The Economic Stimulus Programme (ESP) is an important initiative geared at resuscitating the national economy, and public officers

... Promote ESPare duty-bound to disseminate information pertaining to it, the Permanent Secretary to the President (PSP), Mr Carter Morupisi has said.

Addressing employees of twin departments Information and Broadcasting Services at the Mass Media Complex on, December 4, Mr Morupisi said that the general public depend on them.

“I have recently met senior officers from these departments on matters relating to the ESP, and I found it necessary to meet other officers who are involved at the editorial and news production level about what the ESP entails, and the need to inform the nation about it.” He said that these meetings were in recognition that the Information and Broadcasting Services departments are major stakeholders in terms of reaching out to the public with news. Mr Morupisi explained that the ESP would not be a purely government-driven initiative, with the private sector also expected to play an important role.

He outlined the goals of the ESP as to stimulate the economy, diversification through the Economic Diversification Drive (EDD), and to accelerate job creation. Mr Morupisi mentioned the targeted sectors as agricultural production, tourism development, economic diversification drive, manufacturing, buildings and road construction and maintenance, re-skilling of youth, and the establishment of

Special Economic Zones.“Government will provide resources to

facilitate this to happen, building on existing good programmes, covering a backlog of developmental objectives, the maintenance of roads, schools and health facilities,” he said. The Kanye-based BOPA Southern Bureau Chief, Ms Sereki Mpitse appreciated the views of the PSP and pointed out that journalists often have to cover a diversity of views pertaining to programmes being availed to the public.

Earlier, the Deputy Permanent Secretary- Information and Broadcasting in the Ministry of Presidential Affairs and Public Administration, Mr Mogomotsi Kaboeamodimo introduced the officers as news editors and reporters of the Botswana Press Agency (BOPA), the Daily News, Kutlwano, Radio Botswana and Botswana Television, as well as their online units.

Mr Kaboeamodimo welcomed Mr Morupisi to Mass Media Complex, and thanked him for taking time to enlighten staff about the ESP.

Mr Morupisi was accompanied by the Secretary for Presidential Affairs and Public Administration, Ms Kebonye Moepeng and the Deputy Permanent Secretary in the Office of the President Kesego Okie.

The directors of the Information and Broadcasting Services departments, respectively Mr Bome Matshaba and Mr Lesole Obonye also graced the occasion.

Despite being limited in terms of numbers, employees at the Masunga I n f o r m a t i o n Services office would not lag

behind in efforts to add value to the lives of under-privileged members of the communities they serve.

At the beginning of 2015, the four-man staff established a wellness committee, and, among the several possible projects that were tossed around, one stood out in comparison to the rest.

A Standard Five pupil at Masunga Primary School, Lopang Dintwa, who is a regular customer to the Masunga Information Office, seemed to have touched the hearts of the local staff.

A resolution was made that the wellness committee would every term consult Lopang’s parents to find out what school uniform item could be both for him.

Though not all of Lopang’s needs were

met, the Masunga office is certain that for at least the next year, his parents will not have to worry about buying the various items that were bought by the wellness committee to make him look presentable on any given school day.

Mr Kaboyeamodimo appreciated the meeting saying their visit was to check on the wellbeing of regional staff.

He drew the employees’ attention to the importance of performance reviews, public service charter, customer service feedback, customer service standards, and the recently introduced Economic stimulus Programme (ESP), among others.

The DPS said ESP was introduced to boost the country’s economic growth and accelerate job creation; as such, the state media are encouraged to research and know more about the programme to inform and educate the public about it.

He also underscored the importance of putting on name tags every work day.

On behalf of the regional employees, Northern Bureau Chief (Information Services), Mr Leatile Chamo appreciated the visit, but decried the shortage of official transport, office accommodation and staff accommodation, among others.

Mr Chamo said the three departments worked as a team sharing the limited resources available to them.

Dream Believe ......and have Faith

Kutlwano ReturnsThe oldest and most popular magazine in the country has made a welcome return in its usual glossy look. From its humble beginnings as a small dull looking monthly selling for 2 and half cents to an internationally competitive product, the popularity of Kutlwano Magazine has spurred it to undergo major transformations in a bid to reach world standards.


Between October and November last year there was uncertainty about the future of the Magazine after printing was stopped

following printing suspension due to problem with the printing tender. This followed the expiry of the contract between the Department and Global Printers in March.

A meeting between Publications Divisions managers announced the suspension of print for the magazine. However evaluation process resumed in May this year after the Department was instructed to resume printing the magazine.

Kutlwano Editor Thomas Nkhoma has reiterated that the magazine will continue with

its efforts to capture the history and heritage of Batswana, “It’s a family magazine and also contemporary.

As a growing brand our intension is also to target a dynamic audience to compete with world standards,” he told Byline.

As an iconic brand Nkhoma is of a strong feeling that the revamped product must set the tone in the industry.

Despite advancing its content to match today’s modern society, Kutlwano will not in any way disregard its rural audience through thought provoking feature articles from the countryside and its satiric and inspiring regulars features.

Kutlwano has become an important platform to reflect on the life of Batswana and its changes, redesigns and rebranding has made it more dynamic.

It continues to thrive on its all-time favorite regulars like Society in Action, Mokanoki and the undoubtedly popular social forum Mmamalome.

Another important feature is the refurbished online edition which is not only cost effective but also an excellent way of sharing local content with the rest of the world.

Currently the print run has been reduced from 20 000 to 10 000 copies.

Forty African editors and senior journalists recently went on a familiarization tour of India and attended the Third India-Africa Forum summit from October 22 to October 30

courtesy of the India government.The seven day tour included meeting officials of relevant

ministries, chambers of commerce, business and media houses.Among the organisations they toured included the Research

and Information System for Developing countries, Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Ltd, Indian Council of Agricultural Research, Kirloskar brother Limited, CNN-IBN studios, Delhi Institute of Information Technology, India Agricultural Research Institute, EXIM bank among others

The media personnel also had an opportunity to visit one of the Seven Wonders of the World the Taj Mahal, a white marble mausoleum, in Agra city some 200 kilometers from Delhi. Other touristic scenes visited were the grate Humayun’s tomb which it is said inspired the construction of the Taj Mahal.

Botswana was represented by BOPA’s Chief Information Officer Epena Ngatangue who was one of the panelists during the Third India-Africa Editors Forum on October 25 at the Jawaharlal Nehru Bhawan conference center. The panel discussion was on development partnership on agriculture, trade and investment ties, capacity building – development of social and physical infrastructure in Africa, health – generics, human resources development (scholarships, training programmes).

Other panelists were Dr Sachim Chaturvedi of the Research and Information System, Mr T.N Ninan, editor of Business Standard and Consulting Editor, Sakal Group Mr Vijay Naik.

In his presentation Mr Ngatangue said for development partnership to strive there was need for strong media collaboration between India and Africa. He said India media houses were not visible in Africa and vice versa.

He suggested an establishment of an India-Africa College of Journalism along the lines of the now defunct Nordic/SADC

Ngatangue In IndiaJournalism Institute which was based in Johannesburg. He said such an arrangement would enhance cultural exchange thus encouraging business to business interaction.

The journalists had an opportunity to intact with the India Prime Minister Mr Narendrea Modi who said India and Africa were now the bright spots of hope for the global economy.

All in all the journalists felt that there was little said about

Africa in the Indian media as it is the case also in the African media and this need to be rectified if the partnership between India and Africa had to be sustained.

The visit was worthwhile because the interaction the journalists had with senior government officials and India funded companies revealed that India was force to reckon with in the global economy.
