Could Wikipedia be to slow to load in many countries?

Some information from ISPs in Kenya:

http://www.safaricom.co.ke/index.php?id=789

Safaricom provides broadband connections from 512Kbps to 4Mbps. These are listed as busines solution and only the 512kbps solution is listed as a single user connection so I guess this is a fairly high connection speed in Kenya.

http://www.ispkenya.com/leasedline-services.php

ISP Kenya gives connection speeds ranging from 12Kbps up to 2Mbps+ for their "leased lines" solutions. The 12Kbps is refered to as home/single user solution while the 2Mbps+ is refered to as a solution for a corporate client with a large LAN/WAN connectivity. Once again indicating that the average home user connection probably is very low speed.
