Hi Mwsnasheria Keregero
How are you. There an important issue that requires professional consultation that I believe would appropriately be received or rather enjoyed from you.
Out of this deal you will be paid 26m/- for the job expected to last for two months at most and the payment will be dished out right in three phases, first at the beginning of the job as advance or up-front payment, secondly the moment the job is half the way done and thirdly at the handing-over of the finished job.
If you are ready to take up the responsibilities just inform me and I will make sure that you take up the job and become rich within the shortest possible time. This is very important Mr. Keregero-Keregero bearing in mind that yor are a lawyer by profession and the contract or the assignment just about to be engaged with has a lot to do with legal matters.

End of Editors' Training workshop
Last Day of Editors’ workshop
Five days of intensive training workshop for editors in Dar es Salaam that I chanced to be one of the participants marked a memorable milestone or momentous opportunity in my computer knowledge. I am fifty times more enlightened on the subject than ever before.
The workshop conducted by Peik Jahansson, who is a seasoned Journalist and Training Consultant from Finland in collaboration with MISA- Tanzania at the Tanzania Global Development Centre, focused on “Journalism in the age of internet”.
Lessons provided throughout the learning period proved to be absolutely relevant to all of us as questions and doubts on ways to go about searching for information from various sources were answered adequately.
The following is a list of lessons that I personally gained during the five days of the workshop that I believe was conducted not only in a scholarly and professional way but also organized at the opportune time.
I learnt about what I can sum up as “Prepared Mind” meaning before laying a hand on a computer say searching for information one needs to be well focused. We need to know exactly what to look for to avoid unnecessary drifting of minds.
Now I know that Google is one of the best sources of information which can lead us to several other sources in order to obtain detailed information on the subject and perhaps the other side of it for the best record.
Truly accessibility to up-to-date information and the associated background which could have taken two days of search in the library is now possible through the internet and this allows extensive browsing over reliance on a single source.
Waaoh, I am extremely delighted and grateful to the organizers as I have been able to open my own blog. I am a Blogger effective this week.
Previously I had no one to teach me on the relevance of have a blog, the achievement that has added advantage and important working tool as a journalist.
Also I have learnt about posting or publishing stories in my blog and managed to post photo, the level of achievement that never registered before.
The lesson on ways to avoid plagiarism captured my imagination bearing in mind that plagiarism puts one in professional shame and therefore should be avoided at any cost.
Surely someone’s work could provide a good source of information but attribution is necessary when quoted. The Internet has really changed the world of information sharing across the continents.
Personally I don’t have any reservations for this wonderful learning opportunity given to us for the fact that the combination of participants from various media houses is commendable as gave a chance to media practitioners to exchange and share ideas more freely. Besides, contributions from fellow bloggers starting with fellow journalist will make a big difference in our carrier.
Thank for everything

Nestle Boycott
Nestle boycott
Day 4
For nearly three decades now the international community has continued to defend low income earners in developing nations that seem to have been reduced to a soft target by Nestle Business Company allegedly applying aggressive market strategies on selling their product and make profit at the expense of the lives of innocent children.
Campaigners around the world have raised voice against the promotion carried out by this company and created a general outlook popularly dubbed as nestle international boycott in support of poor families. Nestle or milk powder or sometimes referred to as formula is advertised as substitute to breast feeding.
However, campaigners around the world like those under International Baby Food Action, Save the Children, International Group on Breastfeeding Monitoring (IGBM), Baby Milk Action and others are standing firm on the need to educate communities and promote breast feeding. Campaigners are against what has been regarded as deliberate violation of marketing tactics/strategies by Nestle.
There at least four points that campaigners think should be given consideration by Nestle Company before pushing ahead with the frenzied profit-oriented business adverts which at the end of the day lured many to their own detriment.
First milk powder must be diluted with water that might not be clean or safe. As a result children fall sick especially in places where the hygienic condition is poor. Kinds of illness to vulnerable children include diarrhea, ear infection, bacterial meningitis, respiratory infection and others.
Secondly, children are less fed meaning they are given little formula (milk) to ‘save the budget’ bearing in mind that many poor families lacked enough resources to ensure regular feeding to the children.
Thirdly, during breast feeding a child receives natural nutrients from the mother while formula lacked the advantage all together.
Last but not the least bond between mother and child is strengthened during breast feeding and this should be encouraged to allow family cohesion.
In some countries like India, Pakistan and others Nestle was accused of bribing some medical professionals to help advertise the product such that it was offered for free in hospitals. But then outside the hospital the supply was not available for free as a result families should buy to sustain the feeding started in hospital.
Until today, the World Health Organization (WHO) and other stakeholders coordinated by International Nestle Boycott Committee with its secretariat in the UK through various channels in over 100 countries push for global support to save the children from the company allegedly causing unnecessary deaths to the children.

Day3 of Internet workshop for editors in Dar es Salaam
Day 3 of the workshop happened to be one of the busiest and well-enjoyed sessions that witnessed extensive coverage of Fact(s) Finding techniques.
Our instructor, Peik Johannson with long experience in international journalist and training consultancy from the Finnish Foundation for Media, Communication and Development and whose website is www.peik.fi led us throughout the session to make sure that every participant followed lessons.
Under the topic “How internet changed societies” we all learnt about the profound decentralization of information and the accomplishment of other duties like shopping and purchase of air or train tickets through the interment.
The fact that up-to-date information from anywhere around the world can be obtained from the internet, the world becomes a village whereby information is shared promptly.
The underlining focus of today’s lesson was “Think before acting”. It has stressed that one needs to know exactly what to look for before jumping to the internet. There should be a set of pre-mediated questions or fact to look for and of course more would be required in the course of searching information.
Practical work carried out in class on how to get quick answers for example the population of Egypt, the capital city of Burkina Fasso, (Ouagadougou), the capital of Laos (Vientiane, more about the government of Tanzania, the president of Honduras and the background information to his life and any other required information.

EDITOR'S WORKSHOP DAY 2
Day 2
Feb. 03, 2009
Journalism in the age of internet
The second day of this important training workshop has given all participants the real insight on the rapid changing journalism with more usage of internet facilities as one of the major sources of information.
In the morning we started the session by opening individual blogs and the trainer, Peik Johansson who is a journalist and Training consultant from Finland led us to a successful end of the lesson.
The lesson (blog address) for each of us was very important for the fact that it provided a page to post the brief report created the previous day regarding the accomplishments of the first day of the seminar for editors in Dar es Salaam .
The assignment that followed was going through a long speech by a famous American media tycoon, Rupert Mudorch he delivered to print media editors in USA in May last year.
His emphasis was on the need for the print media to continue creating specific online communication services where they could come up with good and ‘eye-catching’ substance/information to meet the expectation of the audience/readers.
A brief discussion that followed highlighted the points stressed in the speech basically on the rapid domination of online publications over the hard-copies of print media.
Internet has greatly improved the work of journalists who are now capable of searching for background information to give proper context of the content of their stories. With the help of internet it has become easy to accesses cross-cut information from various media sources i.e. print, electronic, radio and online publications.
