AEF Mwaiwathu Private Hospital  Limited (MPH) SUMMARY OF PROJECT INFORMATION    Project Name			Malawi-Mwaiwatu Private Hospital Ltd. (MPH)    Region				 Sub-Saharan Africa    Sector				Health    Project No				007534    Projected Board Date	   	   May 31, 1996    Company Name			Mwaiwatu Private Hospital Ltd (MPH)    Technical Partner and/or Major Shareholders:         The projects major shareholders are: Prof. Jack Wirima (7%); Malawi Development Corporation (18%); Indebank (18%); National Insurance Corporation (18%); Medical Aid Society (6%); Malawi Savings Bank (9%), Medical Research Institute (MRI) (7%) and other private investors.  MRI, a Johannesburg based private clinic management company, will be the projects technical partner.   					   Project Cost Including Proposed IFC Investment   	      		   Project Cost		US$4.36 million equivalent   		IFC Investment		US$0.77 million (equity)    Location of Project and Description of Site:  The project will be located on the outskirts of Blantyre on a 5.3 acre site which already contains a small clinic owned by Dr. Wirima.  This clinic will be demolished to make way for the new building.    Description of Company and Purpose of Project:        MPH will build a 60 bed private hospital to cater to the unsatisfied demand for good quality medical care.  The hospital will offer general inpatient and outpatient medical care and will provide a base for a group of 6 - 7 medical specialists in physiology, obstetrics, pediatrics, opthalmalogy, radiology and dentistry.    Malawi, with a population of over 9 million, about two million of which live in Blantyre, Limba, Lilongwe and other main towns, has a demand for health care which is not being met by the government services or existing private hospitals.  Malawians with resources seek treatment outside the country.  A modern high quality private hospital in Blantyre will help reverse the flow of patients and attract health professionals back to the country.    Environmental Category and Issues:  This is a category B project.  Environmental issues include professional handling and disposal of medical materials; disposal of medical waste; hygiene and implementation of good hospital management practices, and fire safety.  A professional hospital management team is to be contracted.  The company is currently preparing an environmental health and safety management plan.    The Environmental Review Summary is expected to be at the Public Information Center on/or about March 29, 1996.

MPICO Malls Limited The Gateway Mall Project is a new US$37 million mall development comprising about 18,000 m2 gross lettable area in Lilongwe the capital city of Malawi. The mall will cater to both local and regional customers and will be anchored by major South African retailers as well as a number of key local retail players. The land was acquired from the Government of Malawi on a 99-year lease and the site is sufficiently large to include the potential for a 7,000 m2 extension of the mall and also has sufficient space for a 150 room hotel project to possibly be implemented at a later stage. Construction of the mall is earmarked to begin in May 2010 and occupation is planned for September 2011. Key development impacts of the Project include: 
???Provision of high quality retail infrastructure: Currently there is no shopping mall in Lilongwe, the capital city of Malawi. The Project will support the development of high quality retail that meets international standards. With strong international anchor tenants and a range of retailers including smaller local companies, the shopping mall will bring quality retail services closer to the community, thus minimizing costs to consumers and helping to establish a strong retail destination;
???Job Creation: The Project will create jobs both directly and indirectly during construction and operational stages; 
???Enhanced local supply linkages: The Project will increase business opportunities to local suppliers of goods services; and 
???Formalization of the retail sector: The Project will enhance the formalization of the retail sector in the country, which is currently mostly informal. This will help increase the tax revenue to the government.

AEF Ufulu Garden REVISED SUMMARY OF PROJECT INFORMATION    Project Name		   	   Malawi-Ivy League Developments Limited t/a Ufulu Gardens   			     Region				Sub Saharan Africa    Sector				Tourism   				     Project No.			008299    Projected Board Date		October 15, 1997    Company Name			Ivy League Developments Ltd.   			     Technical Partner and/or Major Shareholders:	The company is owned 60% by Victor Gondwe and 10% each by his wife, Ivy Gondwe, and 3 children.  The Gondwes are Malawian citizens.  They returned to Malawi in August 1996 after spending 20 years in the United States where Mr. Gondwe worked as a computer programmer with Boeing Corp and Seattle Times and Mrs. Gondwe worked for Port of Seattle.    Project Cost Including Proposed IFC Investment   :   	The project is estimated to cost US$900,000 million and IFC has been requested to provide a loan of US$307,000.    Location of Project and Description of Site   :   	The project is located in Area 43, one of Lilongwe''s premier residential and diplomatic suburbs.  The site area is 7 acres.    Description of Company and Purpose of Project   :   	The company was set up to develop a short to medium stay residential complex consisting of 17 one, two and three bedroom bungalows.  The site will also have a 3 hole pitch and put course, swimming pool, two tennis courts, a jogging trail and a small artificial lake.  The development aims at attracting guests seeking better facilities than are available at Lilongwe''s hotels for medium term stays.    Expected Development Impact:	The diplomatic community; donor agencies; NGO''s and the foreign business community in Lilongwe has been growing and demand for high quality housing for both long and medium term stays is not met.  This project will improve the stock of medium stay accommodation.  The project will encourage foreign families to arrive in Lilongwe together, while they search for more permanent housing.  The project will be capable of earning foreign exchange from many of its guests.  It will employ about 26 people.    Environmental Category and Issues:	This is a category B project according to IFC''s environmental review procedure.  Environmental, health and safety issues associated with this project include impact of construction on existing vegetation; disposal of liquid and solid wastes, including sewage; source of power and water supply; staff infrastructure. Mitigative measures will include; CFC-free refrigeration and air conditioning; employee training and general safety; and emergency response preparedness and fire protection.

Zain Malawi Dist IFC will provide a partial credit guarantee as part of a risk sharing facility of approximately MK2 billion with Standard Bank Malawi Limited (Standard Bank or the Bank), which will provide local lending to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that distribute mobile telephone air time for Zain Malawi Limited (Zain). The proposed risk-sharing facility will enable Zains distributors to access financing from Standard Bank on favorable terms than currently available. The Project aims to: (i) provide Zains distributors with better access to financing on favorable terms; (ii) allow Standard Bank to expand its lending to this sector with lower risk of loss; and (iii) improve the ability of Zain to reach previously underserved market segments in Malawi. In addition to facilitating funding, IFC, in collaboration with our Advisory Services Unit, will provide a training and capacity building program for Zains distributors to help improve their management skills and credit profile. The Project is expected to deliver strong development impact by:

Improving Access to Telecommunication Services: The financing of Zains distributors through this Project would help strengthen the capital base of the distributors, enabling them to expand to previously underserved regions of Malawi.

Catalytic Effect: The demand for financing by the SME sector in Malawi is mostly unmet due to the perceived lending risks involved. The Project would encourage Standard Bank to provide funding to Zains distributors, who are part of the SME sector, based on IFCs assumption of partial credit risk and the demonstrated viability of such a structure.

Job Creation: The Project would lead to creation of new jobs as the distributors will need additional staff to support their expanding businesses.

Capacity Building: The Project will provide needed training to Zains distributors that should help build their capacity and improve corporate governance.
