UNION POSTALE EDITOR’S NOTE Many hands make light work IN BRIEF The regions have spoken and given their views on what elements they will focus on during the next world postal work cycle. As the article in this issue shows, the regions have similar preoccupations that will and, frankly, should shape the next world postal strategy. This is no small task and the mul- titude of voices will, no doubt, help to ensure that this new strategy is one that is fit for purpose and closely matches its constituents’ requirements. Way ahead This issue of the magazine sheds a light on the many developments occuring in the UPU’s corridors in recent times. The launch of the collective mark, PosTransfer, is one of the major events, deserv- ing the cover spotlight. In other news, we celebrate our membership of the United Nations’ family as it turns 70 and unveils its new Sustainable Development Goals. Just as our member countries are bracing themselves for the changes ahead in the run-up to Congress and beyond, so too is the UPU International Bureau. Happy holidays!

News: Kenya's technology rush gave hope that new ideas would help millions of Africans use their mobile phones to circumvent poor infrastructure but local start-ups are failing to draw major investors or create profits. Lack of talent, problems in attaining seed capital and ideas that cannot be sold to a mass market or easily monetized have so far held back hundreds of Kenyan start ups. With mobile phone use nearing 80 percent, cheap data and soaring smartphone uptake, Kenya provides one of sub-Saharan Africa's most appealing environments for tech entrepreneurs. Forced to play catch up on development issues, engineers hope Africa can jump to the front of the technology revolution. African economies continue to expand rapidly, Safaricom has launched super-fast 4G internet and 19 million Kenyans are expected to own smartphones by end of 2017. Times Leader: The National Newspaper Association, a leading advocate for rural people affected by ongoing post office closures in small towns and the consolidation of mail processing centers nationwide, wants Congress to pass a reform bill that would protect Saturday home delivery and improve service overall to customers in the country’s most remote areas. The funding resolution that Congress passed earlier this month does ensure Saturday deliveries until Sept.

The national postal operator in Denmark said the disruption to its communications systems also meant that customers were unable to contact customer service regarding their inability to track their packages. Despite the problems, the company insisted yesterday that it is now back to delivering letters and parcels on time. Post & Parcel: PostNL will be increasing its prices from the beginning of August, with the basic rate for a domestic letter rising 11% to 60c. The Dutch postal service said the rate increases are necessary to counter the impacts of the country’s 8-10% annual decline in mail volumes. Letters going to European destinations will see rates rise to 96c, while letters going to the rest of the world will be charged at EUR 1. Business rates will also increase from 1st August, the company said. The basic rate for franked mail will be EUR 0.52. Despite beginning a “rigorous” series of restructuring effort and cost-saving plans, PostNL said its universal postal service is loss- making as a result of the large volume declines, while it continues to meet its obligation to guarantee mail delivery within 24 hours and maintain networks of 2,000 post offices and 15,000 mailboxes.

Boehner told President Barack Obama last week that he will not allow a vote in the House, according to a White House official. [EdNote: In this environment, can postal reform have even a hair's breadth of a chance?] Financial: A new draft law on postal service that has established the Georgian Post monopoly is not meeting either EU regulations or general conditions of a competitive business environment, said Malkhaz Papelashvili, General Manager at Georgian Express, official representative of DHL Georgia. The company sees huge opportunity in expanding its business in complex logistic and domestic transportation during 2014. Georgia’s express industry showed only 3-4% growth during 2013. The United States Postal Service is planning to resume the rationalization of our network of mail processing facilities which began in 2012. To provide adequate time for planning and preparation, the Postal Service is providing this six-month advance notice of consolidations, for up to 82 facilities, which will begin early January 2015 and be completed by the fall mailing season. The Postal Service will provide detailed information about its network rationalization planning in the coming weeks.

  • The Private Sector Plays a Pivotal Role in Fighting
    The private sector plays a pivotal role in fi ghting corruption worldwide. Transparency International’s Global Corruption Report 2009 documents in unique detail the many corruption risks for businesses, ranging from small entrepreneurs in Sub-Saharan Africa to multinationals from Europe and North America. More than 75 experts examine the scale, scope and devastat- ing consequences of a wide range of corruption issues, including bribery and policy capture, corporate fraud, cartels, corruption in supply chains and transnational transactions, emerging challenges for carbon trading markets, sovereign wealth funds and growing economic centres, such as Brazil, China and India. The Global Corruption Report 2009 also discusses the most promising tools to tackle corruption in business, identifi es pressing areas for reform and outlines how companies, governments, investors, consumers and other stakeholders can contribute to raising corporate integrity and meeting the challenges that corruption poses to sustainable economic growth and development. Transparency International (TI) is the global civil society organisation leading the fi ght against corruption. Through more than ninety chapters worldwide and an international secretariat in Berlin, Germany, TI raises awareness of the damaging effects of corruption and works with partners in government, business and civil society to develop and implement effective meas- ures to tackle it.
