Wilson Ayong is a Cameroonian citizen who operates an Internet cafe in Johannesburg. He says the prices at Internet cafes are too high for many South Africans.
So why is it so expensive to get on the Internet in Africa's richest country. One reason is South Africa has too little bandwidth for its needs. And its private providers increase the country's bandwidth, they are making users pay the cost of doing so.
Even so the South African Network Society's Mr. de Lanerolle says Internet access in the country is improving. He says a new generation of Internet users from the country's middle class is quickly entering an area once reserved for the rich.
His belief is supported by reports that show Internet usage and access in South Africa has increased by more than 100% in the last five years.全国的很多地区都没有网吧。住在约翰内斯堡(Johannesburg)的山姆·吉纳从来没有上过网。
威尔森·阿扬(Wilson Ayong)是喀麦隆人。他在约翰内斯堡开了一家网吧。他说,对于很多南非人来说,在网吧上网的价格太高。
那么为什么在非洲最富有的城市上网还如此昂贵呢?一个原因是南非的带宽极低,几乎完全无法满足使用需求,而那些私人代理商在提高该国带宽时,却让使用者来买单。
南非网络协会的德莲洛丽(de Lanerolle)说,尽管如此,南非的网络接入水平也正在提高。中产阶级作为新一代的网络使用者,正在大量接入原本为富人预留的网络服务空间。
有报道显示南非的网络使用率和接入率在过去的五年间的提升幅度超过了100%,他也正是以该报道为依据而作出了以上观点。
