Relations between Indonesia and Africa have always been strong and vibrant for decades. Indonesia has a legacy as the host of the 1955 Asia-Africa Conference which was aimed to build global solidarity in opposing colonialism and seeking economic and cultural cooperation among newly independent countries. The conference shed light for the advancement of cooperation between Asian and African nations through initiatives such as the Non – Alignment Movement and the 2005 New Asian-African Strategic Partnership (NAASP). Indonesia remains consistent in its efforts to strengthen ties with Asian-African countries, as shown through the Commemoration of the 60th Anniversary of the Asian – African Conference in 2015 where delegates pledged commitments to building stronger, more inclusive and sustainable cooperation.
Stepping forward from these political and historical legacies, Indonesia has the ambition to seriously improve economic relations with Africa. Indonesia is the largest economy in Southeast Asia, the world’s fourth most populous nation, the world’s 10th largest economy in terms of purchasing power parity, and a member of the G-20. The average country’s economic growth from 2007 - 2016 was 5.7%, the third highest in the G20. Indonesia’s GDP is expected to expand continuously.
According to Asian Nikkei and PwC reports, Indonesia is on track to become the world’s fourth largest economy by 2050. To maintain its high economic growth, Indonesia has made inroads in diversifying export bases to include more complex sectors. In that context, Indonesian President Joko Widodo has repeatedly urged Indonesian business sectors to expand engagement with emerging countries, such as Africa, including at the recent G20 Leaders’ Retreat in Hamburg, in which the President stated Indonesia’s support for the G20 Africa Partnership and the achievement of Agenda 2063 in Africa through Compact with Africa. The importance of economic partnership between African countries and Indonesia is also highlighted within IORA cooperation to achieve a sustainable and equitable growth for all.
Recent economic indicators have clearly shown Africa’s potential. The economy of sub-Saharan Africa grew around 3.5% in 2016, the second highest in the world after Asia. In 2020, according to IMF, Africa is the 2nd largest continent that enjoys high growth of 4.3%. Furthermore, in terms of population, approximately 62% of the African population is under 25 years-old, meaning that there will be an abundant work force that can help increase Africa’s economic growth even higher. It is predicted that in 2034, Africa is expected to have the world’s largest working-age population of 1.1 billion. Currently, there is around a 330 million middle class population in Africa that has increasingly stronger purchasing power. Reinforcing the positive outlook for growth is a continuing rise in infrastructure investment among African countries. Spending on infrastructure has doubled over the past decade, and now stands at 3.5% of GDP.
Understanding these realities, Indonesia believes that it is a right time for Indonesia and Africa to strengthen economic cooperation. The 2016 trade exchange between Indonesia and Africa reached USD 7.66 billion and there is still a lot of room for economic potential among the two entities.
To realize all economic potential, it is important to generate possible economic cooperation through a forum that targets all relevant stakeholders, encompassing government, business and other private sectors. In this connection, we would like to organize, “Indonesia-Africa Forum” on 10 – 11 April 2018 in Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center, Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia.
The Collaboration on International ICT Policy for East and Southern Africa (CIPESA), under the OpenNet Africa initiative, is proud to announce the upcoming Forum on Internet Freedoms in East Africa. The two-day Forum is scheduled for 28 – 29 September 2015, in Kampala, Uganda, to coincide with the International Right to Know Day.
During the Forum, we’ll discuss the current state of internet freedoms in Africa, including threats, emerging issues, and opportunities for action to promote access, privacy and security online. The Forum brings together human rights defenders, journalists, government officials, academia, bloggers, developers, the arts community, law enforcement agencies and communication regulators, all of whom have a role to play in advancing the rights of citizens to privacy and freedom of expression in the online sphere. At the inaugural 2014 forum, we hosted 85 participants from Burundi, Kenya, Nigeria, Tanzania, Rwanda, and Uganda

Internet forum
An Internet forum, or message board, is an online discussion site where people can hold conversations in the form of posted messages. They differ from chat rooms in that messages are often longer than one line of text, and are at least temporarily archived. Also, depending on the access level of a user or the forum set-up, a posted message might need to be approved by a moderator before it becomes visible.
Forums have a specific set of jargon associated with them; e.g., a single conversation is called a "thread", or topic.
A discussion forum is hierarchical or tree-like in structure: a forum can contain a number of subforums, each of which may have several topics. Within a forum's topic, each new discussion started is called a thread, and can be replied to by as many people as so wish.
Depending on the forum's settings, users can be anonymous or have to register with the forum and then subsequently log in in order to post messages. On most forums, users do not have to log in to read existing messages.

