Into numerous war zones over the last two decades. Libya 2011 A
case in point.
We were told that the youth were in high spirits. And you know, we
asked the question why opposition actually doesn't conserve their
military force, but they said they said,
as you can hear the gunshot,
it is in these conditions that the gift of the givers offer lifeline
to those on the frontline. The first project that we did in our
life, the Bosnia war in 1992 1995
to us, it was a feat of African technology where we designed the
world's first and only containerized mobile hospital
built with African technology in 1993 and yet, 20 years later, the
continent still thinks it's backwards. It's about mindset.
Numerous projects in this country cover areas such as health,
education and feeding schemes, we're told they feed up to two to
3000 people a month in most cases. We used to find that poverty used
to exist mainly in the rural area, but now it's right next to us. You
know, in the cities and towns and because of unemployment, there's a
vast majority of people that suffer with poverty. So that is
really something that we have to look at. And we encourage other
companies, government departments or to partner us to fight poverty
assistance that is purely humanitarian and unconditional.
