Lloyd M’bwana

BEIJING-(MaraviPost)-Malawi government and China on Tuesday, September 4, 2024 signed a MK50 billion financing agreement for the construction of the Judicial Complex in Lilongwe.

Minister of Finance and Economic Planning Simplex Chithyola-Banda signed the agreement on behalf of the Malawi government and described the agreement as a fitting gift from the Chinese government to the people of Malawi.

The minister said the grant financing which is worth Chinese RMB 200 million translating to over US$ 30 million (about K50 billion) will aid the transformation of Malawi.

In an interview, Chithyola-Banda said that Chinese President Xi JinPing informed President Dr Lazarus Chakwera about the grant financing of the Judicial Complex during their bilateral meeting at the Great Hall of the People held on Tuesday morning.

“I am happy that I have signed this agreement on behalf of the Malawi government that will see our judicially operate from modern buildings that will house quite many offices including courtrooms which is a positive development.”

“The onus to start work on the Judicial Complex that will be constructed in Lilongwe opposite the Parliament Building is now on my ministry which will work to fastback its operationalization with the stakeholders in China to make sure disbursements are done so that the work can start soon,” said Chithyola Banda.

The Finance Minister also said aside from changing the face of Lilongwe, the project will contribute to the socio-economic development of the country as it will see several Malawians getting employed on the project and others supplying goods and services as well.

Chithyola-Banda said the commitment of the Chinese government to fund the project is a result of focused leadership that has prioritized building good relations with other countries as already seen by the designation of Malawi as a strategic partner by the Chinese Government.

Signing on behalf of the Chinese government was Long Zhou who is the Chinese Ambassador to Malawi who said his government would see to it that the project runs its full course and that the relations between the two countries grow from strength to strength.

The signing agreement took place on the sidelines of the 2024 Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) Summit which is being attended by President Dr Lazarus Chakwera.

The summit will among others focus on building relations and cooperation in supporting Africas industrialization, energy and trade as a priority, talent development, accelerating agricultural modernization, agenda 2063 of the African Union, modernization and mutual learning among civilizations, political, peace, and security cooperation as well as poverty reduction.

FOCAC was instituted in 2000 to foster relations between China and the 53 African nations and the African Union (AU) and is held every six years while the ministers conference is held every three years.

Inspiring digital innovation ideas into solutions

MaraviPost

LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-August 12 every year is International Youth Day. This year the day was commemorated under the theme ‘From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development’.

To a young Lilongwe-based innovator, Eliot Kalenga, the theme is a reminder of how he was able to transform his idea to a practical digital solution benefiting organisations, schools, and also creating job opportunities for other youths in the country.

The 34-year-old bachelor of Computer Science graduate from the University of Malawi (formerly Chancellor College), Kalenga capitalized on the challenges he encountered while working as a teacher in his early career days to develop a solution called Fees Collection Management System (FECOMAS).

“Working as a teacher, I observed that there are various problems that are incurred when it comes to issues of fees collection,” said Kalenga.

Currently the solution is being used by various schools and organisations, thanks to the support and exposure FECOMAS got from National Bank of Malawi (NBM) plc through their Innovation Jam initiative run in partnership with ICT Association of Malawi (ICTAM).

When Kalenga’s idea was pitched at the Innovation Jam, they emerged winners in the Open-Source category and took home K1 million as prize money.

The money was used as a starter-pack that enabled expansion of the idea further. It boosted the operations of FECOMAS from being just a project to a tech-solution company.

“At that time, we were not sure if it really would solve problems since the application had not yet been used, but after winning the competition it gave us the energy to go for it fully.”

“Currently, it is being run as FECOMAS Tech Solutions Company with two of my colleagues. We have also recruited three more employees across Malawi thereby contributing to the creation of job opportunities.”

“FECOMAS is just no longer about the fees collection system but it is a school information management system which includes all aspects that are involved in running a school by digitalizing the whole process,” explains Kalenga. 

The solution has brought about efficiency in the school administration as reports are generated there and then, thereby saving 90 percent of the time spent.

