@LBenabdallah Yay! I’m so glad!

[Cobus van Staden @stadenesque]

So sad that @thechinaproj will shut down. @goldkorn @KaiserKuo and @robertguterma were champions of balanced, even-handed reporting on China and I was honored to work with them (and hope to again soon)

@CityPowerJhb Third day of no power in Richmond- how is it possible for you to suck so much?

@gijnAfrica @lseideas @freedomhouse @__datt @emekaumejei @witschinaafrica Just a heads up that this event is happening on Thursday 19 January

@cassroxburgh Stay strong, you’re an inspiration to LGBT South Africans

@BarbraStrident The enraging part is that while rich countries make these calculations they’re also dependent on the Global South for numerous crucial commodities and markets. The GS will have to become a lot more hard-nosed and united

@VoxTalk2Us Do you have any updates? The network is still down on our side

[Cobus van Staden @stadenesque]

@VoxTalk2Us Do you have any updates on the outage in the Richmond/Melville area in Johannesburg? Your call centre doesn’t seem to realize it’s happening

[Cobus van Staden @stadenesque]

@vumatel do you have an ETA for your outage in the Richmond area in Johannesburg? Your network has been down the whole day

@VoxTalk2Us Most of our neighbors’ internet is also out, so it seems to be a wider outage
