The World Bank is currently publishing a book on careers in Africa.
We have been looking extensively at your site and are very impressed with the quality of
information you share with your constituents.
Would you be interested in writing a piece to include in this book that would be
100-200 words regarding the cultural considerations when one is networking with
Africans?
Many thanks,

Hi Peter,
At times, I dont feel the African in me as much as I see it you.
I would now like to actively participate and see how to involve Kenya in the process.

Dear Mr. Peter,
Since I had a little chat with you on my first Visit to South Africa in 2003, while attending the first World Franchise Council, Meeting held in Africa, I did not have any doubt in my mind on your dreams of African Trade Development.
Its only non-business practicals who woud doubt your direction.
When the living legend MANDELA said that a united black and white in South Africa will bring repid advancement within the African Continent, this is one of those vivid results.
From grand Zero in 2003 when we met at Johannesburg, Convention Center in South Africa, to Africa Trade Center in 2007.
Mr. Peter, I am proud of you, Africans at home and else where around the world are proud of your person and your wife whom you always describe as your engine room and power house.
May God continue to sustain you and your your dreams for African Trade.
Long live Africa Trade Center.

Hi there Peter,
Thank You very much for your follow up
I wanted to know what i can do for the cause being a non-celebrity, your man on the street can become involved in the movement
I look forward to seeing my name on the website
I look forward to a time when we have one currency such as an 'Afro' combining ALL the prominent and stable countries of Africa to create a
sustainable and profitable financial stronghold in Africa
I guess something like this is bigger than you and I-but these are the kind of things I ponder
Do you work with Subsidiary companies that support the Development of Africa such as companies which are working towards business harmony between Pan
African countries?
Thank You once again
Kind Regards

Dear Peter,
I work as a Fund Developer at Greytown Children's Home. We are a registered NGO.
This is all new to me. I would like to know more about CSI and the role of children's homes in the CSI.
Could you please furnish me with information/contacts on this subject.
I would like to join the CSI initiative but would like to know what mutual benefits the corporate world is looking for in a sustainable medium/long term partnership with institutions like ours.
Thank you for a wonderful web site.
Greetings and God bless!

Dear Mr Peter,
I am very glad to receive your mail and willing to contribute my ideas whenever is necessary.
I am also in the process of establishing a youth foundation in Ghana that will collaborate with you to see how we can all enhance the development of our mother Africa.
I am very inspired by your selfless effort and hoping my contribution will never be futile.
I shall have the pleasure of inviting you to Ghana to formally inaugurate our foundation when we are through with the registration process (though getting funds is not easy for now).
I extend my regards to you and prayers for the success of your immeasurable efforts.
Ever yours,
Abdulai Nashiru.
