gh&AAd Aff 9 WnaCAdAt ADDIS ABABA UNIVERSITY AAAN ANf i MtrR$g Addis Ababa,ETHIOPIA 47 Date €TC Ms. MR.Salas . Ref.No. Secretary ~ Federal Communication Commission The Portals ' 445—12th Str. S.W. Washington D.C. 20554 SUBJECT: Amendment of AfriSpace Inc.‘s Application. File No CSS—90—017 [IBFS FILE NO. SAT—LOA——19900723—00002]; Amendment File No. SAT—AMD—19990125—00016 (CALL Sign 52367). I am familiar with the history and mission of AffriSpace Project. Specifically, when one of the founders was sensitizing Ethiopians on the relevance of the project, many of us were impressed of the immediate needs of such a project. At the time, I was heading the newly established Affirmative Action Office at Addis Ababa University. I therefore took stock of the enormous potentials of AffriSpace‘s technology in promoting the objectives of my Office—to reach educationally disadvantaged populations residing in remote regions of the country. Madam: Ethiopia is a country where "information technology" is least known and least — accessible to the majority of the people. Our government is drafting a law which allows non—governmental public broadcasting systems. AffriSpace will have a significant role to play in term of wider coverage and cost—effect methods of upgrading knowledge and information. I am of the opinion that a large number of Ethiopians will benefit from the Project. Therefore, I am appealing to you to give us the opportunity to be the primary beneficiaries of the Project. After all, the entire world is becoming closer as a result of the innovative commitment of people in AfriSpace Inc. Thank you in advance. I remain Madame!
