Sun, 24 Dec 2006 12:45:48 +0000http://whiteafrican.com/?p=262#comment-2567After getting through all of the above, it comes down to how to answer the question from Sadat Bwambale. In Australia http://www.aboriginalaustralia.com/ have set up a system for remote indigenous artists to advertsie their wares on line using digital photos, and the site takes care of advertising, selling and getting the money back to the producers – but even in outback Australia there are reliable phones, internet, a reputable banking sector (well, almost)…which seems to be the breakdown points in Africa. Still can’t get over the idea that the cell phone economy is a huge winner…but I only got onto this idea a couple of hours ago. A peaceful Christmas to all…and keep thinking…quickly.

Mon, 11 Dec 2006 18:19:19 +0000http://whiteafrican.com/?p=262#comment-2565[…] Those who I spoke to in Kenya this summer will remember me talking rather excitedly about the need and opportunity surrounding a mobile banking system that I called AfriPay. I didn’t really get into it in that post, but the opportunity goes beyond just providing a payment system, it also opens the door for an easy way to track and manage micro-loans. […]

Wed, 29 Nov 2006 17:28:17 +0000http://whiteafrican.com/?p=262#comment-2564Tangent – I am just starting to learn. Is there a reasonable way to hook into making loans as an individual through a small organization, and see who it is going to & what they are doing. How do I make these type of investments. Is there a clearing house?
