This report, for the first time, coincides with the Government financial year. 2. From the financial point of view the year has again been one of considerable difficulty since, as a result of the Economy Commission Report, it was necessary to restrict the money available for recurrent expenditure to the same level as the previous year. Although an additional sum was available to cover normal increases in salaries, the general effect was that many economies had to in all be made grades of staff; some important vacancies could not be filled, and expansion was out of the question.

  • Lad Case Study
    LAD CASE STUDY Using Private Equity to Improve f Power Distribution in Uganda Chris Walker LAD ABOUT LAD The Leadership Academy for Development (LAD) trains government officials and business leaders from developing countries to help the private sector be a constructive force for economic growth and development. It teaches carefully selected participants how to be effective reform leaders, promoting sound public policies in complex and contentious settings. LAD is a project of the Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law, part of Stanford University’s Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies, and is conducted in partnership with the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. LAD gratefully acknowledges support from the Omidyar Network. Using Private Equity to Improve Power Distribution in Uganda Introduction It is summer 2004. Fred Kalisa, the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Energy sits in his Kampala home on the eve of one of the biggest moments in his political career. Kalisa had dedicated the past ten years of his life to building Uganda’s energy sector and two summers ago he had spearheaded the government’s wide-reaching Energy Reform drive. That effort split the vertically-integrated Ugandan Electricity Board (UEB) into three distinct state-owned companies to manage generation, transmission and distribution, respectively. The next few weeks would likely determine how much that hard work paid off, in what was to potentially be Africa’s first electricity distribution concession granting and privatization. Kalisa knows the stakes are high. After several private companies had pulled out of the negotiations to join the concession, he is left with only one potential partner, a newly formed parastatal organization from London and Johannesburg along with potential support from the World Bank.

  • Africa and Middle East Sugarcane Syrup Market
    +44 20 8123 2220 [email protected] Africa and Middle East Sugarcane Syrup Market by Territory (Malawi, Southern African Development Community (SADC) and Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), West Africa, and Middle East) - Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2017-2023 https://marketpublishers.com/r/A2DBFE46031EN.html Date: May 2018 Pages: 139 Price: US$ 10,000.00 (Single User License) ID: A2DBFE46031EN Abstracts The Africa and Middle East sugarcane syrup market size is expected to be reach $2,074 million by 2023. Sugarcane syrup is a thick concentrated syrup formed as an intermediate product of the sugar-making process and used as a natural sweetener. Sugarcane syrup is dark golden brown in color, with a slight molasses flavor. It is made by evaporating sugar cane juice for several hours, which converts sucrose contained in sugarcane to an equimolar mixture of glucose, sucrose, and fructose by the process of hydrolysis. As a result a thick concentrated syrup, which is sweeter than sugar is formed. This process is repeated several times, and each time a different type of sugarcane syrup such as liquid sucrose, invert sugar to refiners syrups, are produced depending upon the specific functional requirements of the final products. The syrup is majorly used as a natural sweetener by bakery, dairy, beverages, confectionaries, processed foods, and other industries. It is used to prepare variety of bakery and beverage products such as donuts, biscuits, chocolate, pancakes, cookies, and health drinks & sweetened beverages. They are used as natural preservatives to reduce water activity and also employed in medicines for improving their taste.
