Last year,
My friend upgraded his GirlFriend 3.1 to GirlFriendPlus1.0 (marketing name: Fiancee1.0).

Recently he upgraded Fiancee1.0 to Wife1.0, and it’s a memory hogger! It has taken all his space; and Wife1.0 must be running before he can do anything. Although he didn’t ask for them, Wife1.0 came with Plug-Ins such as MotherInLaw and BrotherInLaw. These too slow down the system and cause a slow drain on the resources and well-being of the computer.


Some features I’d like to see in the upcoming GirlFriend4.0:

1. A “Don’t remind me again” button.

2. Minimize button.

3. Shutdown feature – An install shield feature so that Girlfriend4.0 can be completely uninstalled if so desired (so you don’t lose cache and other objects).

I tried running Girlfriend 2.0 with Girlfriend 1.0 still installed; they tried using the same I/O port and conflicted. Then I tried to uninstall Girlfriend 1.0, but it didn’t have an uninstall program. I tried to uninstall it by hand, but it put files in my system directory.

Another thing that sucks–in all versions of Girlfriend that I’ve used is that it is totally “object orientated” and only supports hardware with gold plated contacts.

Bug warning
Wife 1.0 has an undocumented bug. If you try to install Mistress 1.1 before uninstalling Wife 1.0, Wife 1.0 will delete MSMoney files before doing the uninstall itself. Then Mistress 1.1 will refuse to install, claiming insufficient resources.

The latest measurements confirm that the world’s oil and natural gas supplies are running out too fast. At some time between 2010 and 2020 the world’s supply of oil and gas will fall below the level required to meet international demand.

The US government is aware that we are about to endure a disastrous international energy shortage. According to Dr James McKenzie, a senior member of the climate change programme at the World Resources Institute in Washington, USA: “That’s why we went to war in Iraq.”

We always knew the world’s oil reserves would run out eventually. The oil was formed by natural geological processes which occurred over millions of years. Oil consumption presently exceeds 25 billion barrels a year and demand continues to spiral upward, out of control. The outcome is inevitable.

In the 21st Century we rely on oil (petrol) and gas for transport – cars, lorries, ships, aircraft – as well as electrical power. We cannot survive without oil and gas, and when the supply runs out the great engine of Western civilization will finally grind to a halt. We are heading for an event that will be remembered as one of the great disasters of human history, and life is going to get harder for everybody as the day of reckoning draws nearer.

In the years ahead, wars will be fought over oil and fuel as the oil-dependent superpowers struggle in vein to preserve our unsustainable way of life. We are entering a period of great change and there are be difficult times ahead. The process has already begun. Students of prophecy will be familiar with certain relevant verses from Christian scripture concerning the signs of the end times (Matt. 24.8; Mk 13.8, Rom. 8.22; Rev. 12.03, 21.1-4). As it was translated in 1961 in the New English Bible: “With these things, the birth pangs of the new age begin” (Mt.24:8; Mk.13:8). Whether you are religious or secular, you should be aware that the tide of history is turning.

In North America, where we use far more oil than anywhere else on Earth, the vast majority (71%) of electrical power generation is entirely dependent on fossil fuels – coal (52%), gas (16%), and oil (3%). The world’s natural gas is running out along with the oil, and the coal supply is not unlimited either. Nuclear energy contributes only one-fifth to the US power network, and 7% of power is hydroelectric. Only 2% of US electricity production is from renewable sources. As we continue to burning up the world’s dwindling fossil energy sources at a terrifying rate, we simultaneously unleash catastrophic damage to the natural environment.

The Insider recently reported a wave of four major electrical power outages which struck the US; then the UK; followed by Denmark and Sweden; and then Italy, Switzerland, Austria and France. The effects only lasted a few hours, but each case was the biggest power failure in the history of the affected country. These massive power cuts were separated by a matter of days. The governments were only practicing this time. This is just the beginning.

It would be prudent to pursue alternative energy sources before it is too late, but the oil corporations will never allow this to happen. So important is oil as a resource that it brings great wealth and power to those who control it. Consequently, our corrupt politicians, whose power is lavishly funded with oil money, prefer to serve the short-term interests of greedy oil executives than the long-term interests of ordinary people like you. But as long as we have food in our bellies and entertainment to keep us busy, why should we care? Thus, it is the immorality and indifference of our species that ultimately leads to our own demise.

