I do thank Rosemary Momanyi of EABL for the Invitation to the Johnny
Walker 'Experience' at the Sankara Hotel last Night. It was a great
deal of Fun. There was a Experiential Compere from South Africa whom I
momentarily confused with Tom Cruise's character in Magnolia YouTube
http://bit.ly/fRC8nN - If You have never watched Magnolia You should.
Of Course, He was not but he was quite a Poet and to hear him describe
Scottish Whiskies in this South African Brogue was a real Pleasure.

And Then as I drove home I remembered my English Teacher Dickie Jacobs
who decided that at 14, we could and should be exposed to Fine Wines.
And He expected us to spit everything out. And We did not. And after
an hour He had all these 14 Year Olds completely drunk running around
Westminster Abbey and he started to cry. He loved Poetry and was the
Catalyst for me too.

The Tape that is preeminent is the Chinese One.

Home Thoughts

Aysha has taken herself off on a Camel safari. She told me the last
time her Camel was both truculent and threw up and She described the
Contents in great Detail, apparently very Green. So She was not
desperately excited about this 3 Day Camel Safari Prospect. Aysha's
Younger Sisters had somehow ousted their Mother in the Night. They are
clearly both a lot smaller than me but You would hardly believe it
given the amount of Space They can take up in My bed. And Woe Betide
Me if I try and manouevre myself some Space.

North Korea on Tuesday fired dozens of artillery shells at a South
Korean island, setting buildings on fire and prompting a return of
fire by the South, Seoul's military and media reports said.

A witness said residents of the island of Yeonpyeong, off the west
coast of the peninsula near a disputed maritime border, had been
evacuated.

Yonhap news agency said four South Korean soldiers had been wounded in
the shelling, the biggest attack in years.

Conclusions

Is this Rogue or are they an Agent?

Thought frosty relations between China and Japan were thawing? You
might want to think again. China has sent two ships to patrol the
disputed islands in the East China Sea–called Diaoyu in Chinese and
Senkaku in Japanese–that lie at the heart of the latest diplomatic
flare-up between the two East Asian powers. Video courtesy of Reuters.

Conclusions

The Chinese continue to explore a More Forward Position.

China’s biggest banks are close to reaching annual lending quotas and
plan to stop expanding their loan books to avoid exceeding the limits,
according to four people with knowledge of the matter.Industrial &
Commercial Bank of China Ltd., Bank of China Ltd. and Agricultural
Bank of China Ltd. are only extending new loans as existing ones get
repaid, the people said, speaking on condition of anonymity. The
lenders are also cutting holdings of short-term discounted bills to
make room for longer-term loans, according to the people.

Regulators are monitoring banks’ loan balances on a daily basis to
ensure the official target of 7.5 trillion yuan ($1.1 trillion) in new
lending for 2010 isn’t exceeded, the people said. China’s government
in the past month stepped up a campaign to limit credit expansion
after inflation quickened and property prices surged.

In November 2008, China removed an annual quota for new loans and
started encouraging lending to revive an economy stung by the global
financial crisis. New loans soared to a record $1.4 trillion the
following year, fueling property speculation that caused home prices
to skyrocket.Domestic banks extended about 6.9 trillion yuan of new
loans this year through October, according to central bank data. The
lenders have made close to 600 billion yuan of new loans so far this
month, the 21st Century Business Herald reported today. That would
bring the total for this year to 7.5 trillion yuan.

China’s inflation accelerated to 4.4 percent in October, the fastest
pace in two years. The central bank last month raised interest rates
for the first time since 2007, and told banks to set aside more
deposits as reserves twice in November, limiting their capacity to
lend.

China should return to a “normalized” monetary policy as quantitative
easing in the U.S. pumps cash into the world’s fastest-growing economy
and fuels price risks, Zhang Jianhua, head of research at the central
bank, said this month.

Concerns that the central bank will have to step up measures to
contain inflation have pushed the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index
down 11 percent from a seven-month high on Nov 8. The gauge dropped
2.6 percent today to a six-week low.

The U.S. dollar strength against major currencies is “a sign that
investors are nervous about the consequences of Ireland’s decision to
receive financial aid,” Kathy Lien.

