We Are Alive And Thriving - My Actifit Report Card: July 4 2022

(Edited)

Good evening Hivians,
I wish you all a great evening.
We are alive and thriving in every aspect.

This morning, my employees were giddy with enthusiasm. They danced around the bakery premises as if someone had won a jackpot. I couldn't help but offer them some cool drinks! It was worth the celebration, and you'll get to know why soon.

Of course, they were not the only ones, right from the factory premises, we could hear the echoes of joy spread wildly like contamination everywhere. Even older people couldn't hold back their expression of happiness. When I visited the main town, the city market centre, I saw a jubilating crowd moving like a train.

Mali has been in a terrible economic situation for some time. If you are up to date with international news, you might have heard that the former Mali president was ousted from power through a military coup in 2020 and later died in 2022. Since then the military had been at the helms of state affairs refusing to enter into negotiations with the regional governing body.

As a result, Mali has been subject to harsh commercial, financial, economic, and cross-border sanctions imposed by the ECOWAS, African Union, and western powers since January 1, 2022. There were no trade relations between the nation and its neighbours. The regional power shut down the nation's central bank. This was very tough for a nation that was already experiencing intense financial turmoil.

The average person is most impacted by the current unmanageable cost of living because the cost of food and other essentials quadrupled. Food items that once cost $1 are now $5. For instance, a bag of flour that I used to purchase for $28 has increased to between $44 and $45.

So, what sparked this overwhelming joy?
Yesterday, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) elected a new leader (Guinea Bissau President, his excellency Umaro Embalo) to take over the organization's affairs. Immediately after his election to the apex office, he ordered that all embargos against Mali and two other countries in the region be lifted forthwith.

The general public and company owners are greatly relieved by this. The incoming ECOWAS president was fully aware of the damage that these sanctions have caused innocent people and businesses in Mali. This is the reason he decided to resolve the problem yesterday before returning to his nation.

Malians are grateful. I could hear them chant, "President Umaro Embalo and the people of Guinea Bissau are Mali's true friends and brothers. We have enormous regard for Mr. President and his people. Malians will never forget them."

As a business person living in Mali, I also share in this joy because I know that in the coming days' things will change positively. Certainly, there is going to be smooth movement of goods and people among the neighbouring states and international flights to and from Mali will also resume again.

I left the factory earlier to avoid traffic at the peak hours, else I won't be home till late at night. After taking a bit of rest, I started my actifit sports activities within my house premises and on the decking.

Hope this post was informative,

Thank you for reading.

May your evening be blessed with happiness

================================================================

Buenas noches Hivianos,
Les deseo a todos una gran noche.
Estamos vivos y prosperando en todos los aspectos.

Esta mañana, mis empleados estaban mareados de entusiasmo. Bailaron alrededor de las instalaciones de la panadería como si alguien hubiera ganado un premio gordo. ¡No pude evitar ofrecerles algunas bebidas frías! Valió la pena la celebración, y pronto sabrás por qué.

Por supuesto, no eran los únicos, desde las instalaciones de la fábrica, podíamos escuchar los ecos de alegría que se extendían salvajemente como la contaminación por todas partes. Incluso las personas mayores no pudieron contener su expresión de felicidad. Cuando visité la ciudad principal, el centro comercial de la ciudad, vi una multitud jubilosa que se movía como un tren.

Mali ha estado en una situación económica terrible durante algún tiempo. Si está al día con las noticias internacionales, es posible que haya escuchado que el expresidente de Malí fue derrocado del poder mediante un golpe militar en 2020 y luego murió en 2022. Desde entonces, los militares han estado al frente de los asuntos estatales negándose a entrar. en negociaciones con el órgano de gobierno regional.

Como resultado, Malí ha estado sujeto a duras sanciones comerciales, financieras, económicas y transfronterizas impuestas por la CEDEAO, la Unión Africana y las potencias occidentales desde el 1 de enero de 2022. No hubo relaciones comerciales entre la nación y sus vecinos. El poder regional cerró el banco central de la nación. Esto fue muy difícil para una nación que ya estaba experimentando una intensa agitación financiera.

La persona promedio es la más afectada por el inmanejable costo de vida actual porque el costo de los alimentos y otros artículos esenciales se cuadriplicó. Los alimentos que antes costaban $1 ahora cuestan $5. Por ejemplo, una bolsa de harina que solía comprar por $28 aumentó a entre $44 y $45.

Entonces, ¿qué provocó esta alegría abrumadora?
Ayer, la Comunidad Económica de los Estados de África Occidental (ECOWAS) eligió a un nuevo líder (Presidente de Guinea Bissau, Su Excelencia Umaro Embalo) para hacerse cargo de los asuntos de la organización. Inmediatamente después de su elección para la oficina principal, ordenó que se levantaran todos los embargos contra Malí y otros dos países de la región.

El público en general y los propietarios de empresas se sienten muy aliviados por esto. El presidente entrante de la CEDEAO era plenamente consciente del daño que estas sanciones han causado a personas y empresas inocentes en Malí. Por eso decidió resolver el problema ayer antes de regresar a su nación.

Los malienses están agradecidos. Podía escucharlos cantar: "El presidente Umaro Embalo y el pueblo de Guinea Bissau son los verdaderos amigos y hermanos de Malí. Tenemos un enorme respeto por el señor presidente y su pueblo. Los malienses nunca los olvidarán".

Como persona de negocios que vive en Mali, también comparto esta alegría porque sé que en los próximos días las cosas cambiarán positivamente porque habrá un movimiento fluido de bienes y personas entre los estados vecinos y vuelos internacionales hacia y desde Mali. también se reanudará de nuevo.

Salí de la fábrica antes para evitar el tráfico en las horas pico, de lo contrario no estaré en casa hasta altas horas de la noche. Después de descansar un poco, comencé mis actividades deportivas activas dentro de las instalaciones de mi casa y en la terraza.

Espero que esta publicación haya sido informativa,

Gracias por leer.

Que tu noche sea bendecida con felicidad.
