[AfrICANN-discuss] NEWS: The Internet Society brings African Peering and Interconnection Forum to Tanzania for first time

[Matogoro Jabera]

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to extend my warm welcome to Tanzania and it is our hope that
this forum will bring together key players to address the opportunities in
interconnection, peering and traffic exchange in Africa

Besides the richness of natural resources like  wildlife, water bodies such
as the ocean, lakes & rivers and minerals, Tanzania is well endowed with
abundant significant cultural and natural heritages  which include
 archaeological, palaeontogical and historical resources ranging from the
Pliocene period about four million years ago to the present time.

For those who might be interested in visiting some of these places after
the event, visit the official website for Tanzania National Parks:

Regards,
Matogoro J