Internet censorship
Internet censorship is the control or suppression of what can be accessed, published, or viewed on the Internet. It may be carried out by governments or by private organizations at the behest of government, regulators, or on their own initiative. Individuals and organizations may engage in self-censorship for moral, religious, or business reasons, to conform to societal norms, due to intimidation, or out of fear of legal or other consequences.
The extent of Internet censorship varies on a country-to-country basis. While most democratic countries have moderate Internet censorship, other countries go as far as to limit the access of information such as news and suppress discussion among citizens. Internet censorship also occurs in response to or in anticipation of events such as elections, protests, and riots. An example is the increased censorship due to the events of the Arab Spring. Other areas of censorship include copyrights, defamation, harassment, and obscene material.

Africa
Africa is the world's second-largest and second-most-populous continent. At about 30.2 million km2 (11.7 million sq mi) including adjacent islands, it covers six percent of Earth's total surface area and 20.4 percent of its total land area. With 1.1 billion people as of 2013, it accounts for about 15% of the world's human population. The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, both the Suez Canal and the Red Sea along the Sinai Peninsula to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The continent includes Madagascar and various archipelagos. It contains 54 fully recognized sovereign states (countries), nine territories and two de facto independent states with limited or no recognition.
Africa's population is the youngest amongst all the continents; the median age in 2012 was 19.7, when the worldwide median age was 30.4.Algeria is Africa's largest country by area, and Nigeria by population. Africa, particularly central Eastern Africa, is widely accepted as the place of origin of humans and the Hominidae clade (great apes), as evidenced by the discovery of the earliest hominids and their ancestors, as well as later ones that have been dated to around seven million years ago, including Sahelanthropus tchadensis, Australopithecus africanus, A. afarensis, Homo erectus, H. habilis and H. ergaster – with the earliest Homo sapiens (modern human) found in Ethiopia being dated to circa 200,000 years ago. Africa straddles the equator and encompasses numerous climate areas; it is the only continent to stretch from the northern temperate to southern temperate zones.

Top 10 African businesses that will make quick millionaires in 2017 & beyondTop 10 African businesses that will make quick millionaires in 2017 & beyond
For decades, the biggest business opportunities in Africa were created through “traditional” sources, especially from the trade and export of raw and non-value-added commodities such as crude oil, timber, gold, coal, cocoa, tea, coffee, leather and several others. Today, the wealth that is breeding a new generation of millionaires in Africa is being created through new and unconventional business opportunities. These business opportunities are simmering beneath Africa’s endless stream of unsolved problems, underserved needs and everyday frustrations. New wealth on the continent is emerging from solving problems and creating value, and not from “old school” resource extraction. In this video, we share with you the top business opportunities in Africa that are very likely to make more millionaires in 2017 and even beyond. We acknowledge John-Paul Iwuoha for his wonderful article adopted for this video. Thanks and drop your comment on how we can serve you better videos. -

In September 2015, the Collaboration on International ICT Policy for East and Southern Africa (CIPESA), under the OpenNet Africa initiative, held the second Forum on Internet Freedom in East Africa (September 28–29). in Kampala, Uganda. The two-day forum coincided with the International Right to Know Day and served as a platform to discuss the state of internet freedom in Africa, including threats, emerging issues, and opportunities for action to promote access, privacy and security online. The Forum was also used to launch the 2015 edition of the State of Internet Freedom in East Africa report (http://www.cipesa.org/?wpfb_dl=193) , which is centred on citizens’ knowledge and perceptions of internet freedom and the effect of information controls on the online behaviours and freedom of expression for ordinary citizens, journalists and human rights defenders.

