SADC Secretariat will convene the 2nd Meeting of the Lobito Corridor Committee of Ministers of Angola, DRC, and Zambia to review progress and establish a corridor management institute for coordination of the Corridor
The Secretariat of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) will hold the 2nd meeting of the Lobito Corridor Committee of Ministers with representatives from the three (3) Corridor Member States: The Republic of Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and the Republic of Zambia. The Ministers will evaluate and analyse the efforts of the Technical Working Group that they assigned during their initial meeting on 16 December 2023 in Lobito, Angola, to setup and operationalise the Lobito Corridor Transit Transport Facilitation Agency Interim Secretariat. The Interim Secretariat will oversee the daily coordination of all development activities related to the Lobito Corridor.
On January 27, 2023, in Lobito, Angola, the Ministers responsible transport from three (3) Corridor Member States came together to sign the Lobito Corridor Transit Transport Facilitation Agency (LCTTFA) Agreement. This Agreement establishes a governing framework for Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Zambia, enabling them to work collaboratively on the development of harmonised corridor laws, policies, regulations, and systems, as well as infrastructure development, in a coordinated and coherent manner.
The LCTTFA Agreement defines the governance structure and establishes a framework for cooperation among the three SADC Member States, in alignment with the provisions of the SADC Treaty, Protocols, and development frameworks. Central to these SADC frameworks is the SADC Protocol on Transport, Communications and Meteorology, Regional Indicative Strategic Development Plan (RISDP) 2020-2030, the Regional Infrastructure Development Master Plan (RIDMP) 2013-2027, and the SADC Industrialisation Strategy and Roadmap (SISR) 2015-2063.
The operationalisation of the Interim Secretariat will provide a platform to expedite the current identified priority infrastructure projects along the Corridor. These include the construction of the Zambia-Lobito Railway Greenfield Project, which connects Zambia Railways from Chingola to the Benguela railway at Luacano, Angola; the rehabilitation of the Dilolo-Kolwezi Railway; the development of agricultural value chains for agro-processing; and the development of mining value chains to facilitate mineral beneficiation, including battery and electric vehicle manufacturing. All these efforts will enhance the participation of SMEs in the value chains, allowing for improved productivity, reduced unemployment, and leading to economic development that alleviates poverty for the three (3) Corridor Member States.
The meeting of the Ministers will be preceded by the Technical Experts Meeting and the Executive Committee meeting, which will include senior government officials, scheduled for January 20 and 21, 2025, respectively. The two (2) meetings will serve as preparations for the Ministers’ Meeting scheduled for 22 January 2025. Additionally, the meeting will include participation from International Cooperating Partners (ICPs) representing the European Union, United States of America, African Development Bank (AfDB), and Africa Finance Corporation (AFC), among others.
Umm, it absolutely does needs to be viewed in context. Otherwise that single frame appears to be a Nazi salute, happily seized upon by Trump haters.
However, Musk said, "Thank you! My heart goes out to you". He then gesticulates by slapping his hand on his heart before ripping his hand away towards the audience, he is sending his heart to:
People will always see what they want to see its human nature for the uneducated , you are correct the complete video needs to be viewed

If I gesticulate that I'm ripping my heart out and throwing it into crowd then for some reason my palm is facing upwards, in a sort of feeding the pigeons motion but that could just be me and I certainly don't thrust it out in a stiff, sharp upwards diagonal motion.
Do I think he's a Nazi? No in fact I always thought he was Jewish for some reason or at least a robot like Zuckerberg.
Do I think he made an unfortunate error in choice of gesture? Yes but I'm grateful for the meme content.

""""""""""""""Well TRUMP has backed off a bit on the CHINA matter"""""""
Pivoting away from a full-blown trade war, Trump plans to issue a broad memorandum that directs federal agencies to study existing trade policies and relationships with China, Canada and Mexico, the Wall Street Journal reported earlier Monday.
Wall Street breathed a collective sigh a relief after Donald Trump held off from imposing China-specific tariffs on his first day in office, pushing US equity futures higher. The dollar slumped.
“I do think, and maybe it’s just a hope, that Trump backs off from his most extreme rhetoric, especially on the deportation and tariff fronts,” said Marvin Loh, senior macro strategist at State Street Global Markets.
Monday’s whipsaw moves in equity futures and currencies, on a day when much of US trading was closed, nevertheless provided a foretaste of the uncertainty and volatility to come, according to Michael Green, chief strategist at Simplify Asset Management.
“The challenge becomes are you protecting against the risk of tariffs, or the risk that expected tariffs are not going to be put on?” Green said in an interview with Bloomberg TV. “It becomes a really challenging environment, one that likely translates to higher implied volatility.”

