You should have implemented 3G and ADSL long time ago but you were waiting for competition. Are you sure you are highly competitive when on the Zambian share market you are number 3 and going into MTN 5 times when MTN is going into Airtel 3 times. Deliver than just giving us false hopes! And by the way start by improving on your customer care quality…!
