[Subject]: Internet levels the playing field

My access to the Internet forms the nerve-centre of my business. In South 
Africa the Internet levels the playing field. I have access to the same and 
sometimes more information, previously only available to a select few. It 
has given me the freedom to self-empowerment and to be independent without 
forcing any constraints on me.
