Theft
of
computers,
office
equipment
and
cash,
is
a
major
threat
to
business
continuity.
That's
the
view
of
a
major
insurance
company
who
points
out
that
besides
the
financial
implications
of
having
to
replace
what's
been
stolen,
the
loss
of
critical
equipment
can
seriously
disrupt
a
company's
activities
and
even
bring
its
business
to
a
complete
standstill.

Olivado,
the
New
Zealand
company
which
is
investing
$2.5
million
in
a
Kenyan
avocado
oil
extraction
factory,
has
said
it
will
still
go
on
with
the
investment,
despite
the
recent
murder
of
one
of
its
engineers
in
Nairobi
in
a
robbery
incident.
The
engineer,
Julian
Nathan,
was
recently
killed
by
robbers
in
an
apartment
complex
in
Nairobi
where
he
and
two
other
employees
of
the
firm
were
staying.

This
summer,
one
food
trend
went
under-reported,
but
not
unnoticed
-
increasingly
higher
prices
for
staple
foods.
The
price
rises
affected
most
staple
grains,
as
well
as
meat
and
dairy
prices.
This
trend
is
particularly
affecting
countries
like
South
Africa,
which
is
desperately
trying
to
keep
inflation
under
control.
A
recent
visit
by
our
CEO
revealed
that
food
prices
in
South
Africa
are
literally
out
of
control
and
increasing
at
an
alarming
rate.

Some
15,000
wildebeest
have
drowned
in
the
Mara
River
during
their
annual
migration
between
Tanzania
and
Kenya,
shocking
tourists
and
baffling
conservationists.
The
mass
death
of
the
animals
was
the
first
of
its
kind
in
recent
memory,
and
it
struck
in
peak
season
at
the

Maasai

Game
Reserve,
which
attracts
some
300,000
tourists
each
year.