“For Ireland, the decision has opened up a can of worms. Rating agency
Moody’s warned that the country could face a multi-notch downgrade,
while the Green Party confirmed their plans to leave the government
after approving the 2011 budget and the aid package,” she said. But
“the real reason why Ireland’s announcement triggered more concern
amongst investors than relief is because of contagion,” she said,
explaining that “the focus shifted quickly to Spain and Portugal, as
investors wondering whether they would suffer the same fate as Ireland

“If negative sentiment on the periphery continues, than we would
expect a retest of the November lows for EUR/USD around $1.3460, which
happens to be the 50% retracement level of the big September-November
rise,” wrote Win Thin, an analyst at Brown Brothers Harriman.

Conclusions

Europe trumps Bernanke.

Democratic Republic of Congo has replaced the leadership of state
mining company Gecamines due to management deficiencies and its
failure to make the most of rising metals prices, officials said on
Monday.Nine officials were sacked at the weekend in a shake-up ordered
by President Joseph Kabila, according to officials at the mines
ministry and the office of the prime minister.

"The old management team lacked -- despite many years -- the
initiative to increase production despite favourable prices of
copper/cobalt, and (failed due to) bad management of partnerships,"
Mines Minister Martin Kabwelulu told Reuters by text message.

Kabwelulu said Ahmed Kalej, previously treasury director at the
central bank, has replaced Callixte Mukasa as director of Gecamines,
which mainly mines copper and cobalt in Katanga.Albert Yuma, head of
the country's business federation FEC, will become president of the
board, while Jacques Kamenga will deputise for Kalej, officials at the
mines ministry said.

Copper production in Congo is believed to be rising but official
estimates of output vary widely.

Mines ministry forecasts from earlier this year saw production in 2011
from the Katanga region at 516,000 tonnes, mainly due to joint
ventures with international firms, but Katanga governor Moise Katumbi
told Reuters last week the figure would top one million tonnes next
year.

At its peak in the late 1980s, Gecamines produced more than 470,000
tonnes of copper and more than 13,000 tonnes of cobalt. But the
decline in the company's fortunes mirrored those of the country, which
saw rampant corruption under the late president Mobutu Sese Seko,
followed by two wars in the 1990s.

Outgoing Gecamines director Mukasa told Reuters last week that
Gecamines has accumulated $1.5 billion in debt following years of
mismanagement under Mobutu.

Rwanda said on Monday it would raise 22.1 billion Rwandan francs from
the sale of its 30 percent stake in brewer Bralirwa, the first initial
public offering in the central African country.Finance Minister John
Rwangombwa told a news conference the government would sell 128.6
million shares, or 25 percent of the company, at 136 francs. He said
the shares were valued at 170 francs but offered at a discount to
encourage buyers.The other 5 percent of the government's stake will be
sold to the Heineken Group, which already holds the remaining 70
percent of Bralirwa.

The share offer runs from November 23 to December 17.

Bralirwa sells brands such as Amstel, Guinness, Mutzig and Primus, a
local brand. It bottles Coca Cola products.

Withholding tax on dividends on listed companies is now 5 percent,
down from 15 percent. Tax interest on listed bonds with a maturity of
three years is now 5 percent from 15 percent and corporate income
taxes were reduced to the lower rates ranging from 28 percent to 20
percent.The government is set to sell off its 10 percent stake in
mobile operator MTN Rwanda. The South African-based MTN Group has a 55
percent stake in the Rwandan operation.Rwanda also plans to sell a 20
percent stake in the country's biggest insurer, Sonarwa (Societe
Nouvelle d'Assurance du Rwanda). Nigeria's IGI owns a 35 percent stake
in the firm.

Conclusions

Given the Interest in African Beer and Beverages - I reckon this will
be a Sell Out.

Comet Properties Ltd., a Ghanaian real-estate developer, plans to
raise 62 million cedis ($43 million) in an initial public offering set
to begin Dec. 28, according to Worldwide Securities, Comet’s adviser
on the offer.

The company, based in Accra, plans to sell the shares for 1 cedi each
for four weeks, before listing on the Ghana Stock Exchange likely by
early March, said Rexford Adomako-Bonsu, Worldwide’s chairman, in a
phone interview today. Comet will be the first real-estate company
listed on the Ghanaian bourse.

