Reading this latest article by Kian-Ming Ong. Fully agree with his suggestions to study the success and shortcomings of past and ongoing government-sponsored Bumiputera programmes. Perhaps one idea is to incorporate the Bumiputra agenda into the strategies of Government-Linked Companies (GLCs) or State-Linked Entities, particularly when it comes to renting or purchasing land, could potentially bring several benefits, especially in the context of Malay Reserve Land. By prioritizing these lands, GLCs and State Entities can contribute to the development and enhancement of Bumiputra communities. Engaging with Malay Reserve Land not only aligns with broader national socio-economic goals by uplifting and integrating these lands into the mainstream economy but also potentially increases the land's value through development and demand. This approach could create a positive cycle of growth, where increased land value further encourages investment and development, benefiting both the Bumiputra communities and the entities involved. However, it is crucial that the strategy is implemented with careful planning and consideration of the long-term impact on the Bumiputera community and the wider economy to ensure sustainable and equitable development.

"कीर्तिश्च नारायणे" - The paradox of Nepal is while #innovation is entirely absent as evident by the LESS THAN 100 Patents in the entire country - our #Dasai #Tika #mantra wishes us to "कीर्तिश्च नारायणे" - which means to #CREATE & #INNOVATE just like Lord Narayan - the creator of our #Universe. Under the able #leadership of Nepal's most dynamic young & female entrepreneur Ashma Poudel, Nepal's upcoming homegrown natural FMCG company; Asali Himali has registered 4 patents of our innovations at the #government Patent's office. I'm throwing a challenge to all young Nepalis via this post - especially to engineers & digital creators - go to the Nepal #patents office & register your innovation there. Please contact Ashma Poudel to help you figure out how to register your patent. The governments patent registration fee for the #FIRST #TEN engineering patents will be #sponsored by Nepal's only #rocketlaunch company Voyager Mayeen; the above fee for the first 10 digital patents will be sponsored by Nepal's only Red Herring ranked digital company Nimbuzz & the above fee for the first 5 #foodtech / #agritech / #naturetech / #healthtech patents will be sponsored by Nepal's only #natural #fmcg company Asali Himali. Please contact Ashma Poudel for all the above. Let's start an #innovation #revolution! Next year when your elders put #Dasai #Tika & you hear the #mantra "कीर्तिश्च नारायणे" - you can tell them you did it. 🇳🇵

I am happy to announce that uMama (Xhosa for "mother") was selected for the African Impact Initiative pre-incubation phase of Health Entrepreneurship Cohort 2024! I have already dived into the rich content and learned so much in one day. I have learned about: The Prosperity Paradox Different types of innovation Market-Creating innovation Consumption vs non-consumption economies Customer segments Value Creation and Utility I would like to share the idea I learned about... "The value of innovation is the ability to democratize access!" If there is anything I would like to take away from this program, it would be the rich knowledge and access to the amazing innovators passionate about creating impact in Africa. 🌍 "The highest use of capital is not to make more money, but to make money do more for the betterment of life." ~ Henry Ford Good luck to all the founders! Let's remember to embrace the journey 🤗 #AfricaImpactInitiative #uMama

As Municipalika 2023 comes to an end, engaging with Australian delegation presented an excellent opportunity for Indian stakeholders not only to learn about Australian expertise, but also explore mutually beneficial partnerships in #builtenvironment. This year #Australia participated as #innovation partner with 10 delegates as part of delegation showcasing their capabilities, and engaging interactions with the prominent industry leaders. Australian businesses are now looking to export the unique offerings in 'Green' and 'Smart' building products to #India for #sustainable #urbandevelopment while helping to meet mutual #netzero emission targets. There is no better time for business between Australia and India. Our bilateral relationship is at a historical high point, evidenced by implementation of the Australia-India Economic Cooperation and Trade Agreement (#AIECTA) in December 2022. Cheers to the teams from Department for Trade and Investment Tim White Hemant Padale, Sonia Madramootoo, and Austrade South Asia Abdul Ekram, Kamran Khan, Amol Pandey and Rohini Chawla for collaborating and working collectively with commitment. Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) was acknowledged with the excellence award for bi-lateral initiatives in #urbaninfrastructure .