It also has the ability to send messages to parents via WhatsApp and E-mail which is simplifying the communication process between the school management and parents. 

Borrowing and returning of books at the library and stock management has also been simplified by the system.

He indicates that so far, FECOMAS is working with Sanwecka Blantyre, Lilongwe and Mzuzu offices, Logos Academy and Springfield Academy, and has proven to be a success.

“We have signed contracts with many other schools, we believe that more institutions will adopt this solution this coming school session. We are aiming for 200 schools to adopt this solution by 2027,” Kalenga adds.

He thanks NBM plc for the Innovation Jam saying has provided a platform for young innovators to be able to sell their ideas and excel through the support given.

“Companies doubt local solutions in most cases but NBM plc has proven to be one of the few that is working hand-in-hand with ICTAM to make people believe that local solutions should also be considered in the development of the country,” Kalenga appreciates. 

He concludes by encouraging young innovators not to allow their dreams to die before bringing them into reality.

“Believe in yourself, with passion and determination everything is possible.”

“It would be of great importance if this solution is adopted as everything is going digital. Looking at vision 2063 there is a need to leave the old ways of keeping files,” he offers. 

Malawi vision 2063 aims at achieving a skills revolution that is underpinned by science technology and innovation which FECOMAS also aims at achieving by the use of such solutions driven by Malawians.

Emmie Kantokoma, one of the partners at FECOMAS explains that apart from being an IT Technician, she is also a parent who has experienced problems with school fees collection and thought this would be a good way in eliminating problems that arise due to loss of receipts and tracing fees payments at the Bank which this innovation is providing.

Sanwecka Tech companion Central Region Manager, Dorcas Kwisongole testifies to how efficient FECOMAS is by solving communication problems between the school’s Branches and head office in Blantyre.

“Every detail that is uploaded in this application concerning our training courses, the students enrolled, fees collected and balances, courses and every other information that is needed can be accessed at the Head office without problems.”

“This application even allows printing of receipts and reports, meaning that it is saving time as it is done instantly. This is a very good, easy application to use and convenient as it can also be accessed anywhere,” says Kwisongole.

She too commends NBM plc for giving such innovations a boost.

“The Bank’s decision to support local solutions made by the youth really is a plus. There is a need for continued support of other youths that come up with different innovative ideas like these as they are really a good way of moving forward as a country,” she explains. 

ICTAM president Clarence Gama also hails NBM plc for the support that it is giving through the Innovation Jam which he says has produced several innovations like FECOMAS. 

“Through these competitions several winners have transformed their innovations into thriving tech businesses not only FECOMAS but several others such as; iMosys, Lync Systems and MlimiPay just to mention a few.”

“The Innovation Jam hold substantial significance for both the youth and Malawi at large as it is empowering the youth by demonstrating their capabilities to key stakeholders and encouraging local innovation, thereby building confidence in local talents and fostering collaborations.” 

“It is also inspiring the youth to push their ideas further through the startups that NBM plc provides. It is working as a springboard to develop and scale ideas into successful enterprises which in turn fosters economic growth, addressing local challenges and building a knowledge-based economy which is in alignment with the countries agenda to be an inclusively wealthy and self-reliant industrialized upper-middle-income country by the year 2063,” explains Gama.

NBM plc Marketing and Corporate Affairs Manager Akossa Hiwa says the Bank is excited to see that its support through the Innovation Jam is able to bring notable outcomes to the youth.

“The Bank recognises the need to empower the youth through the various innovations that are bringing about growth economically not only to them but the country as a whole,” she says.

Meanwhile, in November last year, NBM plc set aside K345 million for innovation incubator hubs as a way of promoting innovation ideas into real solutions.

