The energy stored from shopper footfall will contribute towards benefiting underprivileged communities in Africa

The initiative is an attempt at shifting the mindsets of normal people to believing they can contribute towards the greater good because they have the power in their everyday routine to change people’s lives and circumstances.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">‘What If I Can’ is all about the power of a human step. To display this strong message, Samsung collaborated with a UK-based company called Pavegen by laying a 68-tile walkway, situated in Sandton City Johannesburg. These tiles have the ability to collect kinetic motion and store this as energy. In addition, the walkway consists of an interactive data screen displaying a leaderboard of real-time footfall data and providing an immediate visual payback.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Sandton City’s main passage receives a monthly footfall rate of over two million footsteps. The energy stored from shopper footfall will contribute towards benefiting underprivileged communities in Africa, aiming to prove that even the smallest action of movement can make a huge difference to standards of living across the world. To extend participation beyond the Sandton City walkway, Samsung has created a simple step-counting mobile application allowing thousands of ordinary citizens across Africa to power solutions that benefit the less fortunate by simply walking. This application can be downloaded from the Google Play Store and is available on all android devices.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">The Campaign runs from March until the end of May. Participants across Africa will compete against each other to take the most steps and Samsung will match every contribution with a further 1000 steps. The country generating the most steps at the end of the first part of the campaign will earn a Samsung Solar Powered Internet School for a deserving community in that country.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Ntutule Tshenye, Director of Public Affairs and Corporate Citizenship at Samsung Electronics Africa, is the face of this brave new approach by the brand to take on very real problems such as connectivity to power the internet for under-served areas across Africa.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">“Education relevance and internet connectivity are imperatives to contribute towards future socio-economic growth in Africa,” says Ntutule. “We feel that a consumer facing campaign such as ‘What If I Can’ is both complementary and even gives credit to our innovate solutions such as Solar Powered Internet Schools and Solar Powered Digital Villages that work to empower people by delivering revolutionary solutions designed to overcome local challenges and take communities into the future,” he says.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">During the first 20 days of the campaign, the steps taken by participants will be accumulated to reach at least 400 million steps. This will contribute to the installation of a Samsung Solar Power Generator at the recently launched Revolutionary Britehouse Got-Game Digital Hub at the Sunrise Secondary School in Diepsloot.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">“Britehouse Got Game is a place of unlimited possibilities, dictated by communities’ own requirements”, says Britehouse CEO, Scott Gibson. “There is no limit to Britehouse GOT-GAME’s potential or what it can bring to the community. Because it is replicable, it reduces the cost, time, and effort needed to make an immediate difference.”</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">The ‘What If I Can’ campaign is less of a campaign and more of a brand endorsed movement. Samsung is on a mission to raise awareness and use innovation and technology to overcome region-specific problems. This time, we are not only empowering communities to become healthier, better educated and effectively connected, we are also empowering ordinary people to make a difference in the lives of the less fortunate around them.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Distributed by APO (African Press Organization) on behalf of Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> </div>

But the largest stele overall, is 33 meters long and lies where it fell, perhaps during the process of erection.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">2000 years ago Axum was among the four great powers of its time along with Persia, Rome and China. Currently, Ethiopia is making a comeback and is showing considerable promise to return to its days of glory and prosperity. Strong economic growth of around 10.5% over the past few years and extraordinary progress on infrastructural development are putting Ethiopia back on the map for all the right reasons. Ethiopia has now become among the top 10 countries to be visited.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Ethiopian will be launching a promotional flight to Dublin, Ireland using its ultra-modern Boeing 787 Dreamliner on March 20, 2015. This flight is in anticipation of Ethiopian direct service to Dublin and Los Angeles starting from June 19, 2015. The commencement of this new service will play a critical role in the expansion of trade, tourism and investment ties between Africa and Ireland. The flights will be the first and only direct air route linking Africa with Ireland.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Ethiopian offers four daily flights to the historical city of Axum.

