How can African governments help support this technological revolution to benefit their people?
I think the first thing that we’ve seen is that deregulation has been essential — taking away monopolies. That’s happened in a lot of Africa but there still is a lot of deregulation to do because some countries are clinging to monopolies either on the Internet or on the mobile network. So I’d say regulatory policy is the first thing. The second is a long period of negotiation on the East African fiber. It was delayed by lack of agreement among the governments about tariffs and access and other management issues and I think this delay has been very, very costly.
