Permanent Residency in Guinea Bissau

With the help of Mr. Lamba, a friend of Madame Balde, I arrived in the great country of Guinea Bissau. It is a beautiful place and driving through the border of Senegal, I could already see the difference. Beautiful greens of palm trees and forest and grass. Even more, when I got to Bissau, I saw sidewalks and large roads. The county is dearly gorgeous, and the people are serene. With an estimated population of 1,874,303, it borders Senegal to the north and Guinea to the southeast. But, more so, it is kindness and courtesy of the people that stay Memorable to me. On the first day of arrival, Mr. Lamba made happen to receive a permanent resident card. (Mr. Doka offering me the card on the photo)

A GREAT “THANK YOU” TO MR. LAMBA
(Friend of Madame Balde)

When I came to Guinea Bissau, I didn’t know anyone and anybody. The country was introduced to me by Madame Balde, who then contacted her Friend Mr. Lamba to care for me. Then, while in the Gambia, Mr. Lamba had contacted the Embassy, and I met the Ambassador and Mrs. Odilia. Mr. Lamba sent his driver to pick me up in my hotel and drive some 9 hours to Guinea Bissau. In Bissau, in my first week of stay, Mr. Lamba paid for everything, including food, accommodation, and transportation, and made his stall available to me 24/7. Can you imagine, he even provided for my phone card internet communication. Honestly, I have never received such hospitality before. Mr. Lamba now ranks as a special brother to me, and I will never forget his unconditional gestures. I know he is doing this for the development and future of the nation.

Her Excellency Hadja Satu Camara Pinto

2nd Vice President of the National Assemby of Guinea Bissau.

On that days meeting with him and his chairming wife Mizuki, he brought to our encounter the renown TOKUSHUKAI Hospital Group represented here by his friend Advisor Representative for Africa, M.D. PhD Dr. Milanga Mwanatambe of Guinea. I was able to give a short presentation on the Marien Foundation and the message went through enough for all of us to be planning good strategies to supporting further the relations betweeen Japan and Guinea Conakry. This was really a revvered opportunity to bring alonside our network the great hospital group of Japan. Very timely to our situation with our upcoming trip to Guinea, Dr. Milanga connected us to his circle of friends at the Shonan General Hospital for the unavoidable PCR test.

Discovery: Kobe Institute of Computing to Guinea & The Gambia

Kobe Institute of Computing (KIC), is located in the center of the beautiful city of Kobe. KIC introduces a program to produce ‘work-ready’ professional IT personnel who, regardless of their previous field of education or previous work experience, will be prepared for professional roles in the IT industry. The program curriculum is progressively structured in a way that proceeds from foundations to application & practice. Read more here

The school was introduced to me through Mr. Chikara Matsunaga and Nobuko, presently ready to accompany me to Africa several days later. In Preparation to this trip, the discovery of KIC is surely a great advent. The founder Mr. Kenji Fukuoka is certainly an amazing revelation where it is rare to find someone who grab the understanding of the African continent as much as one could, when distanced by such cultural differences but able to depict the bright future of the Motherland through the purpose of his unique corporate vision of technological developments. I was very moved by the welcoming of his team there and by the English presentation made by Dr. Nick Barua the COO of the University’s related company called “SWIFT Xi”. More information here. SWIFT-Xi call for accelerating social innovation: Cultivating innovation and developing disruptive technologies for systems of autonomous systems, robotics & AI, urban mobility, and power management. Swift-Xi Inc. is a Japanese joint venture between Swift Engineering Inc. and the Kobe Institute of Computing, located in the city of Kobe in Hyogo prefecture.

I look forward to the day of working together to the purpose of developing Africa with all the computing needs the people there might need to transforms regions and countries together. There, Mr. Matsunaga our IT representative with our delegation to Guinea Africa, filled his responsibility with the introduction of what I think is the most advance Japanese educational group that fits perfectly the demanding need for the systematic development of the Motherland Africa.