Nothing lasts forever. Like all the great civilizations in the past, ours has a limited life-span. A few years from now the Westernized world will reach the point where there is no longer enough fuel to sustain civilization in its present form. This will literally be the end of civilization as we know it.

Matt Asay’s recent comment that “open source is not a Silicon Valley phenomenon” has sparked a debate about the importance of location, and got me thinking about where open source software comes from. Meanwhile I stumbled upon the mylocalguru tool and before I knew it had created a Web 2.0 style mash up showing the location of some of the leading open source vendors.

screen.jpg

The result, available here, plots the location of the vendors on a map of the world and shows a reasonable spread across Europe, Asia Pac and North America.

You can also drill down on the various geographical areas for a more detailed view. Europe is here, Asia Pac here, and North America here.

The latter map shows how important the East coast of America has been in terms of the growth of open source in the US, but does not allow for the density of vendors in Silicon Valley. As can be seen by focusing closer on California, (enterprise) open source is now very much a Silicon Valley phenomenon.

What this map does not take into account, of course, is where the individual developers are based – it is a representation of enterprise open source providers, as opposed to open source developers – and it would be interesting to see how different that map would look (if it were possible to create one).

I’ll admit that the map itself doesn’t really tell us much – but it’s a work in progress and hey, it’s a Web 2.0 mash up, it’s meant to be vague, self-fulfilling and of questionable real-world value. If you are interested in how it was done, the background data is here.

As to the question of whether it matters where an open source provider is based, I’m reminded of this quote from the excellent Australian film, The Castle, about a family living in a house at the end of a runway:

“As the real estate agent said… location location location, and we’re right next door to the airport. It will be very convenient if we have to fly one day.”

I have decided to try and write a Flex library that will be used to connect Flex applications to MySQL natively.

Some of the current approches include consuming XML documents produced by other languages like PHP, JAVA and others.

I will make it expose methods like those found in MySQL Connector/NET.

The main motivation is to reduce the languages used in a single application (or package) and gaining more speed (not 100% sure on this though). Also I hope to gain more knowledge on Flex and ActionScript 3.

While using Connector/.NET to connect to MySQL I prefer accessing the DataReader fields using their names.

Like

[code lang="C#"]
string sCustomerName = dbReader.GetString("CustomerName") ;
int nSomeIntegerVariable = dbReader.GetInt32("AnIntegerField"); [/code]

I love doing it this way because I can reorder my columns without having to change the access code.

With the current connector, one should retreive the field Index (using the GetOrdinal() Method) and pass that ordinal (Index) to one of the accessors to get the value of the column.
I have been doing that but I found it cumbersome and decided to add some methods in the DataReader Class definition.

The methods I added are:
[code lang="C#"]
public bool GetBoolean(String name)
public byte GetByte(String name)
public long GetBytes(String name, long dataIndex, byte[] buffer, int bufferIndex, int length)
public char GetChar(String name)
public long GetChars(String name, long fieldOffset, char[] buffer, int bufferoffset, int length)
public String GetDataTypeName(String name)
public MySqlDateTime GetMySqlDateTime(String name)
public DateTime GetDateTime(String name)
public Decimal GetDecimal(String name)
public double GetDouble(String name)
public Type GetFieldType(String name)
public float GetFloat(String name)
public Guid GetGuid(String name)
public Int16 GetInt16(String name)
public Int32 GetInt32(String name)
public Int64 GetInt64(String name)
public String GetString(String name)
public TimeSpan GetTimeSpan(String name)
public object GetValue(String name)
public UInt16 GetUInt16(String name)
public UInt32 GetUInt32(String name)
public UInt64 GetUInt64(String name)
public bool IsDBNull(String name)[/code]

In the XML comments of each of these methods I added a line saying that
ordinal based lookups are faster.

The modified file can be accessed at
/dev/mysql/net/mysqlclient/datareader.cs
For those who won’t re-build the connector themselves I have also uploadead
a binary at
/dev/mysql/net/bin/net-2.0/Release/MySql.Data.dll

Sweden’s Supreme Court has told a woman that she cannot adopt her own biological daughter, who was born to a surrogate mother.

The woman and her then partner were childless, so enlisted the man’s sister as a surrogate. As surrogacy is not allowed in Sweden, the woman’s fertilised egg was implanted in the surrogate mother in Finland.
When the girl was born in 2002 the man was named father but the woman had to apply for adoption, the Juridik news service reports.

