Nigeria
The program “My National Union of Electricity Employees” focuses on economic development in Nigeria. See www.mynuee.com.
Unions faced with substantial retrenchments, shifted their focus from the traditional “strike” approach to focusing on the development of new businesses and job opportunities, as options for new employment.
The USA market:-
The main program “The Firefly Innovations” See www.thefireflyinnovations.com is a division we have launched with the objective to develop future directed economic growth programs and include forestry as economic driver focusing initially on the USA market.
It is estimated that these developments could contribute to budget savings at Federal and State levels in excess of between $0.7 and $1,3 billion USA dollars over a five year period.
The programs also include a small development in the art sectors to initiate art collaboration between SA and the USA.
