Africa and Rwanda: From Crisis to Socioeconomic Development

Speaker: His Excellency Paul Kagame, President of the Republic of Rwanda

Perceptions and stereotype of Africa and Rwanda as perpetual basket cases and donor havens only sustained by aid, charity and pity no longer correspond to contemporary development of the past decade. Rwanda, under the leadership of one of Africas most able leaders, President Paul Kagame has undertaken considerable reforms leading to serious domestic and foreign investment.

President Kagame has single-handedly redefined the way African leaders should engage the best of the Western and Eastern world. He has appointed some the world's greatest minds in business and strategic investment to his council of economic advisers. President Kagame also put Rwanda on the global map by hosting UN secretary-general Ban-Ki Moon and US President George W. Bush.

Some of the recent indicators that prove President Kagames esteem with world leaders include his appointment by Bill Clinton to the board of the Clinton Global Initiative. Tony Blair also recently became the Rwandan Governments advisor for no fees; Bill Gates has personally been working closely with President Kagame in supporting the health sector in Rwanda. Paul Farmer, a Harvard professor and world's leading authority on public health-care in poor countries is advising President Kagame to develop one of the most innovative national health insurance systems in the world.

The strategic alliances between Rwanda/Kagame and some of the leading minds in business and politics around the globe are yielding good results. Improvements in health care, increased education opportunities, an investor-friendly environment and the transformation of the city of Kigali are some of the accomplishments that have started to take root in the country.
Rwanda is also aggressively seeking business opportunities with Asia. Dubai World has just signed a US$230m investment deal in Rwanda. The government of Singapore has been hired to advise Rwanda on how to build a modern city that serve as the region's service centre.

through blood sweat and tears the people respect hard work, hate corruption and expect their leaders to live up to that standard, demand of their leaders what they demand of themselves..look around Africa...what government as uncorruptable as Kagame's, not Kenya, Congo, Angola, South Africa, not Nigeria, Ethiopia..etc...I hope you read these bitter truths Mr. charbonelle and realise that Congo's problem is a lack of forceful leaders that loves their country more then they love their own lives

sa pamamagitan ng mga invasions nila Rwanda at Uganda noong 1996 at 1998, na nagresulta sa "* deadliest war mula kay Adolph Hitler at sa buong Europa" *. Sambahin ang pera at makikita mo na ang mga kompanya ng pagmimina at mga indibidwal ay nakabenipisyo mula sa DRC.

@24tagueule Just in case you misunderstand my words. I am saying that Africans are intelligent and considering so it is wise not to leave comments that express the contrary.

[WayneTatum]

@24tagueule Your opinion would taken more into consideration If you speak your mind fluently and without anger. Seriously, when your curse and speak as you have in your comment then you appear uncivilized. Your enemies and those who debate against you will only use it to reinforce their ignorant ideals. It is better to not speak at all If you cannot express yourself more intelligently as is expected from Africans. :)

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am here to charge Paul Kagame, his henchmen and paymasters in absentia.

I charge Kagame and Co with the assassinations of three African presidents.

I charge Kagame and Co with the rapes of three million Congolese women.

I charge Kagame and Co with the genocide of eight million Congolese people.

I charge Kagame and Co with the looting of Congo-Zaire’s mineral wealth.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Let's incarcerate them in perpetuity. If we acquit them, history will condemn us.