The adoption was approved by the district court, but after the couple separated the man appealed the court’s decision. The Svea Court of Appeal in Stockholm decided that the adoption could not be allowed without the father’s consent, and overturned the district court’s decision.

The woman appealed to the Supreme Court, which has now also said no to the adoption.

The Supreme Court referred to a case from 1973 in which it was ruled that a decision over an adoption can be reversed if one of the parents withdraws consent.

Two judges dissented from the Supreme Court’s decision, arguing that the genetic mother should be allowed to adopt the child.

The girl, who is now 4, has until now lived with her genetic mother and father. The Supreme Court ruling means the man and his sister become the child’s legal parents.

Reka ngire icyo mvuga ku nyandiko z’abandi banyarubuga bagize icyo bavuga kuri posting yanjye y’ubushize yerekeye privatisation mu Rwanda. Nkaba nishimira uburyo tuganira ku bibazo by’igihugu. Iyo rero uburyo bikorwa butanoze, icyo gihe ikabazo ntikiba kikiri
privatization ahubwo iba ari uburyo ikorwa, mu bihugu bimwe yakozwe
nabi cyane nka Ukraine, na Russia kuburyo ubu barimo barabisubiramo!
” (Shyaka)

Urakoze kubivuga ko muri Ukraine na Russia ubu bari gusubiramo Privatization. Icyo Privatisation yamaze muri ibi bihugu ni “creating a class of billionaires” gusa. Hanyuma bamara gukuramo ayabo, Leta ikongera igasubirana ibyo bipampara, ikabishyiramo andi mafaranga kugira ngo byongere bigire ubuzima, maze ikongera ikagurisha. Nyuma na none abazafata ubutegetsi bashobora kuzasanga n’impamvu zatumaga bigurishwa zitarafatikaga. Sinzi rero niba iyi gatebe-gatoki dukwiriye kuyifuriza u Rwanda.

Tugarutse ku Rwanda, urabizi kandi najye ndabizi, Rwandatel yakoraga nabi kandi impamvu si iyindi ni uko abayiyobora bashyirwagaho n’abanyapolitiki!” (Shyaka)

Nibyo koko RwandaTel yakoraga nabi. Ariko impamvu y’iyo mikorere mibi ntabwo tuyibona kimwe Shyaka. Ntabwo ari uko abayobozi bayo bashyirwagaho n’abanyapolitiki. Ahubwo njyewe mbona ari uko bashyirwagaho bakumva bari hejuru y’amategeko ndetse bamwe nta n’ubushake babifitemo . Ibi rero ni bibi cyane kuko niba umuntu atwara amafaranga ya RwandaTel (Leta) maze bigashirira aho kuko ari umunyabubasha bwinshi cyane, nta kizabuza uzamusimbura nawe kuyatwara. Urumva rero ko icyangombwa atari ukureba ushyiraho nde; ahubwo ni ukureba impamvu iyo bimaze kugaragara ko yakoze nabi adakurikiranwa agahanishwa juste kuvanwa ku buyobozi rimwe na rimwe akanagabirwa undi mwanya. Ibi nta kindi bimara usibye kuburira uzamukurikira ngo nakoramo azakoreremo rimwe atware menshi kuko nibigaragara ko yakozemo ashobora kuzavanwaho (Cyokora akaba abizi ko ntacyo azaba, ko bizashirira aho).

Iyo rero umutegetsi wo hejuru ahugiye mu kwiba amafaranga y’ikigo yashinzwe gucungira abanyarwanda, nta kindi abakozi bo hasi bakora kuko baba bazi ko ntawe uzababaza. Ntaba azi n’ibyo ikigo cye gishinzwe kuko aba yibwira ko akazi kacyo mu gihugu ari ukumugaburira gusa. Aha rero urumva ko hierarchie yose ihita irwara.

