LAKE BASIN MALL-KISUMU CITY
Strategically located at the junction of the Northern Bypass and the Kisumu-Kakamega highway, The Lake Basin Mall is a first of its kind in Kisumu - it is set to revolutionise the Shopping experience in the fast developing Kisumu City.
The architecture of the mall takes on a contemporary and futuristic form with a sail like curving roof - an apt metaphor for the Lake City! Designed to international standards, materials, finishes and colours have been carefully chosen to bring the world to Kisumu. Internally the shop fronts feature frameless glass and the arcade incorporates an atrium that links all the five floors of the mall maximising the natural lighting and ventilation to the arcade and the shops.
The mall shall incorporate four state of the art escalators and two stunning panoramic lifts linking all levels making vertical movement an experience by itself.
Designed to be the destination place in Kisumu the mall boasts of approximately 27,000 square metres of built up space and over 300 car parkings on two levels. The mall accommodates a 60,000 square feet anchor tenant space, a modern food court that will host the big restaurant names in the country, a children’s play area. It is intended that the mall will introduce international retails chains to Kisumu. The Basin Mall promises to be every shopper’s dream come true!

German Support to Fishing in Lake Victoria
July 11th
Today, Kenya,
Israel and Germany signed a trilateral agreement aimed at protecting
Lake Victoria by supporting fish farmers and creating alternative ways
of fishing.
At the
signing ceremony, Ambassador Peschke used the Swahili proverb “It is
better to give a man a fishing–rod than to give him a fish”, to
underline the importance of the project of spreading knowledge about
sustainable aquaculture to improve livelihoods of fishermen.
The
project aims at sustaining the fish population in Lake Victoria by
supporting aquaculture instead of conventional fishing. Germany and
Israel already supported an aquaculture experimental and training unit
at RIAT College in Kisumu, together with a borehole and water supply
system for the college. In a second phase, the trilateral cooperation
will support extension services of the county governments, fish farmers
and private sector in Bungoma, Kakamega and Siaya.
So
far, the trilateral cooperation has reached almost 8.000 farmers
providing hands-on training in the field of aquaculture. The approach
does not only create jobs, but also provides fish by using fish ponds
instead of catching fish from the Lake Victoria.
During
government negotiations between Germany and Kenya in December 2013,
Germany committed new funds amounting to EUR 9.4 million for technical
cooperation in the agricultural sector. The project supporting fishing
industries at Lake Victoria is part of this commitment.

The cooperating partners include Kenya’s Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries (MoALF), the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs through MASHAV – Israel’s Agency for International Development Cooperation, and the German Cooperation Implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH.The first phase of the trilateral agreement was signed in Kisumu, Kenya, on August 2012, in the presence of the Prime Minister of Kenya, H.E. Raila Amolo Odinga. It stated two main cooperation areas aiming at the improvement of the ecosystem of Lake Victoria, based on the needs of the region and the respective comparative advantages of the partners: the promotion of tilapia fish farming as a business with an emphasis on “pro-poor” action by supporting capacity-building activities for establishing tilapia aquaculture; and a contribution to the improvement of wastewater management around Lake Victoria.Within this framework, and based on the successful implementation of Phase I, the Parties declared their willingness to continue their joint trilateral cooperation and extend it for an additional 3 years.
The MOU was signed in Nairobi on July 11th , in the presence of H.E. Nderitu Gachagua, Coordinator of the agriculture Committee, Council of Governors, Government of Kenya; H.E. Andreas Peschke, Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany to Kenya; and H.E Gil Haskel Ambassador of the State of Israel to Kenya.source: http://embassies.gov.il/nairobi/NewsAndEvents/Pages/Israel-Kenya-Germany-Cooperation-in-Lake-Victoria.aspx
