African Innovation and Manufacturing
It seems to me the African continent have all the natural resources to build a modern infrastructure abd be one of the most advanced continent in the world.
Africans consumes all aspects of consumer goods, however none manufactured solely by Africans and available on the world market.
Why this is not possible at the momeny.

There should be collect responce from all African countries including Africans outside Africa especially USA,Canada, UK, Europe, West Indies especially Trinidad&Tobago.
The Tobago THA will assist all Africans to have a secure place of residence with advance educational and cultural facilities.
Mohan Dass
All the Africans outside Africa can get together and pool their resources. The trinidad and Tobago government in the West Indies will give massive grants to Africans to start projects.
They have the expertise and the political guidance together with strategic planning to assist any nation on earth.
In Trinidad they advise nation like China, Japan, USA, All of Europe, in matters of science, technology, economics and a world leading carnival!

That is people with a good idea or a new innovation.
So my question for you is, are there people with ideas or new solutions to make Africa the innovative continent you would like it to become?
I am not an expert on science in Africa.
But in my prejudiced view, African are very creative in using existing technologies in a various ways.
But are normally not the ones who come up with the ideas and market this for the world to use it.
But i have just generalized a whole continent with a billion people, that's not fair.
There was a months weeks ago an South-African black boy who invented a bath without water.
http://www.ted.com/talks/ludwick_marishane_a_bath_without_water.html
He had a great idea which eventually was developed.
But the development after the idea was done by probably non-african companies.
So if you believe Africa has to play a more important role in science, the idea of Ludwick Marishane should have been worked out in detail by African companies. Do you think that is the way to go for Africa?
Do you think this is attainable within the next 10 years?

May I invite you to visit Tobago in the West Indies, you will see the dynamics of Africans, and Trinidad how this genius is applied.
Mohan Dass
Go to Trinidad&Tobago in the West Indies especially Tobago and you will see what Africans can do for world commerce, banking, communication, high tech engineers, brilliant politicians, and money transfer business.
If you are travelling by boat please tell the captain not to go antwhere near Calcutta, or India, anywhere else is acceptable in order to gain entry to Tobago.
The islands of Trinidad&Tobago are model island nations, corruption nil, murder nil, racial superiority practice nil, this is paradise, please visit Sir.

It is becoming increasingly difficult, if not already impossible, to find a consumer product produced solely on one continent. Africa will soon take its place in the global marketplace, and will never need to manufacture anything solely on its own.

Africans need to e trained and work hard to make a product valuable in all the world
but it's possible, not in just one night, but soon with hard work and united work of Africans.