Kenya is seriously considering tapping international bond markets
should domestic yields rise, following a sovereign debt rating upgrade
last week, a senior Treasury official told Reuters on Monday.

East Africa's biggest economy received a boost when Standard & Poor's
Ratings Services raised its credit rating to B-plus from B on Friday,
saying the country's political risks have fallen after Kenya adopted a
new constitution.

"The domestic market also has low rates. We are looking at whichever
is cheaper now," Henry Rotich, deputy director for economic affairs at
the Treasury, told Reuters.

Kenya had plans to raise at least $500 million in a debut Eurobond in
2007, but shelved the project when the global financial crisis hit.

"We are still keeping alive our intentions to go to international
capital markets. This rating is good for a bond," Rotich said.

Treasury’s plan to borrow money from international markets received a
boost after global rating firm, Standard and Poors, revised upwards
Kenya’s credit rating, making it possible for the government to issue
a sovereign bond at lower costs.

Analysts say the higher rating will add momentum to the country’s plan
of issuing an international bond to plug a total deficit of Sh167
billion in this year’s budget. Standard and Poors assigned Kenya a B+
rating, up from plain B, in a report released last week, capturing the
country’s improving international profile after the peaceful passage
of a new constitution and better economic prospects for the year 2010.

Aly-Khan Satchu, analyst and owner of data-vending firm Rich
Management, said Kenya’s sovereign bond is likely too be a hit with
international investors. “I think it (rating) does improve the chances
of Kenya issuing a Eurobond. There has been a rising appetite for
African sovereign credit and the Government would be wise to take this
opportunity to issue a benchmark EuroBond which in turn will be the
Open Sesame for East African corporate credit to access the deep pools
of liquidity in the international markets.”

He said this year might well prove to be a tipping point for the
continent with the American retail giant Wal-Mart’s intended purchase
of South Africa’s MassMart being but a pre-eminent example of Africa
popping up on investors’ radars.

“I think international investors still rely on credit ratings agencies
and this might well be the green light for them,” said Mr Satchu.

Why has the developed world been so slow to adopt the mobile
wallet?Think of the developing world, and the first thing that springs
to mind probably isn't cutting edge technology.But since 2007, Kenya
has been leading the way with an innovative mobile phone technology
that has transformed the lives of millions of people and businesses.

Mobile money transfer allows those without a bank account to transfer
funds as quickly and easily as sending a text message.The most
successful of these systems, and the first to operate on a large
scale, is M-Pesa, a joint venture between mobile phone giant Vodafone
and Kenya's Safaricom. The M stands for mobile, and Pesa is Swahili
for money.

Over 50% of the adult population use the service to send money to
far-flung relatives, to pay for shopping, utility bills, or even a
night on the tiles and taxi ride home.

“They outperformed market expectations,” Aly-Khan Satchu, an
independent financial analyst, said in an interview in Nairobi. “We
are going to find this year that data is going to reach a tipping
point and they are showing they can lead.”

“As we had anticipated data is proving to be the next frontier,
delivering very significant benefits,” Collymore said. The number of
data subscribers
grew 92 percent to 3.6 million in the past 12 months, he said.

My Tweets from the Results Presentation

According to our report, mobile phone penetration has been increasing
in Kenya for the past few years and the trend is expected to continue
in future. Declining cost of mobile services, rising infrastructure,
mobile number portability, and intense competition among operators
will boost up growth in the coming years. Although the market has
largely been dominated by a single player, other operators are giving
tough competition to attract customers with different money plans.
Penetration of mobile into Kenya increased around 7 percentage points
from 2008 reaching around 50% at the end of 2009.

Our team of experts has found that, Kenya had the most intensive
mobile internet users in Africa in 2009, with each user browsing an
average of 525 pages monthly. In addition, the country has moved up
one place to attain number three slot in the list of top 10 African
countries, with the highest users of mobile internet during the same
year. This means that in the wider scenario, mobile internet usage is
much higher than many other developing countries. This is driven by
the cheaper cost of acquiring and maintaining the handsets compared to
laptops or desktop computers.

