[AfrICANN-discuss] Web review January 15, 2015

[ymshana2003]

I would like our grandchildren to write a different story about Africa on the Internet since they will have more of global exposure. ..not like our generation of Yes-People who brought nothing to the table due to poor and inferiority complexities....

Sad to say so but its the truth..
