GLC Member President Joyce Banda Named One of Time's 100 Most Influential

This is originally posted on Time

Joyce Banda, Malawi’s first and Africa’s second female President, could not have come onto the stage at a better time, particularly since the African Union declared 2010 to 2020 African Women’s Decade. Together, she and I can talk about the situation in Africa and what can be done by all our countries, working together in strong partnership, to build bridges and democracies and get our institutions and economies strong again.

President Banda possesses the traits needed during this period of great challenges in Malawi’s, and Africa’s, history. Before her active career in politics, Joyce Banda established several nongovernmental and charitable foundations, all geared toward improving the lives of her compatriots, particularly women. Today Joyce and I have a collaborative program that focuses on improving the working conditions of market women. There have already been exchange visits between market women of our two countries.

President Banda is committed to using her position to improve the lives of women across the continent, not just in Malawi. She has great strength. I am delighted that I’m not alone in Africa anymore.

With havin so much written content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation?
My site has a lot of completely unique content I've either written myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any ways to help prevent content from being stolen? I'd certainly appreciate it.

I do trust all the concepts you've introduced in your post. They are very convincing and will definitely work. Still, the posts are too short for novices. May just you please prolong them a bit from subsequent time? Thank you for the post.

Nice post. I learn something new and challenging on sites I stumbleupon on a daily basis.
It's always helpful to read articles from other authors and use a little something from their sites.

Hmm it appears like your site ate my first comment
(it was super long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog.

I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I'm still new to everything. Do you have any tips and hints for beginner blog writers? I'd definitely appreciate it.