Byose biragenda bikagwa kuri “Mauvaise Gestion” na “Systeme Judicaire” idakora akazi kayo kubera gutinya abanyabubasha. Nk’uko nabivuze muri message yanjye ya mbere, ntabwo imikorere mibi yatuma dushyira igihugu muri danger (kugurisha ibigo strategique ku banyamahanga), ahubwo ni ukureba ko iyo mikorere mibi yavaho. Niba rwose ikibazo ari ugushyirwaho n’abanyaPolitiki, uwashyiraho se nka commission y’aba-Experts bakajya bashyiraho uwo muyobozi byakunda? Proposition yanjye yaba ko Leta yagumana ibyo bigo ahubwo hakigwa ku miyoborere yabyo. Nk’urugero, hajya habaho ipiganwa (riciye mu mucyo) buri myaka ibiri ry’abantu bashaka kuyobora RwandaTel, Electrogaz, … kandi bakerekana icyo bateganya gukora muri iyo manda yabo (ibintu précis). Bityo batakigeraho bakaba bagaragaye ntibongere gusubizwaho ndetse bagafatirwa ibyemezo. Kandi nk’uko mbyemera, ibyo bigo bya Leta si byiza ko bigira Monopole. Yaba iyanditse mu mategeko cyangwa se iyo byakwiha bikoresheje umutungo wabyo mwinshi (nka bimwe bya Microsoft). Buriya ntubibona ko Terracom ishobora kuzarangiza ibaye Monopole bikanabura igaruriro? Ishobora kuzakoresha amafaranga maze abandi bakabura aho bahera. None se Shyaka, wambwira icyo bimaze gukuraho “a state-owned monopoly” hanyuma ukayisimbuza “a privately-owned monopoly”? (byajya gupfa byose ikaba “a foreign-owned monopoly”).

Uko byagenda kose mu gihe twe ubwacu tutari twabona amafaranga ahagije, tugomba kwemera abanyamahanga bakaza tugafatanya, icyangombwa ni uko imyanya y’ubuyobozi byibuze 80% iba irimo abanyarwanda” (Shyaka)

Gufatanya ni byiza kuko abishyize hamwe ngo nta kibananira. Nkwibarize nti iyo compagnie iguze indi biba biri gufatanya? Njyewe numva atari byo kuko icyo gihe imwe iba ibaye “property” y’indi (Muri Maths babyita Inclusion aho kuba Intersection). Ikaba yayikoresha icyo ishaka ikurikije amategeko (iyo ayo mategeko ahabwa agaciro kayo) cyangwa ikurikije uko nyirayo abyumva (iyo ayo mategeko asuzugurwa cyangwa atariho). Ejo Microsoft bayiciye amande ya Miliyoni 32USD muri South-Korea kubera kwiharira amasoko ikoresheje amafaranga n’amayeri. Urambwira ko ubucamanza bwo mu Rwanda bureka abanyabubasha bibye bushobora gutinyuka Microsoft? Uko rero niko batatinyuka na Terracom.

Hari icyo nagirango nongereho ni uko ariya masosiyete aba ari autonome muri economical management and so the gov becomes a normal shareholder. any shareholder decides what to do with his shares anytime as long as he moves to a more strategic position.” (Gasore)

Njyewe informations mfite ni uko Terracom yaguze shares zingana na 99% Leta yari ifite muri RwandaTel. Assuming this info is correct, kandi ukaba ucyemera biriya naciyeho umurongo sinzi impamvu utemeranya nanjye ko biteye ikibazo.
Leta yacu kugurisha ibigo byayo si bibi na gato nawe uri umuprivate
ukaba ufite imari ahantu ubona udashobora kuyicunga neza urayitanga
that happens everywhere.
” (Gasore)

Iyi ngingo sinsobanukiwe neza impamvu uyivuze kuko Leta ntabwo ari “a private company or business”. Personnaly, I am a business owner, so when I find that a certain area is not profitable, I move to a brighter one. Should this happen to the Government? My answer is no. Ari ibyo Electrogaz ntiyazigera ishyira umuriro ahantu hadatuwe cyane cyangwa hatuye abakene kuko amafaranga yo kuwuhageza yaba ari gupfa ubusa (capitalism). None ni ikihe cyizere ufite ko Terracom izita kuri Rural Telephony mu gihe ibizi ko abaturage baho nta mafaranga yo kuyishyura bafite? Ariko Rwandatel, as a public institution, yagombye kuba ifite mu nshingano zayo guteza imbere itumanaho mu byaro. Kuvuga rero ko kugurisha ibigo bya Leta atari bibi na gato numva nagusaba kugira nk’ijambo wabwira bariya bakozi birukanwe nta n’icyizere cyo kubona akandi kazi kuko n’abari hanze barakabuze (Assuming that your mother or brother is among them).

