There isn't much information available publicly to ascertain their level
of progress. If ICTA didn't go ahead, then why they didn't? There is a lack
of transparency on what happened and what was decided.

Agreed. However, the Multistakeholder Forum appears to be needing a strong
"assurance" on the technical proposal. I think they trust "foreign
consultants" more than local fellows.
For the sake of information, isn't the Government Web Portal advised &
designed by foreigners?

The people from the Government seem to agree that "govmu.org" isn't
aesthetic. They discomfort is clearly seen.
