Challenges With Manufacturing In Uganda
มุมมอง 1.4K6 ปีที่แล้ว
Manufacturing in Africa isn't lagging because money. The challenges are far more nuanced. Looking at only capital or labor is too simplistic. We have to look into the details and get our hands dirty (literally) if we are serious about creating jobs in Uganda and Africa.

How much is the capital to set up the factory?
I'm lather bag manufacturer form India
How has it been progressing?
Hello are u sellin white blue
I largely disagree with the critics about the project. I was a kid in school when the government of my country (Brazil) actually made a deal with OLPC initiative and got some of these devices. I was very curious but poor, couldn't afford a computer and such thing actually helped a lot of kids like me then. I speak english thanks to computers and internet. Later we (brazilians, not the kids) started producing our own cheap computers in Brazil and the thing got interesting. It's 2023 and I recently discovered that some of the schools in here used these laptops in classes during the COVID pandemic. Even the OLPC XO-1. I ended up studying computer engineering and despite this whole project not achieving it's goals, I really think it pushed some bounderies when we see computer technology nowadays.

But they have a bigger modern factory Already
Hi, I'm looking for an African handbag manufacturer.
Few things to point out. First of all kids are the best when it comes to picking up a new piece of technology since their brain is still developing so giving a kid a computer is not a bad idea. I learned so much more exploring my Windows 98 system as a child than I ever did in class. 2nd the computer is build so that a child can read the python programming to understand how it is built. A child that knows how to code can bring his entire family out of poverty. May or may not need an instructor.
How can I connect with you to supply to me ??
Nice work .But I'm trying to acquire a good leather supplier locally to sustain my rather tiny backyard workshop . Congs sir .
Hey, is this factory still up and running? I’ve been searching for African purse factories to collaborate with.
Go bro your doing great 👍
next time you came kenya let me know
I think the marketing could have been better. Olpc sounds like a poor person's laptop, yet if it was given a name like a green alien laptop, that is cooler. It is setup in a way that makes kids want to use it like a more modern laptop but if they had stripped the os down a bit more, not too much but maybe make it boot a slimmer os not Linux like an 8bit computer instantly. Have the networking and browser there and have BASIC immediately available. Make it a simple computer for children to use computers.
Your videos are horrible. No wonder you do have not so many views.😯
I cannot believe all the hate in the comments the ignorance is astounding
Very interesting. Thank you.
I'm from Uruguay, the first country in Latam that gave them. We have an excellent public healthcare sytem like SNIS and FONASA. Our education is public too. This program gives a laptop to every kid that studies. This encourages the kid to study and prepares them to this always evolving tec word
Hi James . I am thinking to invest in Uganda . I have met some very good guy and we are planning to invest this money in poultry farm . He already has the farm and I am thinking to invest in his farm to make it a bit bigger and wider scale . Do u advice me to take such a step . And what are the legal steps I need to take into consideration to protect my contribution in the investment ? It’s not going to be a big amount of money though $10k . Do u think I should move and live in Uganda to in turn to follow up with the investment? With that I have to leave my 9 to 5 job . A bit confused .
i remember these ads
The problem whit the OLPC is that it is an OLPC. The companies do not have an interest in investing in a project that can decrease their revenues, that's why solar projects or other self-sufficient projects do not grow up. You can see it nowadays from those tesla cars costing so expensive even though they are called "green" alternatives.
Niceness
An amazing story that awaits success
I’m from Uganda. Thanks for the good work James^^ You’re an angel!!
Hi, James, I just read your post of "Is Jesus Really Anti-Capitalist?". Very interesting conversation. God bless your business!
Hello i would like to contact you
Hi James, I didnt even know leather bags were made in Uganda. Happy to learn about Venture and would like to support the business. Kindly let me know how to.
Billion Dollar Income Potential in Ruvol I have invented a Board Game [still unpublished] that is guaranteed to be far more challenging and exciting to play than CHESS. I called it “RUVOL.” Over time, Ruvol will surpass chess as the “Number One Board Game in the World.” Why am I so sure about this? Because I am an avid chess player myself. I found chess to be so repetitive that any clever player could easily master the moves to a point they could even play against opponents blindfolded. It is for this reason I invented a game where every game is always a new challenge and exciting to play. Since Ruvol is yet “unpublished,” I am extra careful in fully disclosing how it is exactly played, lest it might be “plagiarized.” The “BEST PREVIEW” I can give, more than enough to appreciate how the game is played, is as follows: 1. Ruvol is almost somewhat played like chess. [I invented Ruvol primarily to give chess a direct “apple-to-apple” competition.] 2. Like chess, Ruvol is a board game for two players. 3. If the chess board is square in shape containing 64 squares in all, the Ruvol board is rectangular with more number of squares in it. 4. If each chess player has 16 pieces, each Ruvol player has equal number of pieces as well. 5. If each type of chess piece moves in a distinct way, the Ruvol types of pieces move in distinct ways, too. 6. If to win the chess game requires tactical skills or strategic thinking, the more the Ruvol requires of it. 7. If the way to win chess is to checkmate the opponent’s king, the way to win Ruvol is entirely different but far more exciting and challenging. In my Google search, I learned there are around 800 million chess players in the world. These 800 million players comprise the “Total Potential Buyers” of Ruvol across the globe. At an average profit of just US$5 per set, the “Global Income Potential” of Ruvol then is US$4 billion. Assuming only 1% of it will buy each year, the annual global potential sale is US$40M. I AM SELLING MY COPYRIGHT TO RUVOL. For the reason that I don’t have enough money to produce, distribute, and market Ruvol on a global scale, I find it “wiser” to simply sell my copyright. If you are interested to buy my copyright, email me your BEST PRICE OFFER-[the copyright going to one with the highest reasonable bid]. Or if you know someone willing to buy my copyright, you are entitled to a 10% commission. On the other hand, if you have a “much better option” in mind than what I am proposing here, don’t hesitate to let me know. Thanks and God bless.

Computers can never replace good teachers and books. I figured including laptops in class would, if nothing else, make kids a little bit more excited about school.

I remember seeing this as a teenager when it was being developed and thinking that in a matter of weeks after distribution each of these laptops would be jammed full of games, porn and malware to the point of being completely unusable. Going by the comments on other videos on the subject, looks like I was right about the games at least.
Beautiful womens!
