The South Korean government has made available to Ghana a multi-billion cedi housing project that will roll out 200, 000 housing units over a five year period, beginning April 2010.
The deal will also lead to the construction of 300 executive-type units to supplement the state's obligation towards high ranking government officials including ministers of state, Members of Parliament and in support of protocol duties.
Mr. Albert Abongo, Minister for Water Resources, Works and Housing who disclosed this information to newsmen in Accra on his way to Seoul, said the agreement will lead to the building of 40, 000 units each year over the five year period.
This, he explained, will enable the government reduce by a fifth, a crippling national housing deficit pegged at one million units.Mr. Abongo said the project will give the housing industry a "facelift",
with the introduction of hi-tech Korean technology as well as providing direct employment to thousands of Ghanaians.
He said under the arrangement, the HFC Bank, Ghana's leading public mortgage lender, will play a key role in roping in the private sector in conjunction with STX Engineering and Construction Ghana Limited, a Ghanaian-Korea Consortium, which will do the actual construction.
The STX Company, Mr. Abongo explained, will do the construction on the basis of a turn-key module, whereupon the company designs and finance the project.
The government, he said, has a 45 per cent stake in the project which will be financed with an undisclosed package from the Korean government under an off-taker agreement.
To conclude what bodes to be a major leap for Ghana's real estate industry, the Minister is already in Seoul, at the head of a 14 member delegation to conclude the deal.
On the delegation is Mr. David Tetteh Assumeng, Member of Parliament for Shai-Osudoku, and Chairman, Parliamentary Select Committee on Water Resources, Works and Housing as well as Ms Cecilia Abena Dapaah, ranking member on the committee.
Mr. Abongo said the Seoul meeting will hammer out the details of the project but was hopeful that it would help give the Ghanaian real estate industry a major boost.
He said the South Korean government is determined to broaden its relationship with Ghana in several sectors such as housing, water, railways and energy.
Such a collaboration, he explained will lead to the rehabilitation of the Techiman and Wa water systems.
He said in a show of Korean determination for the housing project, they are to pay a reciprocal visit to Ghana four days after the return of his delegation so as to enable both cabinet and Parliament deal expeditiously with the agreement for construction to start in earnest.

What can you do to help us ?
Start with contacting Pan-Afrikanist organizations like BLACK
STAR MEDIA (Modelled after Marcus Garveys Vision For Afrika) : They are at
[ www.libradio.net ]. The CEO of BLACK STAR MEDIA is Keidi-Obi
Awadu. He has been on the frontline fighting for our freedom for
over 30 years.
It's Not A Question Of Other Learned Societies.
It's The INFERIORITY COMPLEX WE HAVE TO SHED
St. Paul In A Letter To The Christians In Rome Said :
" For I say, through the grace given to me, to every man that is
among you, NOT TO THINK OF HIMSELF MORE HIGHLY Than
He Ought To Think; but to think soberly, according AS GOD HAS
D EALT TO EVERY MAN THE MEASURE OF FAITH .
We All Should Think Highly Of Ourselves, Keeping In Our Mind
That God Gave Us Dominion Over The Earth
, NOT EACH OTHER. !!!!!!!!
So let's please help us to return to our Mama Afrika as Israel
under Moses escaped their exile !!!!!!!
MAMA AFRIKA YOUR CHILDREN WANT TO COME HOME !!!!!!!

- Life Is a Game. Have Fun. [ Luke 18:17 / Isaiah 11:6 ] :
IS AFRIKA FOR SALE ?
1) Points Of Interest :
A) Ive heard that one Afrikan country made a 99-year deal with an
Asian country to lease a part of their land.
B) China has given The Ghana Technology University College a
$70 Million Dollar Memorandum ( ? Promissory Note ) ..Is This A
Bribe Of Sorts ..Is Afrika For Sale ?
2) How can anyone make a deal for the next generation ?
3) What can we do about it ?
4) Organize and get those crooks out of office or any position of
power.
5) Pray to God For insight and divine intervention.
6) Afrika Is being targeted by many who are not respecting Afrika.
7) We must stop selling ourselves and respect ourselves, our
families and God.
8) AFRIKA IS BEING FINANCIALLY & SPIRITUALLY GANG-RAPED
By The ROBBERS OF OUR PEOPLE !!!!!!!
But NEWS OUT OF THE EAST (CHINA?) AND OUT OF THE
NORTH ( RUSSIA ?) shall trouble him: therefore he shall go
forward with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many
Revelations 16:12
And the 6th angel poured out his vial upon the great river
Euphrates; and the water of it was dried up, that the way of the
KINGS OF THE EAST might be prepared.
[Daniel 11:14 ]]
And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of
the south(AMERICA / BABYLON ): ALSO the ROBBERS OF OUR
PEOPLE shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; BUT
THEY SHALL FALL !
AFRIKA IS THE LATEST TARGET OF THE WHORE OF BABYLON :
The Dazzling Lights Of Glamour Are Shining On A Country That Is
Being Attacked On
Multiple Levels . What Is Being Done To Afrika ( By Deception )
Has Already Been Done In America And Other American-
Influence Countries.
Here Is A Brief Summary Of Some of The Attacks On Afrika :
1) Islamic Slavery going back to around 700 A.D to the present
2) European Slavery around 1440 A.D. 1800s
3) American Slavery around 1660 1963
4) American Disguised Slavery via different names :
a) So-called former slaves forced to work for their so-called
former masters Many were lynched [ Read Ida B. Wells The Red
Record & 100 Years Of Lynching ( By Ralph Ginzburg)
b) The Convict Lease System ( Late 1800s ) forced many
Black Men To Work In Camps Called Prisons (Disguised As State
Institutions), But Actually Owned By The Richest Former Slave
Owners [ See Movies Like Sounder starring Kevin Hooks &
Life (A So-called Comedy Starring Eddie Murphy & Martin
Lawrence]
c) The Current Criminal Justice System Has Used Unjust
Laws To Target Blacks (Crack vs. Cocaine) And The Poor
Whites Too (Meth & Crystal)
d) Television was introduced to most of America and by the
1960s it had replaced Radio as the leading Family entertainment.
e) Media Today is being Used To Change Afrika into America :
THE WHORE OF BabyLON !!!
