Stage 1 of river formation involves vertical erosion as potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Large sediments like boulders are deposited due to low energy levels.
Stage 2 sees increased velocity and lateral erosion as the river gains kinetic energy. Smaller sediments result from attrition in the water allowing more material to be carried downstream.
Stage 3 has high kinetic energy but lower turbulence, so only small particles like silt and sand are deposited on the floodplain during flooding.

Su capital es Dodoma y su presidente actual es Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete. Tanzania forma una meseta de unos 1.000 metros de altitud que se extiende hasta los lagos Malaui y Tanganica.
Natural and cultural factors create disparities between tourist and non-tourist areas in Tanzania. Areas with natural attractions like beaches, wildlife, and mountains see more investment and jobs in tourism. This benefits local economies through park fees, purchases of goods and services, and tertiary jobs. The government also invests more in infrastructure like roads and electricity in tourist regions to make visits more enjoyable. As a result, standards of living are higher in places dependent on the tourism industry compared to rural agricultural areas without natural attractions.

This document discusses key economic indicators in Pakistan from 2012-2017. It provides data on GDP growth rates (3.69-4.71%), agricultural growth rates (18.3-17%), industrial growth rates (3.4-6.9%), exports (24.58-20 billion), inflation rates (7.1-8.3%), unemployment rates (5.17-5.94%), investment rates (15.76-16.1%), and construction costs (9.2-10.7%). Reasons for fluctuations in these indicators over time include changes in global oil prices, agricultural policies, industrialization efforts, and enforcement of stricter building codes after 2005's deadly earthquake.
This document outlines a 5-year strategic action plan for Rezayat Group of Companies to expand into the African market. The plan identifies several African countries for potential investment based on an analysis of their economies, including Ghana, Kenya, Senegal, Namibia, and South Africa. Specific industries are proposed for each country, such as power supply and housing in Ghana, hospitality and ICT in Kenya, public utilities in Senegal, financial services in Namibia, and transport and housing in South Africa. The strategic action plan is intended to be an integrated part of a broader strategic plan covering various business functions to guide investments in Africa starting in 2015.
The document discusses the impact of the World Bank's Doing Business report rankings on foreign direct investment (FDI) in Kosovo. It finds that while Kosovo has improved its Doing Business ranking from 119th to 75th place from 2010 to 2015 through business reforms, FDI inflows remain the lowest in the region and have declined each year. The document attributes this to issues like corruption, informal economy, slow administration and lack of enforcement rather than the Doing Business ranking alone. It concludes that Kosovo needs a national investment strategy with targeted incentives to attract more private, domestic and foreign investment.
Uganda has seen strong GDP growth in recent years, though manufacturing makes up a smaller portion of its economy than agriculture. As an East African Community member, Uganda aims to increase regional trade integration and competitiveness. Based on UN trade data, the summary is:
1) Kenya has the highest manufacturing export capacity and impact in the EAC, though all countries have increased their global market shares over time.
2) While each EAC country has boosted manufacturing's role in exports, Kenya's share has decreased slightly.
3) Manufactured exports within the EAC have grown significantly but remain a lower percentage than exports to other regions. There is still potential to strengthen intra-regional trade.
This document provides an overview of workforce development initiatives at Dangote Group, the largest business conglomerate in Nigeria.

adoption of market-oriented policies, improvements in
business regulations and a generally buoyant global
commodity demand.
• The outlook remains good both in the short-term and

challenges remain in the short-term.
• Inflationary pressures remain high and the fiscal deficit
continues to be large.
• Despite concerns on perceptions of corruption, external
donors continue to provide budgetary support.

Infrastructure overview
Infrastructure Overview
• Poor transport and energy infrastructure are major
constraints to economic growth; they hinder companies
operating in Tanzania as well discourage others from
investing in the country.
• The state of transport, energy, water and port facilities is
very poor.
• The power sector is characterized by high demand in the
face of limited supply; even by the standards of other low
income African countries.
• Despite major investments in the water sector, water
supply and sanitation services remain inadequate.
• The Dar es Salaam port has serious capacity constraints
caused by high traffic growth and poor backward linkages
with inland transport networks.
• The poor condition of the rail sub-sector has caused a shift
of freight to road transport which, in turn, has resulted in
the deterioration of the already crumbling road network
due to movement of heavy goods vehicles.
Infrastructure Developments
• Tanzania has a score of 3.2 out of 7 on quality of overall
infrastructure in 2013/14.
• WEF competitiveness Index ranking of 124 among 148
countries.
• State of infrastructure is very poor with only 24% of the
population having access to electricity.
• Scored 2.3 out of 7 on quality of electricity supply,
ranking.
• Infrastructure is a top priority in the National Strategy
for Growth and Reduction of Poverty.
Infrastructure is one of Tanzania strategy's pillars for supporting the country towards greater competitiveness and a more inclusive
growth.

Achievements and Challenges Drivers And Barriers To Growth
• Tanzania's infrastructure levels are very poor and face a lot of challenges
that hinder the country's economic growth.
• Barriers to growth
• Lack of funding in infrastructure
projects is the main constraint to
infrastructure growth.
• Inadequate maintenance to
existing infrastructure.
• Drivers to growth
• Fast growing economy and
diversifying sectors.
• Number of infrastructure
development projects; planned
and on-going.
• Private investment in Tanzania's
infrastructure developments.
Achievements Challenges
Road
transport
• Tanzania has good road sector reforms and
the fuel levy is high enough to cover for
maintenance needs.
• Only 24% of the population lives within
two kilometres of all weather road.
• Fuel levy collection needs to be improved
as only 39% is collected.
Rail and ports • Rail corridor is of strategic importance to
the EAC with Tanzania's corridors being key
conduits for bulk freight.
• Dar es Salaam port is one of the major
container hubs in EAC.
• Poor track conditions ,rolling stock and
signalling systems as well as poor
financial and operational management.
• Poor port capacity and efficiency
problems at Dar es Salaam port.
Power • Potential to become an exporter in the EAC
power pool.
• Low access and unreliable power supply.
• High power supply costs.
ICT • Landing of the fibre optic international
submarine cables in 2009/10 has
revolutionised the market.
• Expanding commercial coverage of GSM

for submarine cables.
Air transport • One of the largest domestic air
transportation market in the Sub- Saharan
Africa.
• Terminal and airside capacity problems
and poor safety measures.
Water and
Sanitation
• Low open defecation and advanced
institutional reforms in urban and rural
areas.
• Too much reliance on surface water.
• Under-pricing and operational
inefficiencies.
Tanzania faces a lot of challenges that limit growth in infrastructure, the main one being underinvestment due to funding
challenges.

as much as 5.7trillion m³ by 2016.
Investments In Gas Sector
• Tanzania offshore natural gas reserves will take seven to
ten years to explore.
• It is estimated that the LNG projects will yield ~USD30bn
for Tanzania.
• Peak levels of investment are estimated to be between
2017-2020 period with LNG production starting between
2020-2025.
