Global Vision: informing decision makers world-wide
February / March 2009
Dear Readers,
2009 is certainly not proving to be quiet. World financial markets
have slid further from their already substantial low points and experts
are gravitating towards a view that the global recession is more
likely to continue through 2009 rather than dissipate in mid-2009.
This issue of GlobalVision seeks to provide some moral support to
our readers and uplifting articles. The inauguration of President
Obama in the United States was an event of global importance, as
the new administration battles economic and security crises with implications
for us all.
Our Globalvision Africa supplement profiles a businessman and entrepreneur
George Forrest whose business empire in the Democratic
Republic of Congo not only exists to make profit but also provides
healthcare, homes, and education for large numbers of people across
the country.
Other stories cover the changing nature of Sierra Leone, the World
Business Forum conference in New York and a variety of lifestyle
places to explore.
