Telkom is a South African government owned monopoly. They are slow, cumbersome and horribly expensive. I am talking about R1 for about 15 seconds on a LAN line to a cellphone using a public phone.

They are part public now.

Must be some of these transgender pigeons from South Africa. Same breed as Caster Semenya.
