Has Greenstar considered the amount of discretionary income available for the services? Has there been an evaluation to determine what services local people really want?
We do not require any discretionary income to pay for the services. The economic model allows ecommerce to pay for all services for the community, plus bringing in hard currency to increase the wealth of our local partners in the village. We work very closely over many months with the community, its leaders and school teachers. We do not impose our plan upon them. We work with them as peers. We start with what they really want and need: electricity and communications.
