Kenya a World Class Golfing Destination

14 02 2015
All India, 12th February 2015 : Golf is one competitive sport that is gaining traction in Kenya. The first golf course in the country was built in the 1900s by the British colonials. Kenya is famous for wildlife safaris, beautiful scenery and excellent white sand beaches, but also has developed as a major sporting hub in East Africa. There are over 42 Golf courses stretched across the country, at least twelve of which have hosted major tournaments and are considered to be of international standard.
The attraction of Kenya as both a golfing and tourist destination has been buoyed by its favourable climate which is a mixture of tropical and highland climate. The warm and sunny conditions make the country a great relaxation and sporting destination.
Kenya’s weather is ideal for golf all year round making it one of the world’s top golfing destinations.
Golf is undoubtedly one of the world’s best travelling sports. Golf offers the chance to relax and unwind in a natural environment while participating in a highly competitive and skilled game. Kenya is the best choice for the travellers who look for a wide range of golf courses, combined with world class standards and services.
The golf and country clubs have the best facilities and high quality services built on Kenya’s reputation for welcoming warmth. Most of the courses in Kenya have been designed using the natural landscape, which means that a round of golf in these world class golf courses is a nature walk in itself, with profusion of flora and fauna in and around the courses.
A variety of smaller courses offer unique geographical quirks for the connoisseur: from “Kenya’s only uphill course” on the slopes of Nakuru’s extinct Menengai volcano; to Mount Kenya Safari Club, where the Equator and a rich variety of wildlife cross the fairways; to one of the unlikeliest courses you’ll ever come across on the salt-encrusted shores of Lake Magadi.
Kenya’s golf courses stretch from the beautiful sun-baked beaches of the warm Indian ocean, to the spectacular Great Rift Valley, with its volcanic remnants and visible layers of the earth’s history in the making, to the green central highlands sporting Africa’s second highest mountain peak, to the lush and fertile tea country of the west. One of the most appealing features of golfing in Kenya is the variety found from course to course.
The capital city of Kenya, Nairobi is a modern city in the middle of hills, verdant forest and savannah plains. The combination of a modern cosmopolitan city and natural environs make Nairobi a perfect golfing destination. There are seven 18-hole courses including the historical Royal Nairobi Golf Club which came into existence in 1906, and the Muthaiga Golf Club which is home to the Kenya Open – A European PGA event.
The second highest peak in Africa, Mt. Kenya is home to one of the best golfing experiences in the world. This is where the prestigious Mt. Kenya Safari Club is located. The course at the club is a nine-hole golf course, which opens to an African jungle and sighting gazelles, monkeys, and giraffes while teeing is a common sight. It is the only place in the world where you can tee off in the northern hemisphere and putt out in the Southern as the club is not only built on lush green slopes of Mt. Kenya, but also directly on the equator.
A golfing holiday in Kenya would certainly be a memorable experience, where else can you get the opportunity to jump from the southern hemisphere and back again?
Mt. Kenya’s Safari Club gives the travellers a chance as the equator actually crosses the tennis court and golf course. If traditional are to be believed, a special occasion between the two hemispheres dictates to you long lasting happiness. This really sounds exciting so why not experience it yourself by taking up a golfing safari in Kenya.

Not to their lovers but to the one who proved their love by throwing acid on their faces.All these letters will be compiled in an e-book and it will be launched on 14th feb on ‘;Stop Acid Attacks';s Fb Page. One of the most significant reasons behind such attacks is one sided love. This book will not only compile letters by acid attack fighters but of some youngsters too on what do they think about love and what do they want to tell someone who has ever hurt them. We also invite you to join us for our first fundraising Tweetathon on coming Valentine';s Day- February 14, 2015.

