| you need to get local service jambo. |
diaspora! Too many Chiefs and Very Few Indians.
Halifa Salah: PDOIS is however realistic. It is fully aware that the Gambian voters are yet to reach a level of political consciousness that they rely on to vote on the basis of Principles, policies and programmes and practices. |

Unless you ask a favor to prince to arrange for you to borrow the device from his friend, it may be expensive for you to buy the device for short time. Plus, you may be asked to commit a plan if there is no pre-paid service available. The device would cost you from 50 dollars to 150 which may not be usable in UK. |

Jambo, my friend was in the Gambia for an extended holiday and he is an internet addict, so he swears that the tiny stick was the best thing that happened to Gambia.
I was lucky that he allowed me to use thumb drive for free... so i don't really know how much it cost. I think they charge by the amount of data transferred.
I don't think it is expensive and it is probably not a bad investment for a repeat visitor.
I tried to stay away from the internet as much as humanly possible-- else what is the point of escaping to Gambia?
BTW, most smart phones are able to check regular emails... |
