Short. Easy. Serious. ======= Forget millilitres and kilograms. In this coffee universe, those are the new units of measure. You walk to the counter and say, “Give me a Serious,” and suddenly you must have a serious reason, a serious plan, and serious productivity to justify

Today’s site meeting was chaired by Engineer Rain himself. No minutes, no projector, just a stubborn storm and a flowery umbrella supplied by my site cheff. When you stand on site in heavy rain, the project stops lying: - You see where water really goes (not where the drawings

Born in Ugandan soil, perfected at the ASILI GEMS LTD lapidary facility, 80 carats of garnets, quartz and friends, all cut and polished in-house. Ready for jewellers who believe Africa should export craftsmanship, not rough stones.

Kings need no introduction. They simply walk in and the light rearranges itself. At 120 carats, this smoky quartz is the king of the table – a museum-size stone faceted at the Asili Gems Ltd lapidary. Around it sit its royals: smaller smoky and clear quartz gems, each one

Honoured to attend the ground-breaking of the Devki Mega Steel Plant in Tororo today. For Uganda, this must not only be about importing capital. It must be about integrating our own iron ore, cement, skills and research into a truly African steel value chain. That is the work in

The most important things we do are ordinary. Mundane. Repetitive. Just like the sun rises every morning and sets every evening. Just like the seasons quietly return every year. In engineering and in building, it is the same. Most of what we do is not dramatic. It is mixing,

Today at CEDAT, Makerere University, I chaired a panel of examiners for Final Year Project proposals, 4th years shooting into their final semester as they transition into civil engineers. A generation learning to frame problems, defend methods, and think for a country that