We are looking forward to as many Social media influencer as possible to be part of the tweetathon. We look forward to trend #BlackRoses on February 14 to raise a strong voice in support of Acid Attack fighters. What is Stop Acid Attacks campaign?
Stop Acid Attacks is a people’s movement raising a voice to end Acid Attacks in India and elsewhere. SAA aims at sensitising the society about various aspects of Acid Attacks. The campaign firmly believes that Acid Attacks on women is largely due to presence of patriarchal structure in the society. Such structure gives moral background to commit the heinous crime of attacking someone with Acid and snatching the sense of “self” from them.
The campaign has been fighting a legal and administrative battle to regulate the sale of Acids in retail shops in India, which is illegally available as a cheaper substitute of toilet cleaner! SAA engages with the Indian Parliamentarians and global politicians in order to create a support group to advocate the cause and ensuring that the existing laws are implemented across the nation.
Currently 50 Acid Attack survivors are actively associated with the campaign, who have taken the role of Campaigners for the movement. Our campaigner Laxmi has also received the prestigious International Woman of Courage award from First Lady Michelle Obama. Our other campaigner Rupa has emerged as a fashion designer and is all set to open her boutique!
SAA is a volunteer driven movement, working under the Chhanv Foundation. The campaign sustains itself by crowd funding.
What is “Black Roses: in name of love”?
Most of the Acid Attacks in India are due to the one sided love of a man being rejected by a woman. Because the woman has rejected the proposal for love, the ‘;man'; attacks her to ensure that she does not become part of any other man';s life as well.
As Valentine';s Day- a day to celebrate love- is near, we have compiled letters of few Acid Attack survivors, addressed to the person who attacked them. This is first of its kind of compilation of letters. Apart from the letters we will also include few poem by the survivors and other supporters of the campaign.
Black Roses is also the name of our campaign. You can read more about the campaign here: http://www.stopacidattacks.org/2014/02/a-black-rose-in-protest-of-love.html
You can also watch a film made on our campaign made by Al Jazeera here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9be80CwpdIQ
Your support is important: Your participation in our Tweetathon as an ambassador of the cause to end Acid Attacks, will motivate not only the various volunteers and campaigners, but will also educate and inform larger crowd in the society. Your participation will ensure that the cause reaches out to many people who are still not aware of the ongoing struggle to end violence against women.
Looking forward to your response.!!
Regards,
Team SAA




Arvind the DELHI Eighth CM

14 02 2015
No women in Delhi Cabinet.
Arvind the DELHI Eighth CM has projected himself with colossal sum of money gathered with fair and unfair means, the most  honest political leader in offing, the most misrepresenting persona who has been put on litmus test by his various mentors publicly denouncing his leadership, but the Delhi citizen big chunk of which comes  from lower strata has put their aspirations on new cadre of drama-nautanki politicians  their vision smarlt decorated with 70 promises along with frugal fiscal at their disposal . Freebees but no work culture when most of our government machinery fail to deliver in ordinary course people of Delhi  watch new rulers of its kind  with amuse, wait for  the  curtain raise ceremony at Ramlila Ground. So watch for real Ramlila or Krishna Lila to follow suit.
Many political experts believe that the nation is still floating on its wing as troll in water but if it has to achieve the heights it must have sophisticated engine to which we lack the meritocracy is still to be now where as the new entrepreneurs find it many hoops to tread.Most of the rulers get into excessive enjoy rather than workaholic culture so the remedy lies in technocrats who understands the tech political science , we don’t need only vertical educated people but horizontally educated people to create synergy,innovation and convergence. Vertical educated can be classical eloquent leader but he fails to convert opportunity into success. Still as citizen of Delhi our good wishes to new leaders but the road of responsibilities are humongous  starting from providing and fixing professional people in  Food for all, Education, Health, Finance Government machinery, Employment for all , social security to senior citizen, excellent  people transport system, houses, roads and drain connected to water harvesting, on environment tress plantations and on the top of it the maintenance part of the exiting structure and reinventing its workers and labour class to motivate them to work with pride. To fulfill the abovesaid promises we need extra smart professionals and people of integrity to monitor the state. But when we have built the foundation on half truth shall we succeed is trillion dollar Q ?
Arvind Kejriwal to be sworn in as CM of Delhi today; Manish Sisodia and five others to also take oath as ministers.Arvind Kejriwal will take over as Chief Minister of Delhi today.

Six other Aam Aadmi Party leaders – Manish Sisodia, Asim Ahmed Khan, Sandeep Kumar, Satyendar Jain, Gopal Rai and Jitender Singh Tomar will also be sworn-in as ministers.
President Pranab Mukherjee Friday night appointed Mr Kejriwal as Chief Minister of Delhi with effect from the date he is sworn-in. A Home Ministry statement said, the President also signed an order to revoke Central rule in Delhi from today. AAP sources said, Mr Kejriwal is expected to keep the key portfolios of Home, Power and Finance with himself, while giving Education, PWD and Urban Development to his confidante Manish Sisodia, who will also be the Deputy Chief Minister.

Gopal Rai, a senior party leader and Political Affairs Committee member, is tipped be to the next Transport and Labour Minister.

In the recent Delhi Assembly elections, AAP staged a historic victory sweeping 67 of the 70 seats leaving BJP with only 3 seats. This will be Mr Kejriwal’s second term as Delhi Chief Minister. He had resigned in February last year after running a 49-day government with the support of Congress.

Duterte proposes another UN August 21, 2016 Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte railed against the United Nations today after it called for an end to the wave of killings unleashed by his war on drugs, saying he might leave the organisation. Duterte also said the Philippines will invite China and African nations to form another global organisation in place of United Nations, as world body is not doing enough to address hunger and terrorism. There appears to be human rights working for terrorist and mafia in third world to keep their states in dire state. Two UN human rights experts last week urged Manila to stop the extra-judicial executions and killings that have escalated since Duterte won the Presidency. About 900 suspected drug traffickers have been killed since he came to power after winning the election on May 9.
