earnings in particular, is a sign that we’re starting to move closer and closer to where we want to be in terms of telecoms in South Africa. The fight is however far from over.
