#Namibia _ La educación superior, tanto terciaria como universitaria, será gratuita en todo el país desde el ciclo académico del 2026. “Hemos escuchado sus clamores”, expresó la presidenta Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah durante el Discurso anual sobre el Estado de la Nación. Hasta hoy, la gratuidad era exclusiva de las escuelas primarias y secundarias.

Same subject, other messenger. Still not American but this time from India. Less enthousiastic, less AI. But no real difference.

"Mar 27, 2025
Namibia has announced a major visa policy change, ending its long-standing visa-free entry for U.S. travellers. Starting April 1, American visitors must apply for a visa online in advance, though visas on arrival will still be available at key entry points. The move, which was approved last May, is backed by Namibia’s first female president, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah. It responds to the U.S. and other Western nations denying visa-free entry to Namibians. It also highlights growing African frustration over strict U.S. visa policies. While some applaud this stand for reciprocity, others worry it may impact tourism. Despite concerns, officials remain confident in Namibia’s appeal, framing the decision as a bold statement on fairness, diplomacy, and Africa’s role in global travel. Watch to know more."

This is not [just] about sticking it up to #Trump. Or passports. Although it's very well that this is done by a strong African woman [ #TheDrumph can't both not stand as he can't understand it 🤣 🤣 😜]
It's far more about reclaiming 'face'. This is about colonial privileges thrown back. This is about #AfricanDignity. It is about the habit of walking around as king in another mans land.
As well as it is about exploiting the AfricanResources and claiming that back.

>> #Germany hasn’t paid reparations for its genocide in #Namibia. Descendants of the victims want a seat at the table. Now, a green hydrogen megaproject risks burying the past.

>> Shark Island … a former concentration camp that is also a tourist campsite, popular especially with German and South African visitors. Soon, it may also become the hub of a multibillion-euro energy project. Backed by the German company Enertrag SE, the Hyphen initiative aims to harness the region’s sun and wind to produce “green hydrogen” – a climate-neutral fuel destined for economies in the Global North.

>> The German government sees Hyphen as a strategic investment. For descendants like Fredericks, it threatens to erase what little remains of Shark Island’s memory.
