It’s almost 11pm and I’m preparing for tomorrow’s training seminar Minister Tasneem Essop(“Using LinkedIn and Facebook for Business” – see the event on Facebook here) – and to my surprise I just received an approval alert for a blog comment.

Minister Tasneem Essop has commented on the blog post dated 20 September (a photo slideshow of the Minister’s visit to the Bandwidth Barn last month). It brings a good feeling of relief to find that a politician can find the time to comment on a blog – to me that shows commitment and “connection” to the people on the ground.

I had never met the Minister before last month, but had heard about her many times before. Upon meeting her I was assured of 2 things: the Minister knew her role and governmental duty, and this is a real pleasant people’s person.

I don’t believe in flattery so this is not that. I’m just telling it like I see it.

See the Minister’s comment here…
