Sight-seeing of the peaceful, lovely, enchanting big city of Dar as
Salaam that harbours the enjoyable Indian Ocean, Kunduchi beach.
A few of us who used modest means of transport managed to delightfully
navigate East African cities and boarders. We experienced different
weather conditions and stop overs, despite the journey being hectic, it
was memorable. Thanks to the amazing transport team headed by Ken
Wabuteya and Godfrey Busingye.
Some of the notes carried from the message shared by outstanding
speakers that graced our conference at Julius Nyerere Conference
centre were;
Fatima Ali Muhammed (mentorship speaker- GHANA) she appreciated
Rotary for the amazing selfless change and difference we have brought
to our communities. She encouraged us to be proud of the brand and
improve on its awareness to the public through our social media platforms,
websites and uniform attire.
Mustapha Rahma (9 years-student Tanzania) He equated real life
experiences to the Rotary four way test; He raised concern that most of
the time we spend many hours on our phones and our computers at work.
He also raised some questions and points for us to think about;
Is it the truth? Do you spend the
right time on social media platforms
bearing in mind other activities of
the day?
Is it fair to all concerned? The time
accorded to our phones and social
media platforms is it fair to the time
provided to other people we stay
with and our academics?
Will it bring goodwill and better
friendship? We need to utilise
the social media platforms to
create
developmental
healthy
relationships that help us better our
lives.
Will it beneficial to all concerned?
The time we spend on our phones
we to we utilise it to economically
socially help each other example
we can use these platforms create
awareness of our Rotary clubs
businesses and many others. Major
aspect help each other be better.
I appreciate the team that worked
tirelessly to put the event together
hence a success.
See you at the 95th DCA in Mbarara
