Immigration and Education

Since time immemorial there has been this antagonistic view that there is the RICH and the POOR sitting at poles. But is it really true that we have this static group of people that never changes, that the rich will forever be rich. Africa and Africans in general have found themselves at the lower scale of power and wealth, and for this most Africans and indeed other poor people consider themselves victims of this social arrangement that favours the rich and victimises the poor. Today the host try to debunk the myth that there are victims and victmisers at the global level that cannot be reversersed. And points out that to a certain extent what matters most is the quality of life and not wealth, but those who want to ensure they are well looked after by the "system" there are simple steps they can take and these can lead to joining the millionaire club.

Tembo is finally published.The 3 other contributors in the book are Ms. Ruth Mugala in Zambia, Ms. Claire Miti in the United Kingdom, and Mr. James Mwape in the United States. His Excellency the First President of Zambia, Dr. Kenneth Kaunda, was gracious enough to give his blessings to the book by writing the foreword. What is the book about?

Many people migrated into the cities and professionals immigrated and scattered abroad in a growing Diaspora." Please, join us as we talk to Prof. Tembo about his new book.

"WHILE it has always been a good economic practice to buy used or second-hand motor vehicles, books and clothes in Zambia, the purchase and wearing of used undergarments raises many moral and health questions.Does donning salaula Victoria Secrets  underwear not say something about the place of our people in the world economy?What could be the health implications of sharing or wearing someone else’s underwear? In any case, for how will this dehumanising and humiliating trade in salaula underpants go on in Zambia?These are serious questions beseeching sober reflection, not only from our leaders but also citizens. Quick action is required and we cannot afford to fold our arms and pretend there are no issues surrounding the morality or immorality of having used lingerie on our markets...."

  The name "United Nations", coined by United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt was first used in theDeclaration by United Nations of 1 January 1942, during the Second World War, when representatives of 26 nations pledged their Governments to continue fighting together against the Axis Powers.   The forerunner of the United Nations was the League of Nations, an organization conceived in similar circumstances during the first World War, and established in 1919 under the Treaty of Versailles "to promote international cooperation and to achieve peace and security."     In 1945, representatives of 50 countries met in San Francisco at the United Nations Conference on International Organization to draw up the United Nations Charter. The United Nations officially came into existence on 24 October 1945, when the Charter had been ratified by China, France, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, the United States and by a majority of other signatories.