Naho ku bushobozi usanga still tukiri inyuma iyo urebye surtout nka
performance y’ amabanki y’ abanyyagihugu aha ndavuga nka BCDI,
COGEBANQUE, Bancor, usanga zo zidashobora kutubonera loans zikenewe
ngo tube twagura biriya bigo
” (Gasore)

Bwana Gasore, niba UMUSESO waravugaga ukuri, bariya banyarwanda bambuye ama Banks yo mu Rwanda amafaranga angana iki? [Nyina wa] Gahima yaba yarahawe amafaranga angana iki na BACAR? [Unyumve neza ntacyo mpfa nawe ariko sinabashije kumenya icyo yari agiye kuyamaza kuko ni umubyeyi ukuze bihagije. I am sorry kumuvuga kuko nubaha ababyeyi cyane.] Urumva rero ko hano tugaruka kuri cya kibazo cya “Fair Competition” and “rule of law“. Kubera iki [Nyina wa] Gahima ayabona les jeunes ingénieurs ntibayabone? Ni ukubera ko na Banks zitinya abanyabubasha zikabaha amafaranga bagiye kubika kandi babizi neza ko batazayishyura. Ayo mafaranga ahawe abagiye kuyabyaza umusaruro, wumva abanyarwanda batabona akazi ari benshi? (Cyokora ubanza iki kibazo cy’amabanki kitajyanye cyane n’iri gurishwa ry’ibigo bya Leta tuganiraho).

Leta ni tuyifashe hasi, twisake turebe ce que nous valons, hanyuma

” (Rugura)

Rugura, gupigan[w]a n’abo banyamahanga ni ingenzi. Gupiganwa nabo ariko rero ntibishoboka igihe barangije kutugura kuko biba bibashyize muri “Position” itatworohereza ipiganwa ahubwo ibashyira igorora. Kandi wibuke ko babanza gukora “travail psychologique” yo kutwemeza ko ntacyo tubashije (ingero zirahari). Ibyo babishoramo amafaranga n’imbaraga nyinshi bagakoresha institutions Internationales. Cyokora reka twizere ko ubwo umunyarwanda ariwe utegeka BAD (ADB) bizahinduka maze akazi ko kutwoza ubwonko ntikorohe. Mr Rugura, do you beleive an act leading to a lay off of 40% of the Rwandatel employees has stopped our government from being a “care taker”? Virtually, Yes. In reality, No.

… even in China foreign companies have foreign presidents, … ” (Rugura)

N’ubundi ntabwo nigeze nsaba ko foreign companies zagira necessairement Rwandese presidents n’ubwo bibaye bitaba bibi.

Ikibazo nakubaza ni: Are there chinese state-owned companies with foreign presidents? If yes, why? If no, why?

Ni iki gitera some latin-american governments kwamagana imigambi ya Bush na IMF?

Icyo nemeza n’uko mwembi ntawaba yarasomye agreements zakozwe
hagati ya Leta n’abo baguze ibyo bigo,cyane cyane kubyerekeye

Uzi kuraguza umutwe rwose kuko ni byo koko ntabwo nasomye izi agreements. Uzifite waha abanyarubuga (nanjye ndimo) uburyo bwo kuzisoma. Usibye ko ntazi niba kuzisoma hari icyo byahindura ku mizi y’ikibazo nyacyo. Njye navugaga cyane ku mpamvu yatuma izo agreements zibaho. Kubera iki? Impamvu nabashije kumva (hear) ni ziriya zijyanye n’imicungire mibi kandi nizo nagize icyo mvugaho.

Mwabaye muretse mukareba difference y’ibigo

N’ubundi njye sinigeze ndwanya ibigo byigenga. Muri Posting yanjye birimo. Economie yo ubanza ntanashobora kuyigisha kuko sinyizi bya gihanga.

Mukamabano Claudine ati “niba rero tugikoronijwe ibyo simbizi ? kuko ikigaragara n’uko duha agaciro abanyamahanga kurusha abanyarwanda“. Nanjye nti mbona ubukoloni bwaravuyeho mu mpapuro ariko mu migirire buracyahari mu bwihisho. Hari uwambwiye ko muri Gabon barya inyama zivuye mu Bufaransa. Ngo rimwe na rimwe ujya gusura umuntu akakubwira igituma adafite inyama ari uko “Le cargo n’est pas venu!!“. Na none ngo Gabon bayihaye ubwigenge abize bayo batabushaka; bo bishakiraga kuba intara y’u Bufaransa. Wumva ibi bitababaje?

Mbaye mbashimiye mwese tuganira kuri iyi ngingo.

Subject: [rwanda-l] Re: Kugurisha ibigo bya Leta ni amakosa

Dear Vincent:

Thank you for your comment. The main reason you hear about
privatization in Rwanda is mismanagement, but whose fault? I also
believe that our government is mismanaged, should we privatize it?
As you know, we cannot stop the privatization in Rwanda. It has
become the quick way to get rich for members of the government. We
cannot stop it, but at the same time, we cannot keep quiet. At least
we have to say something even if we are preaching to the wrong
choir.
Frankly, we continue to see dirty tricks of scheme that deprive
Rwandan people of honest services. We the people have the right to
honest service from our public officials; it is a right, not a
privilege. You may disagree with me, but corruption occurs when
officeholders agrees to misuse their offices in expectation of gain,
as we continue to see it in Rwanda. The people have no say in the
entire privatization. Few unelected officials make decision for us
like we do not exist. Do you like that?
Our official owe to the public a fiduciary duty and that is what we
are demanding, and the failure to disclose material information, as
we saw in Rwandatel privatization, breach this duty and constitute a
violation of fraud.

We have to show that we disapprove their move. At least I as a
citizen, I believe I have that duty.

Regards,

Justin Gasana

Maze iminsi nibaza ku igurishwa ry’ibigo bya Leta nkaba nifuza kugira icyo mbivugaho.

Nibaza niba ari ngombwa ko ibyo bigo bigurishwa kuko nsanga impamvu zitangwa n’uburyo bikorwamo bidafite ishingiro.

Ibigo bya Leta bitegekwa nabi kandi ntabwo byunguka

IMF na World Bank zikoreshejwe n’ibihugu bikaze zitegeka ibihugu byoroheje kugurisha ibyo bigo bigamije inyungu zihishe. Kandi barabizi ko kubera Corruption yamunze ibi bihugu byacu babigurisha n’ababasha gutanga ruswa nyinshi. Igikurikiraho ni uko abanyamahanga baza bakigabiza ibyo bigo, bakirukana abakozi b’abanyagihugu, inyungu zose bakuramo bakajyana iwabo. Ayo mafaranga niyo yirirwa atangwamo Aide Sociale ku baturage babo naho abacu bicira isazi mu jisho. Ayo mafaranga akoreshwa mu mirimo inyuranye iwabo.

Ku bwanjye numva aho kugurisha ikigo cya Leta urwitwazo rwabaye ko gitegekwa nabi ahubwo hagombye gushakwa uburyo cyategekwa neza. Kandi birashoboka kuko ubucamanza n’ubugenzacyaha buramutse bwemerewe gukora akazi kabwo neza nta kuvangirwa bibayeho, abategetse ibyo bigo nabi bagahanwa by’intangarugero, bagasimbuzwa abandi babishoboye hatabayeho icyenewabo, hagakurikizwa ubushobozi nta kugabirwa, byose byatungana.

Ese noneho igihugu nikiyoborwa nabi tuzagiteza cyamunara? Nigeze kumva kuri Radio BBC aba-taximen b’i Burundi bavuga ko uBurundi bwabuze ubutegeka bityo bukaba bukwiye kugurishwa maze buri muturage bakamuha aye noneho abo ba-taximen bakigira kuba muri Kenya n’ahandi. Njyewe siko mbibona kandi numva ibi ari “agahomeramunwa” wa mugani w’abarundi. Ntibishoboka ko igihugu gituwe n’abantu miliyoni 8 cyabura abantu bo kugitegeka cyangwa kugitegekera ibigo byacyo. Biriya bigo rero byibwa n’abo banyamahanga babifashijwemo n’abanyarwanda bikwiye kugarurirwa abenegihugu. Inyungu zibivuyemo zikarushaho kugirira abanyarwanda akamaro.

Kuba ibyo bigo bitegekwa nabi ni uko bitegekwa n’abantu batabifitiye ubushobozi cyangwa se ntibahabwe uburenganzira buhagije ahubwo bagahora bakorerwamo. Ikindi ni uko hari abasabwa kubitegeka bakagira ngo barabyeguriwe; hakiyongeraho ko amategeko mu bihugu byacu agaragara nk’impapuro yanditseho zicibwa igihe bishakiwe n’abanyabubasha ugasanga babaye ba simbikangwa ibya Leta bikaba akarima kabo.

