  • Why Is the African Economic Community Important? Mr
    House Committee on Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights, and International Organizations Hearing on “Will there be an African Economic Community?” January 9, 2014 Amadou Sy, Senior Fellow, Africa Growth Initiative, the Brookings Institution Chairman Smith, Ranking Member Bass, and Members of the Subcommittee, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for convening this important hearing to discuss Africa’s progress towards establishing an economic community. I appreciate the invitation to share my views on behalf of the Africa Growth Initiative at the Brookings Institution. The Africa Growth Initiative at the Brookings Institution delivers high-quality research on issues of economic growth and development from an African perspective to better inform policy research. I have recently joined AGI from the International Monetary Fund’s where I led or participated in a number of missions to Africa over the past 15 years. Why is the African Economic Community Important? Mr. Chairman, before we start answering the main question, “Will there be an Africa Economic Community?” it is important to look at the reasons why a regionally integrated Africa is beneficial to African nations as well as the United States. In spite of its remarkable economic performance over the past decade, Africa needs to grow faster in order to transform its economy and create the resources needed to reduce poverty. Over the past 10 years, sub-Saharan Africa’s real GDP grew by 5.6 percent per year, a much faster rate than the world economy, which grew by 3.2 percent. At this rate of 5.6 percent, the region should double the size of its economy in about 13 years.

  • History of Badminton
    Facts and Records History of Badminton In 1873, the Duke of Beaufort held a lawn party at his country house in the village of Badminton, Gloucestershire. A game of Poona was played on that day and became popular among British society’s elite. The new party sport became known as “the Badminton game”. In 1877, the Bath Badminton Club was formed and developed the first official set of rules. The Badminton Association was formed at a meeting in Southsea on 13th September 1893. It was the first National Association in the world and framed the rules for the Association and for the game. The popularity of the sport increased rapidly with 300 clubs being introduced by the 1920’s. Rising to 9,000 shortly after World War Π. The International Badminton Federation (IBF) was formed in 1934 with nine founding members: England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Denmark, Holland, Canada, New Zealand and France and as a consequence the Badminton Association became the Badminton Association of England. From nine founding members, the IBF, now called the Badminton World Federation (BWF), has over 160 member countries. The future of Badminton looks bright. Badminton was officially granted Olympic status in the 1992 Barcelona Games. Indonesia was the dominant force in that first Olympic tournament, winning two golds, a silver and a bronze; the country’s first Olympic medals in its history. More than 1.1 billion people watched the 1992 Olympic Badminton competition on television. Eight years later, and more than a century after introducing Badminton to the world, Britain claimed their first medal in the Olympics when Simon Archer and Jo Goode achieved Mixed Doubles Bronze in Sydney.

  • Congo, Rep 2018 Human Rights Report
    REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO 2018 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Republic of the Congo (ROC) is a presidential republic in which the constitution, promulgated in 2015, vests most decision-making authority and political power in the president and prime minister. In 2015 the Republic of the Congo adopted a new constitution, that extended previous maximum presidential term limits to three terms of five years, and provided complete immunity to former presidents. In April 2016 the Constitutional Court proclaimed the incumbent, Denis Sassou N’Guesso, winner of the March 2016 presidential election despite complaints of electoral irregularities. The government held the most recent legislative and local elections in July 2017. While the country has a multiparty political system, members of the president’s Congolese Labor Party (PCT) and its allies retained almost 90 percent of legislative seats, and PCT members occupied almost all senior government positions. Civilian authorities generally maintained effective control over the security forces. During the year the country experienced significant positive changes regarding internal peace and security. In December 2017 the government and representatives of the Nsiloulou faction of the Ninja rebel militia group agreed to a ceasefire, thereby ending the conflict in the Pool region that had been ongoing since 2016. In June government and UN sources stated approximately 80-90 percent of the 161,000 persons displaced by the conflict had returned to their homes and villages. Human rights issues included reports of unlawful or arbitrary killings; forced disappearance; arbitrary detention by the government; harsh and life threatening prison conditions; political prisoners; infringement of citizens’ privacy rights; restrictions on freedoms of assembly and association; restrictions on the ability of citizens to change their government peacefully; corruption on the part of officials; violence against women, including rape, domestic violence, and child abuse; trafficking in persons; and child labor, including worst forms.

  • Vol. 17: Republic of the Congo Sub-Saharan Report
    Marubeni Research Institute 2016/09/02 Sub -Saharan Report Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the focal regions of Global Challenge 2015. These reports are by Mr. Kenshi Tsunemine, an expatriate employee working in Johannesburg with a view across the region. Vol. 17: Republic of the Congo December 15, 2015 I think most of you have heard something related to the acronym SAPE. This acronym is derived from the French expression, ”société des ambianceurs et des personnes élégantes”, or “the society of fashionable (ambience-makers) and elegant gentlemen” in English. In the Republic of the Congo it refers to the phenomenon of dressing in highly fashionable and luxury brand attire despite living in a country where the average income should not allow for the purchase of such high brand items, and has come to be known as the “Congo fashion style” (note 1). Picture 1: Making a film introducing SAPE photo Wikipedia So this time, it is the Republic of the Congo (Congo), a country that has gained attention for its fashionably dressed gentlemen (dandies) that I would like to introduce to you. Table 1: Congo Country Information The Republic of the Congo is located in the central part of the African continent with the Democratic Republic of the Congo on its southern and eastern borders, Cameroon in the north and Gabon bordering it in the west (note 2).To distinguish the Republic of the Congo from the neighboring Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of the Congo is often referred to as Congo-Brazzaville, while the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is called by its former name of “Zaire”.

  • Health Action in Crises
    RESOURCE MOBILIZATION FOR HEALTH ACTION IN CRISES CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC SAVING LIVES AND REDUCING SUFFERING HEALTH SITUATION Despite the increasing health crisis in Central African Republic (CAR), appeals for assistance have not been met and it remains an under- funded and “forgotten” emergency in one of the poorest country in the world. Health indicators have continued deteriorating rapidly in recent years as internal conflict has persisted causing widespread displacement and the destruction of the health infrastructure. An estimated 2.2 million people, over 60% of the population, have been affected by the conflict. The country is also host to over 50,000 refugees, mainly from neighbouring Sudan but also from Chad, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and another 19 African countries. Systems for disease surveillance and response and routine vaccination have broken down. Outbreaks of polio, meningitis and measles were reported in 2004/05. It is estimated that over one-third of the population is highly vulnerable to preventable diseases. In 2004, transmission of HIV, tuberculosis and sleeping sickness rose steeply. The situation is compounded by the lack of safe drinking water in rural areas, severe levels of childhood malnutrition and insufficient health services. The recent conflict has also seen an alarming increase in attacks of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) against women. It has resulted in widespread trauma and a heightened risk of HIV/AIDS and other STIs. The population of CAR is facing a silent but pervasive health crisis. The situation is particularly desperate for the poorest segments of the population, for the most part women and children.
