PowerCircle ABC, #Pieoneers2017 Since the 2008 global recession, Botswana has experienced a staggering upsurge in the unemployment rate. From a consistent 17.5 to a solid 20%. Inflation was no exception, at least we seen it drop to an all time minimum of 3.3% in April 2017. But for a country the size of France and a population of 3 million people what could possibly be the reason for such a high unemployment rate? We have all witnessed the tragic collapse of the diamond and beef international markets right in front of  our very eyes.  This pushed the government's efforts to traject towards diversifying in attempts to save the economy.  We have seen youth grants, loans and project financing by various arms of government in the last few years to fulfill citizen empowerment.  Many companies are either restructuring, downsizing and or shutting down completely,  tremendously  cutting down chances of ever finding reliable employment.

Okavango Delta #PieoneersBlog #BW Our Pride, Your Destination The Executive Director of Brand Management (Esther Morris) invites Batswana to take charge in marketing the Botswana Brand. This call comes in efforts to promote diversity from the mining sector to the tourism industry that is flourishing with utmost potential. Despite being a semi-arid country, Botswana has some of the most beautiful wetlands dazzling to the eye. The Okavango Delta is a prime example of such a paradise.  It is only right that it is amongst the most famous inland ecosystems in the world housing some of the planet’s endangered species in the animal kingdom. Winter as it is now, presents itself as the perfect season to visit the magnificent Okavango. This is accredited to the Delta’s uniqueness of having a ‘second wet season’ which then nature dictates the animals migration patterns to sprint from everywhere else to flock the floodplains. Words truly cannot ascribe the Okavango Delta’s...
