I think some members might have taken each other's opposing pov as an attack on themselves which has led to the last couple of pages turning into ego battles. This will be last from on this thread for now.

Thanks for your response. I do consider myself guilty of whining for indigenization, i hope that's ok here. I sincerely hope those exceptions(tonbo & mku) you mentioned (who made without any institutional backing) becomes the norm. And hope its not a controversial opinion that govt contracts...
