| Date | 22:13:55, June 28, 2008 CET | From | Sekowan Independent Party | To | Debating the CP.0121.2598 Telephone Competition Bill |
| Message | Since currently Sekowo has a nationalized telephone service, new competition is a moot point as there are no real ways to allow them to enter the arena. Unless you suggest the government stop paying for telephone service, in which case we're forcing the people of Sekowo to purchase their own telephone plans, or else go without a telephone altogether... For the safety of the public, we believe all citizens should have access to reliable communications networks. We oppose this bill. |