Wanuri Kahiu: We Need A New Image of Africa
AFROBUBBLEGUM is an online platform to celebrate African art that is “fun, fierce and frivolous” – and that does not portray people in Africa as sick or dying, in need of saving, desperate or hopeless or lost. Kenyan filmmaker Wanuri Kahiu explains why joyful portrayals of Africans nurture the ability to hope for a better future.

Top 10 African businesses that will make quick millionaires in 2017 & beyond
For decades, the biggest business opportunities in Africa were created through “traditional” sources, especially from the trade and export of raw and non-value-added commodities such as crude oil, timber, gold, coal, cocoa, tea, coffee, leather and several others. Today, the wealth that is breeding a new generation of millionaires in Africa is being created through new and unconventional business opportunities. These business opportunities are simmering beneath Africa’s endless stream of unsolved problems, underserved needs and everyday frustrations. New wealth on the continent is emerging from solving problems and creating value, and not from “old school” resource extraction. In this video, we share with you the top business opportunities in Africa that are very likely to make more mil...

Relations between Indonesia and Africa have always been strong and vibrant for decades. Indonesia has a legacy as the host of the 1955 Asia-Africa Conference which was aimed to build global solidarity in opposing colonialism and seeking economic and cultural cooperation among newly independent countries. The conference shed light for the advancement of cooperation between Asian and African nations through initiatives such as the Non – Alignment Movement and the 2005 New Asian-African Strategic Partnership (NAASP). Indonesia remains consistent in its efforts to strengthen ties with Asian-African countries, as shown through the Commemoration of the 60th Anniversary of the Asian – African Conference in 2015 where delegates pledged commitments to building stronger, more inclusive and sustainable cooperation.
Stepping forward from these political and historical legacies, Indonesia has the ambition to seriously improve economic relations with Africa. Indonesia is the largest economy in Southeast Asia, the world’s fourth most populous nation, the world’s 10th largest economy in terms of purchasing power parity, and a member of the G-20. The average country’s economic growth from 2007 - 2016 was 5.7%, the third highest in the G20. Indonesia’s GDP is expected to expand continuously.
According to Asian Nikkei and PwC reports, Indonesia is on track to become the world’s fourth largest economy by 2050. To maintain its high economic growth, Indonesia has made inroads in diversifying export bases to include more complex sectors. In that context, Indonesian President Joko Widodo has repeatedly urged Indonesian business sectors to expand engagement with emerging countries, such as Africa, including at the recent G20 Leaders’ Retreat in Hamburg, in which the President stated Indonesia’s support for the G20 Africa Partnership and the achievement of Agenda 2063 in Africa through Compact with Africa. The importance of economic partnership between African countries and Indonesia is also highlighted within IORA cooperation to achieve a sustainable and equitable growth for all.
Recent economic indicators have clearly shown Africa’s potential. The economy of sub-Saharan Africa grew around 3.5% in 2016, the second highest in the world after Asia. In 2020, according to IMF, Africa is the 2nd largest continent that enjoys high growth of 4.3%. Furthermore, in terms of population, approximately 62% of the African population is under 25 years-old, meaning that there will be an abundant work force that can help increase Africa’s economic growth even higher. It is predicted that in 2034, Africa is expected to have the world’s largest working-age population of 1.1 billion. Currently, there is around a 330 million middle class population in Africa that has increasingly stronger purchasing power. Reinforcing the positive outlook for growth is a continuing rise in infrastructure investment among African countries. Spending on infrastructure has doubled over the past decade, and now stands at 3.5% of GDP.
Understanding these realities, Indonesia believes that it is a right time for Indonesia and Africa to strengthen economic cooperation. The 2016 trade exchange between Indonesia and Africa reached USD 7.66 billion and there is still a lot of room for economic potential among the two entities.
To realize all economic potential, it is important to generate possible economic cooperation through a forum that targets all relevant stakeholders, encompassing government, business and other private sectors. In this connection, we would like to organize, “Indonesia-Africa Forum” on 10 – 11 April 2018 in Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center, Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia.

