Hero’s Welcome for Eritrean President 02.10.2011 5,000+ NYC by Thomas C. Mountain* It is not very often that a long serving African President is given a hero's welcome by his people in New York City but on Sunday, September 25 over 5,000 Eritreans from all over the eastern USA and Canada converged on Manhattan to do just that for Eritrean President Issias Aferworki. Don't take my word for it go to eastafro.com and see for yourself. The Eritrean President, who is under travel and financial sanctions imposed by the UN inSecurity Council for the now Wikileaks discredited charge of supporting terrorism in Somalia (Wikileaks Exposes UN Eritrean Sanctions Lies), spent several hours addressing and than answering questions from thousands of Eritreans who had crammed into the overcapacity theater on a first come basis. The event was billed as a seminar and was really a town hall meeting with most anyone in the audience who wanted to be given a chance to ask questions. Issias Aferworki is supposed to be a dictator, a tyrant, a leader "who kills his own people" according to just about every western media and human rights outfit there is, yet there they were, over 5,000 very proud and happy Eritreans giving him a hero's welcome, standing ovations inside and wildly cheering throngs outside greeting his arrival and especially when he joined the crowd outside before his departure. And all the while a couple dozen rather forlorn looking anti-Eritrean demonstrators held banners across the street. The utter bankruptcy of the so-called Eritrean "opposition" was there for all to see, for with such a prime opportunity to show their support all they could muster was a couple dozen people? From the US State Department to Amnesty International, it seems those who have the ear of the media in the western banktatorships do not want to have to explain the discrepancy of what they claim is going on in Eritrea today versus what the Eritrean diaspora, some 80,000 who visit home every year and see first hand for themselves are so determined to express for the rest of the world to hear. Last year it was over 10,000 Eritreans gathered in Washington DC to protest the UN sanctions against Eritrea, this time 5,000+ in NYC not far from the UN where the world's leaders were gathered for the UN General Assembly meeting. While Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi is dogged by protests almost everywhere he goes, with thousands protesting his appearance at the G-20 Meeting of world leaders held in Toronto, Canada last year, Eritreans are traveling long distances, some riding buses for up to 30 hours to be a part of the hero's welcome for Eritrea's President. And this with only a little over a week's notice to get organized. The last time Issias Aferworki was in the USA was over a decade ago and so many Eritreans showed up the Interstate Freeway off ramps where shut down by the Highway Patrol as a result of the traffic jam caused by so many thousands converging on the venue. The question begging to be answered is "who knows best" about life in Eritrea, those with their generous salary and benefit packages in their Human Rights Watch offices in NYC or the thousands of Eritreans gathered to greet their President? And if it is true that so many Eritreans allegedly hate President Issias Aferworki, where were they when they had a chance to show this? MIA? Or just plain nonexistent? Again, don't take my word for it, see for yourself at eastafro.com. What you will see there is what I have seen time and again for the past five years I have lived here in Eritrea. Whenever Issias Aferworki appears in public, all too rare due to the threat of foreign based assassination teams, he is greeted by enthusiastic crowds, especially from amongst the youth. The question is who are you going to believe? A "human rights" specialist who might never have been to Eritrea or the over 5,000 Eritreans giving their President a hero's welcome in NYC? *Thomas C. Mountain is the only independent western journalist in the Horn of Africa, living and reporting from Eritrea since 2006.

Kenya: Chinese Firm Offers to Finance Lamu Port Plan Mark Agutu 1 October 2011 A Chinese company has expressed interest in financing the construction of Lamu Port and its related infrastructure The firm, JS Neoplant Company Limited of Shanghai, has said it is "ready, able and willing" to undertake the massive project whose cost had been estimated at US $16 billion (Sh1.4 trillion). The acknowledgement is contained in a confidential letter dated September 21, 2011, a copy of which was made available to the Sunday Nation. The letter, signed by JS Neoplant Company Ltd managing director Charles Kim, is addressed to both the governments of Kenya and South Sudan that are joint partners in the venture. In particular, JS Neoplant expresses interest in undertaking construction of the port, an airport, a railway line, a road network, an oil refinery and a pipeline. "We JS Neoplant Co. Ltd... hereby declare that we have an excellent financing programme and engineering capability to undertake the projects on a EPC/BOT on the back of sovereign guarantee." The firm states that it is ready to apply for a suitable project financing programme in respect of the Lamu Port project and its other indicated appendages. According to the communication, the six components of the project include a sea port straddling some 750 acres of land with 10 container terminal berths and three bulk cargo terminal berths, an oil jetty and an international airport with a 2,000 person-per-day capacity on 10 daily flights. Other components are a three-limbed 1.4m gauge railway line for high speed trains: the limbs are Lamu-Isiolo-South Sudan (1,400km); Nairobi-Isiolo-Moyale-Addis Ababa (1,596km) and Lamu-Mombasa (350km). The pipeline too had three phases: South Sudan border-Lamu-Isiolo (1500km); Nairobi-Isiolo-Moyale-Addis Ababa (1400km) and a branch to link Lamu to the existing Mombasa/Kampala pipeline. The project also includes three stretches of highway: Lamu-Isiolo-South Sudan border (1400km); Nairobi-Addis Ababa (1596km) and Lamu-Mombasa (320km). A fibre optic cable running along the highway completes his gargantuan regional project. Last month, President Kibaki gave an indication of the impending commencement of the construction work with a promise to undertake a ground-breaking ceremony "soon". "The feasibility study for Lamu Port and supporting infrastructure is now complete... I look forward to soon undertaking the ground-breaking ceremony for the project," point he said in Mombasa a week ago when he visited the town to open this year's Agricultural Society of Kenya show. President Kibaki mandated Kenyan ambassadors to aggressively market the proposed second transport corridor that would serve Ethiopia and South Sudan. Several countries including Canada, Germany, China, Japan and United Arab Emirates have made inquiries since the government declared its intention to construct the corridor about three years ago. The corridor has immense political and economic potential and will open up large sections of the country's North Eastern and Eastern provinces that have for years enjoyed scant attention in terms of business opportunities. "I urge you to focus some energy on promoting investment in this project in your respective areas of accreditation, as it is expected to play a major role in catalysing Kenya progress towards the achievement of the economic goals," Mr Kibaki told the ambassadors. Japan Port Consultants has completed a one-year feasibility study on the development of the port and Lamu-South Sudan-Ethiopia Transport corridor. With the anticipated entry of South Sudan and even Sudan into the East African Community, estimates put unrestricted demand of cargo rising by more than 32 million tons per annum - far above what Mombasa Port alone can handle. South Sudan has always relied on Port Sudan in Sudan to the north. The Ethiopian market, the other target, is currently served by Djibouti port. Lack of good roads connecting Kenya and Ethiopia, with a population of 80 million, has hampered the trade between the two nations. Ethiopia's dependence on imported goods has meant that Djibouti port handles 98 per cent of Ethiopian traffic which is about 85 per cent of all the traffic in through the port.
