The Gambia is to have two oil refineries according to Mr. Bruce H.Y. Gilfix,
CEO of Global Management Group. The project, which is expected to cost about
US $2.5 Billion, entails the construction of two refineries, one in the GBA
and the other in the provincies. According to the CEO of GMG, after making
several visits to The Gambia, his group is convinced that investing in The
Gambia is a wise move. He hailed President Jammeh's development projects
such as schools, roads and hospitals. He further explained that this venture
of their's would create tens of thousands of JObs for Gambians and bring in
much needed foreign exchange. Fuel shortage or power outage would soon be a
thing of the past, he was quoted as saying. Details later.

In another development, The Gambia is to receive US $27 million from the
worldbank over the next three years to help it fight poverty. Again, details
will be supplied later.



There is a time in the life of every problem when it is big enough to see,
yet small enough to solve.    -Mike- Levitt-
