Omg, my brother this would be a perfect place for us so peaceful and calming. Everyone can think clearly. Thank u my brother for thinking about us. 🤗🤗🤗
Mark, kudos, Mwanza is a great place to be. It is a laid back city and very affordable and pleasant weather. I will be happy to work with you. I am originally from Mwanza myself an African in a diaspora with two properties on the shores of Lake Victoria. I will be careful though when you are planning to buy large properties anywhere in Tanzania. Make sure you ask other neighbors to make sure that whatever you been told is right!
Hi Mark. I feel so happy and proud seeing you in action teaching these elders . I love it out in the country so peaceful away from the rat race in the city keep up the good work so very proud of you.
Perfect area . We are in Arusha right now and was thinking the same thing building our own community away fro the city . We looked at land in Kilimanjaro but this is a much better area . ❤️🙏🏾 praying on it ❤️
Just be careful. You’re doing a beautiful thing and I would hate the greed and shame of another brother to make yu not want to be invested in this cause cuz ITS A MUST ✊🏾✊🏿😭💯. So be careful my brother. You’re younger than me and out there doin yo thang. Inspiring
I would be interested in knowing the condition of land during rainy season. Also checkIng the condtion of the soil and ground to see what crops can be grown and what structures can be successfully erected there.
Mark, fantastic insight👍🏾👍🏾🕺🏾. Mwanza, has more opportunities for growth, development and the costs will be a lot lower, so much can be achieved there. Yes due Diligence is required, ensure the docs in order. Not everyone can be in Dar. And it’s better to be able to complete all your projects in a peaceful location, that can accommodate all the diaspora, A Hub, food development, accommodation, fish farm and so so much more YES. I’m 100% behind you🤜🏾🤛🏾. I think it’s a very good and by the Lake, 😎😎What?? Just beautiful views. Imagine what can be accomplished. Amazing!! That place seems to have great vibes and scope for much potential. I salute you Mark, great job 💖💖🥳🥳🤩🤩
Brilliant My home city 💙 thank you Just be careful because you will be told everything you want to hear which makes sense before you realise the opposite and no one is ready to be answerable I know you probably know but just take your time
I proudly invested in you project, and I know you are truly a sincere person with a good heart. I can't wait to see this place come to life. You are a true pioneer ! Keep up the good work
I am very proud My Young Brother. That is a huge piece of property. If I lived there I would spend My spare time fishing I don't eat fish either. Here where I live I fish and give the catch to friends. I love to work in the garden. The things You are doing there in Tanzania would cost You a hundred fortunes here in this country. ( USA ) I repeat I am very proud of You as if You were My Own Son or Baby Brother. You are My Baby Brother actually cuz We're both descendants of the same People Kidnapped Africans. Have You seen T3, Ni'yah and Their Parents lately? When Your Brother moves to another land You say be safe and enjoy. I feel confident that You are safe so I'll say enjoy. Until My next comment Love and Peace R Mack An Elder
Tanzania is wonderful country and amazing people! I visited Morogoro once for teachers' conventions sent from Ethiopia, and it was a memory of a life time. You seem to have a handful of great projects lined up on your path. All I can say is, "Keep it up!"
Yes I love the idea of business opportunities and jobs. I’m fine with starting my own business and running things. But I do feel like jobs should be an option. Everybody isn’t a creator
@@markmeetsafrica thank you! And continue to be your happy smiling self. It brings me great joy turning to your channel after a long day of work.. Congrats on your land purchase, diaspora community center, school, showing the village you lived in , your friends you are meeting along the way, your debates, and the whole you!
great job mark but investigate possibly wetland? to many ponds? flood zone etc.. maybe not able to build on that land find out why the last owner pullout🤓
Without a doubt, unity is key. I might've mentioned this on another vid but a community organization for diaspora expats should be in place to buffer the entrance of our people, to get them acclimated to the new culture and provide services. I would jump at the chance to help build something like that
Plse make Sure you get the legalities of owning Land in TZ right. It is impossible to own Land there if you are Not Tanzanian. You need to make a great investment to get it on a 99 yr lease which could be taken back if the gov needs it. So please be careful, however, if the Lord has opened this door no one can shut it. Keep us posted Mark. I am looking for Business opportunities.
