The African Union (AU) is a continental body consisting of the 55 member states that make up the countries of the African Continent. It was officially launched in 2002 as a successor to the Organisation of African Unity (OAU, 1963-1999). History: In May 1963, 32 Heads of independent African States met in Addis Ababa Ethiopia to sign the Charter creating Africa`s first post-independence continental institution, The Organisation of African Unity (OAU). The OAU was the manifestation of the pan-African vision for an Africa that was united, free and in control of its own destiny and this was solemnised in the OAU Charter in which the founding fathers recognised that freedom, equality, justice and dignity were essential objectives for the achievement of the legitimate aspirations of the African peoples and that there was a need to promote understanding among Africa`s peoples and foster cooperation among African states in response to the aspirations of Africans for brother-hood and solidarity, in a larger unity transcending ethnic and national Differences. The guiding philosophy was that of Pan-Africanism which centred on African socialism and promoted African unity, the communal characteristic and practices of African communities, and a drive to embrace Africa`s culture and common heritage. Read the speeches from the 1st OAU Summit in 1963 The main objectives of the OAU were to rid the continent of the remaining vestiges of colonisation and apartheid; to promote unity and solidarity amongst African States; to coordinate and intensify cooperation for development; to safeguard the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Member States and to promote international cooperation. The OAU Charter spelled out the purpose of the Organisation namely: To promote the unity and solidarity of the African States; To coordinate and intensify their cooperation and efforts to achieve a better life for the pe

The surprisingly cutthroat race to build the world`s fastest elevators SHANGHAI -Elevator rides are not usually worth documenting. But when you step into the elevator at Shanghai Tower, people often pull out their cameras. As the doors close, a screen at the elevator`s front lights up to show you the car`s location as it rises toward the building`s newly opened observation deck. A neatly dressed attendant informs passengers that the elevator has now reached a top speed of 18 meters per second, approximately 40 mph. [This is really fast," one passenger said during a recent packed ride up the tower. It is, in fact, the fastest elevator in the world. At a ceremony in Tokyo in early December, the Shanghai Tower elevators and the company that made them, Mitsubishi Electric, were officially awarded the title by Guinness World Records. Yet many passengers may not even experience the top speed. To do so, you have to travel in a souped-up elevator car with a Mitsubishi technician who can flick a switch, making the speedometer on the screen turn red: 20.5 meters per second (45.8 mph). Chi

Chinese Elevator Market Reaching Peak The Chinese elevator market has dominated the international elevator industry for more than 20 years. Large construction projects competing for the title of China`s tallest building have raced to ever greater heights. Currently, two-thirds of new elevator construction occurs in China. Slumping Chinese Elevator Market However, all of that may be changing. China`s rapid construction phase may have reached it`s peak. Indeed, industry experts predict that the Chinese elevator market will decline, after which it may stabilize. According to Bloomberg Intelligence analysts, Johnson Imode and Mustafa Okur, major elevator manufacturers will have to grapple with the slumping Chinese market. Consequently, elevator manufacturers in the country will need to consolidate in order to accommodate the lessened demand. Also, they may be looking to other markets or advancing technology to compensate for reduced revenue. Bloomberg`s 2015 article titled The Wor
