Demystifying complexity

[Bank of Uganda @BOU_Official]

"Chairman, a country without reserves is not sovereign. The potential of this Bill to destabilize Uganda’s balance of payments is our primary concern as a central bank. For example, last financial year the overall balance of payment surplus was USD 1.5 billion. That’s how we were able to increase our reserve coverage by USD 1.5 billion. Today as we speak our reserves are close to USD 6 billion. Why? Because these inflows have been coming in. The moment you tamper with these inflows here, we risk running down our reserves, and that is economic disaster for a country.” Governor Atingi-Ego on the Protection of Sovereignty Bill 2026 in an appearance before Parliament today.

@GeoffWalkerNZ @JW__Balunywa 😂😂 lenses, distance between them and their effects don't have any thing to do with how long we've used them....

Well, if you can't challenge Israel, then, please, shut up! Because Israel has long past "TESTING THE LIMITS OF WHAT IS PERMISSIBLE"! Israel is operating in A "POST-LAW" WORLD; where the traditional legal principles and rules no longer apply. And the Value and function of law as we know it today is treated as NON-EXISTENT.
Ofcourse, this is possible because of the changed GLOBAL POWER DYNAMICS in the World. With no Country capable of CHALLENGING AMERICA'S MIGHT, and an American President willing to ignore State Sovereignty, International Law and Human Rights, Israel has discarded formal legal principles and practices that have shaped the world as we know it today.
I'm actually writing a paper on what a "Post-law" World will mean for Africa.

The President’s directive to allocate Nakivubo Channel to a private company violates our Constitution, Art. 237(2)(b). The channel, vital to Kampala’s ecology, is protected by the public trust doctrine. Such alienation is unconstitutional. #SaveNakivubo #RuleOfLaw

We spend $3.2B on raw gold imports but only earn $20M net. Local gold buying could add $600M–$1B in value. This may affect the exchange rate, so low and stable inflation is key to managing the real exchange rate. ~Michael Atingi-Ego, Governor, Bank of Uganda

When John Bragg's Maine blueberry operations were still harvesting by hand while machines existed that could do 10x the work, his executives were losing their minds.

The manager, an experienced guy named Burleigh Crane, was stuck in the 1970s. Every visit, Bragg would gently suggest modernizing. Crane would nod, agree... then go right back to the old ways.

The head office begged Bragg to intervene and force the change. Issue an ultimatum. Do SOMETHING.

Bragg's response? "He'll get there."

Months passed and the suggestions continued. But there were no orders or threats, just patience.

Eventually, Crane came around on his own and modernized the entire operation, not because he was told to, but because he decided to, on his own schedule. And because of that the Maine facility became one of the most efficient in the company.

This is how Bragg built his billion-dollar companies. Not through command and control, but through patience and suggestion.

His leadership philosophy sums it up:
