Re: [WestNileNet] Bus Fairs
I have also failed to understand the charges for our route. Kitgum used to be 30,000/- but has instead come down to 25,000/-. Kyankwanzi used to be 20,000/- but last week i travelled at 14,000/-. Could our vehicles be 'drinking' a unique fuel type?

Considering the pain, suffering and loss the people in the region have incurred due to WENRECO's ineptitude in conducting themselves are the power supplier of the region, I think the people in West Nile should not allow that application to continue. I fully agree with Aggrey and we should should involve our MP's as this is a matter of service delivery. WENRECO can not continue charging the people for services they have failed to deliver in years, as if it the fault of the population in West Nile who made them not fulfil their business obligations. Moreover, they (WENRECO) has not even appreciated the patience of the people even when they failed to meet their contractual obligations for many times. Why should the people be responsible for the company's management failures. That application for tariff increase should be rejected, and infact this company should have been chased from doing business in West Nile long ago in my view considering what they put the people in West

[WestNileNet] WESTNLIE BUS FARES ARE JUST UNREALISTIC
Folks, Whereas the bus operators in WestNile set the pace of customer friendly bus services with every passenger having a definite seat, specific departure time (no arrival time), prayer before take off, no overloading, no luggage allowed in the corridors, excellent mail services and realistic stable fares even during festive season, things took a bad turn from Christmas 2012. Fares shot up from 25,000= to even 40,000= for ordinary. Early 2013 bus companies were levied some charges for not using the terminal per bus that leaves. This levy has been shifted to passengers. What remains unrealistic is why the fares rose by close to 40% yet fuel and terminal levies didn't rise by the same margin. I agree entirely with Abima, fares to other parts of the country went down but ours has risen, is there any justification? Can somebody find from MD Gaagaa (especially Caleb could do that) as to what provoked him (gaagaa) to move 'ambu' but not 'gaa'? Those of us who travel often are feeling the punch. Eventually costs of ordinary goods and services will surely rise if this is not addressed and poverty will dig its fangs deeper into the already economically deprived people. Keep the debate alive until something changes for our good. Aluta continua.

[WestNileNet] Fwd: Opportunities for those interested..Time sensitive
The Joint Japan/World Bank Graduate Scholarship Programs call for applications for the academic year 2013 closes on March 31 ! In 1987, the World Bank, with funding from the Government of Japan, established the World Bank Graduate Scholarship Program for mid-career professionals to receive master's degrees in development-related topics at renowned universities around the world. The Program awards between 230 and 300 scholarships annually and has awarded over 5,000 scholarships since 1987. We place priority on public sector employees, women, and people of disadvantaged backgrounds. Recipients must have several years of work experience and must commit to returning to their home country upon completion of their degree to apply their new skills to their country's development. Because the purpose of the program is to build capacity in the countries, recipients are barred from working at the World Bank or IMF for three years following graduation from their programs. Please note, the program is policy-focused, and does not support technical degrees, MBA, or law degrees. The scholarship is fully funded by the Government of Japan, and it provides full tuition and fees, a monthly living stipend, and round-trip air tickets and travel allowance for a 1- or 2-year master's program. The application is currently open, and the deadline is March 31, 2013. All of the eligibility requirements, selection criteria, suggested universities, and the PDF application form may be found on our website: www.worldbank.org/scholarships.-- International Institute for ICT Journalism www.penplusbytes.org ___ WestNileNet mailing list WestNileNet@kym.net http://orion.kym.net/mailman/listinfo/westnilenet WestNileNet is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).
