Unless the Ministry of Technology, Communication and Innovation decides
to listen to the ICT Advisory Council, the latter will be regarded as a
"rubber stamp".

The council isn't vested with super-powers but citizens of Mauritius
are. How many people so far have shown interest and complained to the
TCI Ministry? The issue being, everyone is afraid of being bullied at
work through shadowed political influence. As long as people will be
scared and remain docile, no one will bother whether Ish, Avinash or
Logan are trying to push forward something.

I sent several emails to the Ministry, did anybody bother? I (you and
Logan as well) struggled for transparency in the .mu Multi-stakeholder
forum, did anyone in the TCI Ministry bother? Who have tolerated such a
culture? It boils down to be citizens.

Regards,
