Ban Ki-moon has continued to pass out money. He was in Tanzania, a Security Council member, last week and offered US$18m for ICT, according to Tanzania News:
Delivering his speech at the University Dar es Salaam at the weekend, the visiting Korean Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Ban Ki-moon, said his country has earmarked a total of US Dollars 18 million for supporting development of ICT at the UDSM College of Engineering and Technology and vocational training institutions.
This appears to be Ban’s modus operandi. He flies in, offers foreign aid, and gets collects support. This is what he did in Uzbekistan also. offered a similar proposal to Uzbekistan which subsequently offered its endorsement. And he offered nuclear technology to Indonesia.

[...] Of course, Ghana is a Security Council member. We have reported before here, here, and here on Ban's campaign trips. By our estimates, Ban has promised $48 million in foreign aid to Uzbekistan ($30 million), Tanzania ($18 million), and promises for other exchanges with other countries. This is the second promise of foreign aid to an African Security Council member. [...]

[...] So what countries will receive this money? We know some. $18m was promised to Tanzania, a UNSC member. We know that more was promised to Ghana, another UNSC member. We have heard that substantial aid has been offered to other countries, but we have not been able to document this. [...]

[...] Then the article discusses Tanzania. This is one of the clearest cases that we have discussed: One fortunate recipient was Tanzania, which currently has a seat on the Security Council. When Mr Ban arrived in May he pledged $18 million for an educational programme and also promised to carry out a road and bridge project in western Tanzania. Between 1991 and 2003 South Korean grants to Tanzania totalled $4.7 million. Seoul’s generosity seems to have worked. Yesterday Elly Matango, the Tanzanian Ambassador to Tokyo and Seoul, said that his Government had decided to support Mr Ban [...]

Well, Bon has done his choice. The world know what role has been played by Tanzania as a country in Africa and in particular in the libaration struggle. I full support Bans’ choice and knowing Dr. Asha Rose as my former lecturer at the Univeristy of Dar es salaam and at her capacity she can deliver. Thus why even President Kikwete of the United Republic of Tanzania put trust on her to map out Tanzania around the global. What is wrong Tanzania been given this opportunity? We need individual who will change the image of the UN particularly at this time when there are all signs that super powers such as America and Britain are trying to overshadow its mandate.

I just learned that some people are questioning your appointment for no good reason at all. Dr. Asha Migiro Congratulations! I know how strongly you are and trust President Kikwete has on you. I know how long you have worked on developing issues in Africa and around the workld. You are a good example of how commitment and hard work pay off.
This honor indicates a promising future for capable people from less developing countries. I believe now we are at good hands and your new position represent Tanzania and its contribution.I wish you the very best and we are here to help on environmental issues with one idea in mind Think Global Act Local for Mutual Success…Same Vision

The world supported Mr Ban and endorsed his position as Secretary General of the UN. Mr Ban has all the authority and mandate to choose his liutenants, whom I believe, he has the confidence will deliver. By appointing Dr Asha Rose Migiro as DSG, he made an excellent choice. Dr Migiro is a respected and capable person and I believe she has all the potential to bring about the changes in the UN that wil make the world a safer place for all of us. Lets give our support to Mr Ban and Dr Migiro instead of looking for a smoking gun! Tanzanians, and I am sure for the rest of the developing world, the appointment of Dr Migiro was appropriate and she deserves our support for the tasks ahead.

South Koreans are very slippery people. I don’t quite understand why an qualified ASIAN woman was not selected! I’m sick of the corrupted racist tradition at the UN!