The Kenyan shilling weakened for the first time in seven trading days
after the central bank bought euros, forcing domestic lenders to cover
their short euro positions.
The currency weakened as much as 0.7 percent to 80.60 per dollar and
was trading at 80.20 shillings as of 12:35 p.m. in Nairobi, the
capital. The East African nation’s currency closed trading yesterday
at 80.05 shillings.Kenya’s central bank bought 5 million euros ($6.78
million) in the foreign-exchange market yesterday to build reserves
and support the government’s external payments, said an official at
the Central Bank of Kenya who can’t be identified in line with central
bank policy.

The M-Pesa network is a model for taking banking services to the
grassroots, the World Bank has said.The managing director, Ms Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala, said M-Pesa is the ideal story of why it pays to invest
in the poor.

"Africa has a culture of saving but people often do not have the
mechanisms to save. M-Pesa provides a low-cost transaction platform
which Kenyans can use to save," she told a conference in Washington DC
last week.

The bank's lead economist Wolfgang Fengler said the ICT sector kept
Kenya's economy growing at 3.7 percent through the last decade.

"Without the telecom sector, growth would have only been 2.8 percent,
barely matching population growth," he said. "Now, we see that ICT is
starting to transform other areas of the economy, especially the
financial sector." Mr Michael Joseph, the former CEO of Safaricom,
explained how M-Pesa had achieved such large scale success in Kenya,
and outlined the key elements for replicating its success.

He said that building trust with consumers using a strong brand, and
making it accessible even in the remotest of villages were vital.

Safaricom also made it a point to offer superior customer service and
built up a strong agent network through which customers could exchange
electronic balance for hard cash. M-Pesa currently has 23,000 agents
spread throughout Kenya.Panelist and ICT Sector Manager Philippe
Dongier said the M-Pesa experience offered huge opportunities to
replicate mobile banking globally.

"Given the difference between the level of access to mobile phones and
access to bank accounts, mobile banking has the unique potential to
bridge the gap between the banked and the unbanked," Mr Dongier said.

He also identified similar transformational opportunities combining
the use of mobile phones, geo-spatial tools and citizen feedback to
improve good governance and accountability.

Mr Joseph ended the conference by stressing the need to continually
innovate to meet customer needs, which in this case, are the poor and
under served.

He cited the recently launched M-Kesho, which gives any M-Pesa
customer the ability to start saving with as little as $1 and earn
interest on the principal.

"Kesho" is Kiswahili for "tomorrow" or the "future." Joseph mentioned
that in the short time since its introduction, M-Kesho has resulted in
approximately 650,000 users opening saving accounts.

Mr Joseph shared that M-Pesa has become so ubiquitous that customers
have even turned the name of the platform into a verb.

"M-Pesa is so successful, now it has become a part of the Kenyan
vocabulary and is used to describe mobile payments: people in Kenya
now 'm-pesa' their money," he said.

Conclusions

Safaricom was unchanged at 4.55 and traded 4th overall. At a Trailing
PE of 11.974, I believe the 'Voice' News is all in the Price. I
recently saw a Report which said that Kenya had the most intensive
mobile internet users in Africa in 2009, with each user browsing an
average of 525 pages monthly. Thats a Hyper Growth Curve right there
and Safaricom are the Outsize Leader in Data. I think the Price has
not properly factored in the Data Story.

Scangroup was marked down Limit 9.83% to close at 55.00 and traded
12,600 shares. ScanGroup has now posted a 127.314% 1 Year Return and

TPS Serena was the 5th most actively traded share today. TPS Serena

Centum reported 1st Half Results 2010 PBT +712% which is a High Beta
Turnaround. At the CDC Dinner at the Muthaiga Residence of the British
Ambassador last week, James Mworia oozed confidence as I remarked to
him. “The improved performance was driven by a significant improvement
in investment income from both the private equity and real estate
business lines,” Mworia said. “All revenue lines went up.”Centum plans
to grow its total portfolio to 30 billion shillings by 2014, from 11.8
billion shillings at the end of September, Mworia said. The company
also further plans to reduce the proportion of investments in Kenya to
50 percent by 2014 from 97 percent at the moment, he said. Centum has
been re tooled and re engineered for a higher Alpha Growth Trajectory
but recall this Comparison is versus a Period when the Earnings were
depressed by the taking of an RVR Impairment, a great deal of which
was subsequently written Back. Centum firmed 2.22% to close at 23.00
and was trading out the Session at 23.50 +4.44%. Centum traded 595,000