But in spite of this, a dynamic is well underway with growth rates of 4% to 7%, or even 8% and over in some countries. It is important to assess the impact of this situation on African businesses, even if there is evidence that a milestone has been reached" declared Amir Ben Yahmed.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">"The period of prosperity is over for most of Africa. We realize that untoward winds are blowing on the world economy but to be quite frank, I am as optimistic today as I was yesterday and will be tomorrow" said Donald Kaberuka bringing the opening ceremony to a close. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">A FIRST DAY RICH IN DEBATE AND REFLECTION </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">This first day of the AFRICA CEO FORUM was marked by the intervention of high-profile speakers such as the American economist Jeremy Rifkin, Issad Rebrab, CEO of Cevital, or Carlos Lopes, Executive Secretary for the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA). Experts and attendees discussed growth paths for the African economy over the next five years, digital transition at the heart of business expansion, the profitability of African economic growth... </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Jeremy Rifkin noted that "Africa is about to enter into a promising new economic era.

This event, one of major rendezvous of the financial and corporate African scene, will welcome some 800 participants from 38 countries in Geneva on the 16th and 17th of March 2015 with discussions to be held in relation to the strategic priorities of the African private sector.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">“The Africa CEO Forum will help boost MCB’s brand visibility and its regional ambitions,” said Antony Withers, MCB’s Chief Executive. “We will be able to showcase our internal capabilities and product offerings to the top African business leaders and the most influential players in African and international finance. It will also allow MCB to engage in constructive dialogue on Africa’s growth dynamics and how the private sector can contribute towards advancing sustainable economic progress across the continent.”</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Ranked by The Banker as the largest bank in East Africa, MCB has gradually increased its involvement in Africa. The ‘Bank of Banks’ initiative aims at positioning MCB as a regional hub in handling trade finance, cards operations outsourcing and consulting services on behalf of MCB’s financial and banking counterparts. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">As such, MCB bundles its industry capabilities to service some 100 financial institutions covering around 30 African countries. The Bank is also active through classic short-term finance with more than 50 African banks and participates on the syndicated loan market through deals in African countries, as much as in the secondary market for the purchase and sale of risks, backed by its signing of 18 Master Risk Participation Agreements with top-tier African banks.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">MCB has made major strides in terms of structured finance across the commodity trade value chain, with activities revolving around the provision of bespoke self-liquidating finance facilities to regional oil traders and importers, as well as to some of the world’s top commodity traders. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">MCB has grown into a privileged partner for asset-based structured project finance in sectors spanning energy and power generation, infrastructure, telecommunications and hospitality across sub-Saharan Africa and the region. These endeavours are underpinned by the Group’s presence across 10 countries through its subsidiaries, associated company and representative offices. Reflective of its growing African aspirations, foreign-sourced income accounts for nearly half of the Group’s net profit, principally stemming from the region and the African continent.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">“We have not waited for Africa to be in the spotlight as ‘the new place to be’ to spread our wings across the continent,” said Raoul Gufflet, Head of MCB’s International division. “Today, our ambition to widen and deepen our footprint in sub-Saharan Africa and beyond can be explained by the generally appreciable macroeconomic performance and prospects posted by a number of African countries. We are focused on securing new business across the continent and engaging in organic growth by increasing cross-border financing and entering into regional ventures, strategic partnerships or alliances,” added Raoul Gufflet.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Being the country’s leading bank accounting for a quarter of the market capitalisation on the Stock Exchange of Mauritius, MCB will, in Geneva, be the flagship of the Mauritian business and financial hub. “Mauritius has made appreciable headway in refocusing on the African continent as part of its market and geographical diversification strategy in light of the new ‘Africa rising’ narrative,” Antony Withers noted. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">The country is strategically positioned between Africa and Asia and benefits from a wide network of bilateral agreements, with 19 Double Taxation Avoidance Treaties and 20 Investment Promotion and Protection Agreements currently in force with African countries. It is well integrated in major regional economic and trading blocs, such as the Southern African Development Community (SADC), the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) and the Indian Ocean Rim Association for Regional Cooperation (IOR-ARC).</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Distributed by APO (African Press Organization) on behalf of The Mauritius Commercial Bank Ltd (MCB).</span></div> </div>