Hakenewe abashoramari b’abanyamahanga

Ni byiza ko hagira abanyamahanga baza gushora imari yabo mu Rwanda. Ariko rero gushora imari yabo mu Rwanda ntibigomba kuba imbogamizi ku banyarwanda bashaka gushora imari yabo mu Rwanda rwabo. Imari y’abanyarwanda nyibona kwinshi. Harimo amafaranga ndetse n’ibitekerezo. Kuba abo banyamahanga baba bafite amafaranga menshi ntabwo bivuga ko bakora neza kurusha abanyarwanda. Kubera ko ntawe umenya byose, hari aho dukeneye abo banyamahanga ariko si hose. Ndetse ushobora no gusanga muri Secteur iyi n’iyi badakenewe 100%. Urugero ni muri ICT. Isi isa n’aho yabaye igihugu kimwe aho ubumenyi butagipfa kwiharirwa n’abantu bamwe. Birababaje rero kumva ngo abantu aba n’aba ndetse b’abanyamahanga nibo bemerewe gukorera mu Rwanda bonyine kandi hatabuze abanyarwanda babibashije. RwandaCell, Terracom, ComputerPoint, … zihariye amasoko yo mu Rwanda kandi zigasarura zijyana iwabo mu gihe abanyarwanda bahari kandi babishoboye babuze akazi. Abo banyarwanda iyo bafite akazi barifasha ndetse bakanafasha na bene wabo iyo mu giturage n’ahandi. Iyo bafite akazi nibo bubaka amazu mu gihugu. Iyo bafite akazi nibo babasha kurihirira abandi banyarwanda amashuri n’ibindi. Iyo bafite akazi batanga imisoro izamura igihugu n’abagituye. Mu gihe abo banyamahanga basarura bajyana iwabo umunyarwanda ntibigire icyo bimumarira.

Ni ngombwa ko ibyo bigo bya Leta bibaho kugira ngo igihugu cyizere umutekano wacyo. Guha abanyamahanga ubushobozi ndengakamere mu rwego rw’ingufu n’itumanaho ni amakosa akomeye cyane. Guha abanyamahanga ubushobozi ndengakamere mu rwego rw’ubuhinzi n’ubworozi uba ushubije igihugu mu bukoloni. Babishatse bashobora guhagarika ubuzima cyane cyane ko amategeko yo mu bihugu byacu ntacyo aba ababwiye. Baba bagendera ku y’iwabo badakangwa n’ikintu icyo ari cyo cyose.

Umwanzuro:

Ibigo bya Leta bikwiye kubaho ahubwo hakigwa uburyo byacungwa neza. Bakagendera ku ngero nyinshi kandi zifatika z’izindi Leta ndetse zinarimo izishuka iz’iwacu muri uko kugurisha. Leta y’Ubufaransa ifite ibigo byinshi kandi bikora neza ndetse bikanapiganwa n’ibyigenga. Leta y’Ubwongereza iri kwiga uburyo yakwongera kugira ijambo rya nyuma mu rwego rw’ingufu nyuma yo kururekura. Leta ya Suwedi ifite ibigo byinshi kandi bikora neza kandi bipiganwa n’ibyigenga nta kibazo. Leta ya Noruveji ifite ibigo byinshi kandi bikora neza.

Icyihutirwa muri ibi byose ni ugushyiraho amategeko agenga ipiganwa mu bucuruzi (Fair competition) kandi ayo mategeko agakurikizwa. Na none ubucamanza bukwiriye kujya bukurikirana abanyereza umutungo w’ibyo bigo bya Leta. Hato ejo inteko y’abadepite ntizayoborwe nabi ngo itezwe cyamunara. Polisi y’igihugu nikora nabi yegurirwe abanyamahanga. …

Na none gushyiraho ibyo bigo bya Leta ukabiha Monopole byangiza ipigangwa umunyagihugu wese yagombye kugiraho uburenganzira. Bityo abantu bose bakaba bategetswe gushaka akazi muri icyo kigo kimwe. Ikigo cya Leta gishobora gupiganwa n’icyigenga kandi byombi bikunguka bikanungura abanyarwanda.

Njyewe ni uko mbibona kandi uwampora ko tutabibona kimwe azaba andenganyirije ubusa.