For decades, the biggest business opportunities in Africa were created through “traditional” sources, especially from the trade and export of raw and non-value-added commodities such as crude oil, timber, gold, coal, cocoa, tea, coffee, leather and several others.
Today, the wealth that is breeding a new generation of millionaires in Africa is being created through new and unconventional business opportunities.
These business opportunities are simmering beneath Africa’s endless stream of unsolved problems, underserved needs and everyday frustrations. New wealth on the continent is emerging from solving problems and creating value, and not from “old school” resource extraction.
In this video, we share with you the top business opportunities in Africa that are very likely to make more millionaires in 2017 and even beyond.
We acknowledge John-Paul Iwuoha for his wonderful article adopted for this video.
Thanks and drop your comment on how we can serve you better videos.

In September 2015, the Collaboration on International ICT Policy for East and Southern Africa (CIPESA), under the OpenNet Africa initiative, held the second Forum on Internet Freedom in East Africa (September 28–29). in Kampala, Uganda. The two-day forum coincided with the International Right to Know Day and served as a platform to discuss the state of internet freedom in Africa, including threats, emerging issues, and opportunities for action to promote access, privacy and security online.
The Forum was also used to launch the 2015 edition of the State of Internet Freedom in East Africa report (http://www.cipesa.org/?wpfb_dl=193) , which is centred on citizens’ knowledge and perceptions of internet freedom and the effect of information controls on the online behaviours and freedom of expression for ordinary citizens, journalists and human rights defenders.

Presented by the Center for Global Business, sponsored in-part by CIBER, a title VI grant from the U.S. Department of Education, at the Robert H. Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland
The Smith School's Center for Global Business convenes its 8th Annual Emerging Markets Forum on the theme of doing business in Africa. Since 2010, this conference series has examined the rise of new economic powers, increased awareness about emerging markets, and disseminated information about how U.S. companies can best succeed there.
One of the fastest growing economies in the world, Africa has many countries that have made diversification a priority. Opportunities abound for businesses that understand that trade, not aid, is the road to future prosperity.
Expert speakers from business, academia and policy will discuss the opportunities as well as challenges of doing business in Africa, including:
● Which countries are reforming and growing fastest?
● Which sectors are the most promising (now and in the future)?
● What opportunities have drawn U.S. businesses to Africa?
● What challenges do they face, and how have they overcome these challenges?

Executive Secretary of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) in Addis Ababa, Carlos Lopes, focused his keynote speech at the LafargeHolcim Forum 2016 on Africa’s Infrastructure Appetite. Africa is experiencing a demographic boom, with an expanding middle class and fast urbanization driving most of its growth but is lagging behind every other world region on infrastructure indicators. The potential to do much more is being seriously assessed by economic actors. Contextualizing the current market conditions and properly understanding risk will be an important contribution for the future.

Is it helping solve development challenges?
A new kind of African citizenry is consolidating itself right now, and it has a lot to do with the Internet. With each new mobile phone, with each new wireless connection, with each new social media interaction, the continent continues to embrace the most disruptive digital technologies. The growing accessibility of digital solutions, many of them homegrown, provides new models and opportunities for self-organized communities, political activism, and economic growth. It also raises new questions: who is providing the access: governments, local telcos, or American conglomerates?
As mobile money innovator M-Pesa turns ten this year, hot on its heels are an impressive number of “Made in Africa” solutions that claim to revolutionize the education, agriculture, health or energy industries. Digital technologies in Africa are all about being frugal, agile, and collaborative. It’s about starting from scratch, doing more with less, and growing faster. But are they really helping to solve Africa’s global challenges and, in return, do they provide a new model for development?
In 2011, MIT Sloan Associate Professor Tavneet Suri wrote that “technological progress or productivity improvements are the only way to have long-run sustained increases in income.” Still, many observers are disappointed in the pace of change, as many underserved African populations fail to see the new jobs and tangible results that are coming out of this new wave of tech.
This roundtable at MIT will explore and interrogate the socio-economic, cultural and geopolitical consequences of Africa’s leapfrog into new technologies.