Sasai Money Transfer expands free remittances offer to additional African markets in partnership with Airtel Money

Ufulu

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, September 2, 2024/ — SASAI MONEY TRANSFER (www.MoneyTransfer.Sasai.Global), a business of Cassava Technologies (https://apo-opa.co/4dKI5Hn) and one of the fastest growing international money transfer operators, has partnered with Airtel Money to expand its revolutionary offer of free remittances to more African markets. The Zero Fees initiative, which was first launched in May 2024 by Sasai Money Transfer in partnership with Econet in Zimbabwe, is now being expanded with Airtel Money starting with Uganda, before being extended to other high-traffic remittance Airtel markets such as Ghana, Malawi, Nigeria, Kenya and Zambia.  

This innovative offering eliminates remittance sending fees for users of the Sasai Money Transfer service in the United Kingdom and South Africa sending money to family and friends in Uganda. The partnership with Airtel Money Uganda ensures that the recipient also enjoys similar benefits by cashing out their funds for free from their Airtel Money wallet. Overall, this is an end-to-end customer proposition offering unique benefits of improved access and affordability to both the sender and receiver.  

The current reality in the African context is that informal remittances are still prevalent, by and large exceeding the volume of formal remittances flowing through official channels. This high level of informality presents a challenge for African migrants many of whom end up losing their hard-earned money to unscrupulous intermediaries. In line with the vision of a digitally connected future that leaves no African behind, Sasai is leading the charge of digitizing and formalizing remittances, and making the services more accessible and affordable for all Africans. The goal is to close the gap between formal and informal money transfers, and making sure that no one is excluded from these essential services. 

The Managing Director of Airtel Mobile Commerce Uganda Limited, Mr. Japhet Aritho said, “We have partnered with Sasai Money Transfer on their innovative initiative that aligns with our own agenda of ensuring financial inclusivity for all Ugandans. This offer brings even more value to our customers, coinciding with our big consumer promotion, Vroomula Amajja, which offers customers a chance to win daily cash prizes, weekly Boda-Boda prizes and a Toyota Rav4 Hybrid by simply receiving remittances into their Airtel Money wallet.” 

Sasai Money Transfer’s forerunning partnership on zero fees with EcoCash, Zimbabwe’s largest mobile money operator, has proven to be a resounding success. The zero fees offer has become very popular with senders in the UK and SA offering relief from the often-exorbitant remittances fees seen in the market. Resultantly, the initiative has been described by many as an “indispensable lifeline” for families back home. 

Sasai Fintech (https://apo-opa.co/4e6oW2f) CEO, Mr. Darlington Mandivenga said, “The partnership with Airtel Money Uganda offers an important avenue into one of Africa’s largest remittance markets. As Sasai, this is where we want to be, ensuring we reach as many people as possible and ultimately leave no African behind. We are in a competitively unique position where we have been able to utilize our source market assets, operational efficiencies and group synergies, while collaborating with like-minded partners such as Airtel Money to deliver innovative offerings.” 

The Zero Fees initiative by Sasai marks another first in the remittances industry, where a Money Transfer Operator has been able to effectively collaborate with Mobile Money Operators to focus on a single goal: making money transfer services more affordable. In an industry where fees can be as high as 13%, the zero fees initiative holds enormous long-term potential to contribute to the formalization of international money transfers, the bulk of which still flow through unsafe and unreliable informal channels.

NCIC up with Construction Cost Indices for contractors

Dorica Mtenje

LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-National Construction Industry Council (NCIC) has established Construction Cost Indices (CCI) to guide constructors, construction companies, and individuals.

NCIC, Chief Executive Officer, Gerald Nkhonje told the news conference on Friday, August 30, in the capital Lilongwe that the construction industry is facing significant cost pressures which are impacting project timelines budgets and the quality of construction products.

Nkhonje said the indices are intended to provide a frame reference for the cost of construction inputs for parties involved in the management of infrastructure projects.

“Adjustments of cost have resulted in project delays as parties negotiate prices without clear reference cost and the construction indices cost will curb the trend,” said Nkhonje.

He further said the indices have been produced to assist the construction industry with price adjustment in the event of changes in prices for various material inputs that arise due to realignment or devaluation of the currency.

NCIC was established by an act of Parliament in 1996 with the mandate to develop, promote, and Regulate the construction industry to transform the sustainable and quality-driven construction industry.
