     孔戴总统之赠书

去年刚当选联任的几内亚总统孔戴，最近出版「非洲大陆愿景 」今天特托友人帯回二本他亲笔签名之大作， 细读之后， 对孔戴总统一生对国家之奉献 深深感动。

几内亚位於非洲西部， 去年在推动修宪让孔戴总统得以寻求第三任期， 几经反对势力之反对， 终于通过， 他在去年十月十八日的全民投票中以百分之五十九点四九获胜， 开啟他另外六年的任期。

这个西非国家人口一千七百万人， 有地质奇迹之称， 铝矾土藏量四百亿吨 ，位居世界第一，沿海大陆架已发现石油， 东南部有大片原始森林，盛產红木黑檀木， 由于交通不便， 许多资源尚待开发。

為了加强国家建设， 政府及私人企业特别於二月二十四日至二十七日举行大型招商大会 ，欢迎全球企业界人士在缐上或实地参与会议。

总统在欢迎词中表示政府将保证在安全互利之基础上达到投资者获利之目的。

添為几内亚驻休斯敦名誉总领事 ，我们也特别邀请大家参加此一盛会 ，不要失去了到非洲投资的大好机会。

President Condé’s    New Book

Today I received two copies of the President of Guinea’s new book, “A Vision For Africa.”

President Alpha Condé spent his whole life in a political battle for democracy during which he underwent exile and imprisonment. He is the first democratically elected president in Guinea since 2010. In power, he has promised to develop the country. As a university professor, he became a statesman and continued his long journey in service to his country.

Guinea is a country in West Africa bordered on the west by the Atlantic Ocean. Natural resources are plentiful. In addition to its hydroelectric potential, the country possesses a large portion of the world’s bauxite and significant amounts of iron, gold and diamonds.

To serve the people who want to invest in Guinea, The First Guinea Investment Forum will be held on Feb. 24 to 27. This is the first transactional platform for key investment actors. The Guinea government as well as national, regional and international actors will join the event.

The priority of investments including Agriculture, Energy, Infrastructure, Mining and the digital economy will be discussed.

As President Condé said in his welcome message, “I give you the reassurance of my government in the security and profitability of your investments within the framework of a win-win partnership.”

As Honorary Consul of Guinea In Houston, I am inviting you and your friends to join this forum to explore the opportunities in the Republic of Guinea.
