<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.aggreko.com/">The Aggreko S</a>handuka cross-border power project, located at Ressano Garcia in Mozambique has been awarded Africa’s Best Fast Track Power Project in 2012 at the Africa Energy Awards. The award ceremony took place during the gala dinner of the Power and Electricity World Africa conference and exhibition being held from the 8th to 11th of April in Johannesburg.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Commissioned in July 2012, the Ressano Garcia project is recognised as the world’s first interim cross-border IPP (Independent Power Provider) project. Utilising natural gas from Mozambique’s Temane gas fields, the output of the plant is being injected directly into the national grid of Mozambique on site via a purpose built substation. The project saw the generation and supply of 110 MW of power to Electricidade de Mocambique (EDM), the national utility of Mozambique and cross-border to Eskom, the South African national utility. </span>  <br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">While being a highly innovative project in terms of delivering much needed power to both countries, the judges where impressed by the truly fast-track nature of the project. Commissioning the project, from first breaking ground to being fully operational, took less than four months. This included a substantial civil infrastructure programme involving the building of access roads, a 1.2 km high pressure gas pipeline, gas processing and de-pressurising infrastructure, a major substation and 1.5 kilometres of 275 kV transmission line.</span>  <br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">The project is connected to the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) which links the power grids of nine Southern African countries. Taking advantage of this exceptional transmission infrastructure and the flexible nature of Aggreko’s power installations, on March 14th 2013 Aggreko  announced that it would extend the Ressano Garcia facility to add an additional 122 MW. Coming on-line within the second quarter of 2013, this additional power will be shared between EDM and NamPower, the Namibian national utility and bring the total generating capacity of Ressano Garcia to 232 MW.</span>  <br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">“To realise a project of this scale and complexity, the global resources of Aggreko were mobilised to project manage and engineer the installation of Ressano Garcia. This capability coupled with the expertise of our partnering contractors and customers, working together as one team resulted in the successful delivery of this remarkable project,” commented Ron Sams, Global Operations and Technology Director, Aggreko.</span>  <br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">“We are thrilled to receive this award in conjunction with our partner Aggreko,” commented Phuti Mahanyele, CEO, Shanduka Group. “Access to sufficient and stable power supplies creates tremendous value for the development of the region. This project has also brought significant benefits to the local population, providing increased employment opportunities, stimulating wider economic activity and, through Shanduka’s Adopt-a-School Foundation, assisting in the development of a local primary school, Escola Primaria Completa De Ressano Garcia.”</span>  <br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Commenting on the award James Shepherd, Managing Director, Aggreko Southern and East Africa, “I’m delighted that what is indeed a unique and ground-breaking project has been recognised as such by our industry peers. Building a power plant of such size and complexity, on a completely greenfield site, in less than four months is truly remarkable. This award recognises the vision and hard work of the project team from Aggreko and Shanduka, our customers EDM and Eskom and all the partners that made this project such a resounding success.”</span></div>

Lakini nakishukuru kikosi cha Zima moto na Uokozi Zanzibar kilichosaidia kuuzima moto huo katika kipindi kifupi sana”. Alieleza Bwana Hemd. <br /><br />Bwana Hemed alisema eneo lao la biashara limekuwa  likikumbwa na wizi wa mara kwa mara unapelekea kuwavunja moyo katika harakati zao za kujitafutia riziki kupitia sekta hiyo ya biashara. <br /><br />Hata hivyo Mfanyabiashara huyo wa biashara ya vyakula mchanganyiko bwana Abdulla Hemed Khamis alishindwa kukisia hasara halisi iliyompata kutokana na moto huo. <br /><br />Naye kwa upande wake Mkuu wa Makontena hayo Bwana Suleiman Masuod aliiomba Serikali kushajiisha  Wawekezaji  kufikiria kujenga majengo makubwa ya Biashara { Shooping Mole } kwa lengo la kuwaondolea usumbufu wafanyabiashara wa ngazi ya kati. <br /><br />Bwana Suleiman alimueleza Balozi Seif kwamba majengo hayo yanastawisha maeneo ya mji na kutoa haiba inayovutia kwa vile majengo la makontena hayatoi sura nzuri. <br /><br />Othman Khamis Ame </span>    <span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>

Mwihava amesema, Tanzania iliridhia Mkataba wa Umoja wa Mataifa kuhusu Bioanuai mwezi machi , 1996 na kufuatiwa  na Mkutano wa wanachama ulioazimia kuandaa itifaki kuhusu  usalama wa Mazingira dhidi ya Athari za Bioteknolojia ya Kisasa. <br /><br />Itifaki hiyo pamoja na mambo mengine inasisitiza nchi wanachama kuandaa Sheria na kuweka mfumo na mwongozo wa Usimamizi salama wa Mazingira na kulinda afya ya binadamu, bioanuai na wanyama. <br /><br />Aidha, lengo la teknolojia ya Kisasa ni kukidhi haja ya kuimarisha ubora, kudhibiti magonjwa, kuhimili ukame na kukuza uzalishaji. Hata hivyo imebainika kuwa bado kuna wasiwasi wa athari zinazoweza kupatikana kutokana na teknolojia hiyo endapo itatumiwa bila kufuata utaratibu. “kwa hiyo tumewaita ili kujadili na kutoa maoni kuhusu utekelezaji wa Kanuni hizi ili tupate mwelekeo wa suala hili na kuishauri Serikali’. Alisisitiza Eng. Mwihava. <br /><br />Akitoa maezo ya awali, Mkurugenzi wa Idara ya Mazingira, Ofisi ya Makamu wa Rais Dkt. Julius Ningu amesema kuwa lengo la kanuni hizo si kuzuia au kukwamisha matumizi ya Bioteknojia hapa nchini bali ni kuhakikisha nchi inanufaika na matumizi hayo kwa kuzingatia usalama wa afya ya binadamu na Mazingira. <br /><br />Aidha baadhi ya wadau katika kikao hicho walikuwa na maoni tofauti na kuitaka Serikali kupitia upya kanuni na kufanya tathmini ya kuondoa ama kuacha kuondoa kipengele cha Strict liability. <br /><br />Mkutano huo umehusisha wanasheria, wanasayansi, Mtandao wa wawakilishi wa wakulima na Taasisi za Utafiti za Mbegu, hususan Pamba na Mahindi.