Our heritage is about who we are as a people, inheritors of our ancestors culture and property which of course include, our fixed natural assests,our eco-system for example and, our non-fixed but evolutionary ones including our history.

When we, I mean, civil servants and others inside Ghana and outside of it talk of the motherland as West Africa's tourism and investment destinations, we are inherently also talking about the economic gains in our boost. On Saturday December 6, 2003, Africanlife Styles (on PAX TV ,WPXW) at 2.30pm, continues to show -case some of the good things about Africa.This thirty minutes programme is produce with the co-operation of the Ghana Embassy in Washington,DC and this week's is totally devoted to Ghana.

The Acting Ambassador Mr. Isaac Aggrey is featured before a "trek" of tourist lane in Ghana as he talks about the importance of tourism to the economy of Ghana.There is also Prof. George Ayittey, always a good friend, an economist at American University in Washington,DC who discusses Africa with ace co-host Hilton Fyle.Ayittey is what in the world of the letters is called Afro-pessimist or arguing as an internalist, again a disciple of the same thinking that the problems of Africans are self-inflicted from within. Above all, there is in this programme on Saturday, the soul music of the ancestors mingling with that of the contemporary devotees. Africanlife !!

Enjoy your week-end.