Economists say there could be unintended consequences, including higher prices, supply chain disruptions, and possibly opening door to improving Beijing’s ties to American allies.

President-elect Donald Trump’s longstanding plans to hit China with stiff tariffs would likely deal a blow to China’s already faltering economy, but it could also trigger some unintended negative consequences for the U.S. economy and foreign relations, economists say.

I think he is a Troll, knew exactly what he was doing and did it for the lols/inside joke "I am so powerful I'll get away with this".... I used to like or at least agreed with his ideas, free speech, end the woke mind virus etc.... then he started banning people for insulting him on X and his ego got hurt when everyone called him out for cheating in video games after claiming he was a "world class gamer". I now think he is a typical billionaire nothing utopic about him, thats just his sales pitch, just as selfish as the rest of us.
Musk is no different from Bezos or Zuckergerg or a whole bunch of other immensely wealthy and influential corporate czars. They are just part of the unelected corporatocracy that runs America.
Personally, I believe we have a lot to fear from them.

China's AVZ and CATH Sign Agreement to Receive $20 Million in Arbitration Funds Against DRC

On January 8, 2025, AVZ issued an announcement declaring the conclusion of an agreement with Chinese CATH, the main information of which is as follows:
CATH will provide AVZ with $20 million in funding, of which $10 million will be drawn before the end of January 2025.
These fees will allow AVZ to continue to commence international arbitrations. According to publicly available information, the arbitration initiated by AVZ against the DRC at ICSID in Washington had already been suspended due to AVZ's non-payment of costs; the arbitration initiated against Cominiere at the ICC in Paris had also been suspended due to the non-payment by AVZ.
But all that is different today, because AVZ received financial support from CATH Chies and the international arbitration fees were paid immediately on January 9.
CATH will pay $259.25 million to AVZ for a 30.5% interest in the Manono project;
This is even more surprising: the CAMI website shows that the ownership of the Manono Project belongs to Cominiere, so how could AVZ sell a 30.5% stake in the "Manono Project"?
According to AVZ's announcement, CATH will indirectly acquire AVZ's 30.5% stake in Dathcom by acquiring the shares of Green Lithium, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AVZ, which was sued by Cominiere in 2022 for creating a fake RCCM and unilaterally stating that it owned 75% of Dathcom.
AVZ's repeated references to the "right of first refusal" have been repeatedly violated by AVZ itself, and it is not surprising that such a company is being delisted from the ASX.
More importantly, when AVZ sold China's CATH, it acquired 30.5% of the shares for $259.25 million, or $8.5 million per share. However, AVZ had only $15 million, or $1 million per share, when it offered to buy 15% of the shares from Cominiere.
It is clear that AVZ will fight to the end against the DRC.
Zijin Mining in acquisition mode ......they are probably in the know, that they will loose Manano soon

Mate, much has been written about Henry Ford's contribution to the Soviet Union's economy in the 1920s and 1930s. However, what is not so well known is the story of the thousands of US workers in the depression years lured by propaganda to the Soviet Union on the promise of jobs and a just society.
Very few made it back to the US. Most died as penniless factory slaves or were shipped to the gulags...never to be seen or heard from again.

"As with most famous people, Henry Ford was complex and had traits and took actions that were laudatory as well as troublesome. The most controversial and least admirable aspect of Ford’s career was his descent into anti-Semitism. Convinced that “bankers” and “the Jews” were responsible for a whole range of things he didn’t like, from the world war to short skirts to jazz music, Ford used his newspaper, the Dearborn Independent, to carry on an active anti-Semitic campaign. Between 1920 and 1922 a series of articles denounced all things Jewish. While officially apologizing for the articles in 1927, Ford’s anti-Jewish sentiments ran deep. Seen within the context of the times, they demonstrate the sharp realities and tensions that emerge in societies undergoing profound cultural, economic and political change. "