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.sanlam.co.za/">Sanlam</a> Emerging Markets (SEM), the division within the Sanlam Group  tasked with international expansion, says it is well on track to deliver on its mandate of supporting the Sanlam Group objective of becoming a leading financial services player in selected emerging markets.<br /> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This is in line with the Sanlam Group strategy which defines emerging markets as one of the key areas to be exploited for potential growth in the business. </span>   <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Sanlam Group Chief Executive Dr Johan van Zyl has stated that: “In 2011 Sanlam’s international business contributed around 15% of operating profit (pre-minorities). Our view is that this contribution can be doubled over the next five years as these markets are seen as key growth engines. Considerable work continues to be done to identify core markets for expansion.”</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Earlier this month Sanlam Group announced financial results for the year ended December 2012 and reported that SEM delivered gross operating profit of R850 million, up 30% from R656 million in 2011. SEM is expected to deliver a compounded annual growth rate of (CAGR) 17% between 2011 and 2015.</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />SEM CEO Mr Heinie Werth says the company is pleased with the progress made by the business cluster responsible for Sanlam’s expansion in emerging markets outside South Africa. </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Currently, SEM is doing business in 10 countries in Africa, excluding South Africa and Namibia, as well as India and Malaysia. </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />In 2012 SEM concluded transactions to the value of roughly R3 billion. In the first quarter of 2013 a further transaction worth approximately R1 billion with Shriram Transport Finance Company was concluded. </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />For the 2012 financial year, SEM managed to increase gross operating profit from its Indian operation (Shriram) by 750% from R4 million to R34 million. With the Shriram transactions completed in 2012, a contribution of approximately R400m in profit is expected in 2013. </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Gross operating profit for Namibia increased 10% to R225 million and 20% for Botswana to R499 million. For the rest of Africa, the businesses managed to increase gross operating profit by 134% to R117 million.</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Among the highlights was the Nigeria operation which has managed to break even within two years of its launch, testimony to SEM’s low cost expansion model in Africa.</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Says Werth: “We are making steady progress towards our objectives and we are satisfied that the cluster is well positioned to increase its contribution to the Group over the next five years as the markets we operate in are seen as key growth engines.”</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />In addition, Werth says strong local partnerships play an important role in the company’s performance: “We rely on strong local partners and management to drive business growth within each country and this has been mutually beneficial in India and in our operations in Africa.”   </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Sanlam has been in partnership with the Indian Shriram Group in respect of life insurance (Shriram Life) since 2005 and short term insurance (Shriram General) since 2008. </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />SEM was established in 2011 as a separate cluster within Sanlam to focus exclusively on emerging markets. As part of the restructuring, operations outside of South Africa formerly managed within SPF, Sanlam Developing Markets, Santam and Sanlam Investments were transferred to SEM. The integration of these businesses within SEM was successfully completed during the first half of 2012, without losing operational focus. </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />“We take a number of factors into account when investing. These include potential market size, growth potential, market accessibility, general business environment, specific information around financial services in life insurance, asset management and retail credit in the countries in which we operate as well as those in which we seek opportunities. </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />“A key focus area for SEM is South East Asia. To this end, we have already taken the first steps with the transaction in December to acquire a 49% stake in Malaysian short term insurer Pacific & Orient Insurance Co. Berhad (POI). Earlier this month their shareholders voted overwhelmingly in favour of the transaction.”</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />SEM continues to focus on growing the Group’s stake in existing operations. In 2012, SEM concluded some major transactions and the Group redeployed a total of R3, 3 billion of its discretionary capital during the year. The bulk of this was invested in SEM initiatives.</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Some highlights of 2012 include:</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />-          A further R2 billion investment in the leading Indian financial services group Shriram Capital Limited; </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />-          The acquisition of a 49% stake in the Malaysian short term insurer Pacific & Orient Insurancce Co. Berhad (POI); and </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />-          Sanlam has been granted approval from the relevant Kenyan authorities and the South African Reserve Bank to increase its shareholding in Pan Africa Insurance Holdings (PAIH) from 50% to 60% in the open market.</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Looking ahead, Werth says SEM will continue to explore further opportunities in Africa, India and South East Asia, in line with the Group’s strategy and to create value for shareholders.  </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />“We are actively working with our partners to identify appropriate opportunities. In 2013 we will focus on extracting more value from our existing partnerships in Africa. </span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />“We have finalised our Malaysian acquisition and continue to identify other opportunities in South East Asia, which we believe offers tremendous growth opportunities,” concludes Werth.</span>  <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
