My dear fellow exporters,
Friends, the Government has announced that the Finance Ministry is working with the Commerce &Industry to finalize on the notification with regard to the exemption of service tax levied on the post-production services for exports, as was announced by the Hon’ble Commerce & Industry Minister onApril 19th while presenting the Annual Supplement to the Foreign Trade Policy for the current year. Whilethis is, indeed, a relief from the uncertainty that had gripped the exporting community, the Council hasexpressed to the Commerce Minister the need to ensure that all the service tax levied on all services forpost-production export of goods is included for exemption in the notification that will be announced by theFinance Ministry.
The Council has also requested for a meeting the Prime Minister where it will make a presentation on theproblems facing the engineering exporting community that has led to the stoppage of shipments bymany of our fellow member exporters. This apart, the Council has also taken up a number of anomaliesthat have cropped up in the Annual Supplement to the FTP for the current year in the Trade Facilitationmeeting with the DGFT. We have also submitted a Concept Note to the Competition Commission ofIndia, on their request, on the need for strengthening the Shipping Corporation of India as also the possiblerole of a Shipping Regulator to make freight rates competitive and user friendly.
The Council has also lined up a series of promotional events abroad and will hold its trademark IndianEngineering Exhibition-INDEE in Johannesburg from October 23 to 26, 2007. The Council will also participatein GIFA-NEWCAST in Düsseldorf, Germany from June 12 to 16, 2007 and this will give further exposureto our member exporters to meet existing as well as new buyers and promote their goods in majormarkets of the world. The success of these events lie solely on your participation and it is hoped that youall will continue to make these promotional events a grand success as in the past. I may add that at therecent Hannover Fair held in mid-April 2007, a number of our member exporters benefited immenselyand some exporters have booked good orders.
While the current economic scenario in the country is not terribly conducive for exports, the Councilbelieves that such challenging times are a critical period for its members who have to find legitimateinnovative ways of doing business, cutting costs and staying competitive in world markets. The Councilwill always continue to push for all the legitimate demands of the exporters and the need for creating alevel playing field both internally as well as externally. Issues pertaining to an adverse exchange rate,high cost of export credit and high prices of raw material are essential elements of our competitivenessand the Council will continue to press these issues with the powers that be ad nauseum, till remedialaction is taken.
Yours sincerely,
(RAKESH SHAH)

South Africa is the economic powerhouse of Africa with a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) four times that of its Southern
African neighbours and comprising around 25% of the entire continent's GDP. The country leads the continent in industrial
output (40% of the total output) and mineral production (45%) and generates most of Africa's electricity (over 50%). Its major
strengths include its physical and economic infrastructure, natural mineral and metal resources, a growing manufacturing
sector, strong growth potential in the tourism, high value-added manufacturing and service industries. The financial and
industrial sectors are concentrated in Gauteng Province which on its on accounts for over 30% of the country (GDP).
South African economy has been showing an upward trend since September-1999 and the annual economic growth rate
from September-1999 through June-2005 has averaged at 3.5%. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was running at an

Ethiopia
Power Sector
To meet the rapidly rising demand for electricity, Ethiopian Electric Power Corporation (EEPCO) plans a massive boost
to power generation capacity in the next five years, from about 790 MW to 3,500–4,000 MW, mainly through the construction
of new hydroelectric dams, supplemented by thermal and geothermal sources. EEPCO’s five-year plan is based on nine
key projects, which are in varying stages of development. The most advanced are the Gilgel Gibe II Dam (430 MW),
which is being built by M/s. Salini of Italy with funding from the Italian government, and the Tekeze Dam (300 MW), which
is being built by M/s. Sinohydro of China and local partners; both are due to come on-stream by 2009. In other developments,
Salini won a contract in 2005 to build the Beles Dam (435 MW), costing US$ 628 m, and another contract in 2006 to
build the massive Gilgel Gibe III (1,870 MW), costing US$ 2 billion, which is planned to be the largest plant in the country
when it comes on-stream in 2011. Looking further ahead, Ethiopia has the potential to generate up to 45,000 MW as
hydropower, which is being described as Ethiopia’s “white oil”. In line with the ongoing rise in power generation capacity,
Ethiopia is undertaking a massive expansion in the power distribution network under the government’s Universal
Electrification Access Programme (UEAP). The World Bank proposes funding of US$ 100 m for the first phase of the
UEAP in 2005, with the remaining US$ 77 m coming from the government. The full UEAP has a more ambitious aim
of raising electricity network coverage to 50% of the country within ten years, at a cost of US$ 1.3 billion, although funding
is not yet in place.