Mark those mounds that you are calling mountains may actually be the dirt that came from the dug-out ponds, looking at the topography it looks likely to be very swampy in the rainy season
Swampy land is the most sort out as you have access to water for intensive farming. If it was I will figure out how to get solar panels for energy needs in my fish ponds and other horticultural crops.
Wonderful work you're doing Mark. You have a humongous heart! I'd like to contribute to your goals of helping people. Please let me know how I can be of service. Wishing for you blessings abundant. 🙏🏾
And if you’re concerned about the toxicity in plants or fruits or veggies, all you Gotta do is boil them. The other thing you can do as well, is, you can slice them open in quarters or eights and then you let them soak in water and then you bake them in the toaster. The other way you can do that is blanched them, by putting them in the boiling water then put them in ice afterwards. So you can use it for What you Want! Such as Purée for your starches, meats or veggies or you can use them in the smoothies Make pesto out of them (in like a clear plastic bottle salmon) anything over juicing. Just put it blender extra water
Beautiful land my Brother, we have to start owning more land, My Wife and I are thinking about investing we just have to get something started over here in America.
I was told that there are some snakes in Tanzania that like to watch human beings and will only harm you if you harm them. So get educated about them and never step on them.
The water puddles are the remnants of ponds built for fish farming. There are over 10 on the land. Most dried up but one is still going. In the future, we would like to revive the fish farm, as a lot of the infrastructure is already there. I will need to make another video showing more of the land
Hi Mark 😀! You almost answered my question at the end of this video. You said "that its much less than 2 acres." Based on the size of the land you visually surveyed; what does an acres of land 🤔 sell for in that community area 🤔? How can I invest 🤔 in that specific project as an African American Diaspora of Ohio, USA 🇺🇸? God Bless 🙌 You. 🙏
Wow ironic u have my Father’s name Clarence Dunn, but he has passed on, he was a great man, so I know ur too, blessings my brother, I just had to say something
Great news 👍🏾✌🏾👏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾. This is something what Diasporas need. A place to come and vist at least once and get an idea, inspiration, information, make up an own mind and get a feeling of how the motherland will embrace you. After visiting the first or the second time you might be ready to take your first steps on your own. And try to settle there for a while 😊😊.
@@markmeetsafrica lol 😆 😂 what my Hebrew Yisraelite Brother of Zion you didn't like my comment....?? I mint no harm beloveit Son. I ask because you've give anyone else a "HEART" 💖 but me.....!!! 😥
Shalom Mark, I have e-mail you since last month in march concerning joining up with your business, your papers was sent out to me’ I full it out and and sent e-mail it back to you. I have not got a response yet. I know you are busy. But whoever is working in the office have not respond back to me. You are a wonderful person. It’s will be a blessing for me to join up with you!peace and blessings always.
I am sorry to hear that. We should be caught up on emails. Please make sure you sent the email to markmeetsbusiness@gmail.com my assistant typically responds in 4 - 48 hours. I can check as well. Please comment your email address
I am intrigued by your group and have a lot of respect for your community. I see you are building a compound for diaspora. But why not fully integrate into the communities of Tanzania, Ghana, or Kenya?
Thank you. I thought about that at first and came to the conclusion that while we are one people, we cannot disregard our history and ways completely. We are a people with a rich history and experience. We cannot just adapt a new way. I feel it has to be a mix of old and new. Or here and there
@@markmeetsafrica I totally agree with you Mark. You are an amazing visionary. I look forward to our continued conversation. Andrea and I will be contacting you soon. Be blessed!
You have a hedge! Can I contribute to the "hedge fund?" I'm a little worried about those former fish ponds. I can't imagine the soil is any good after being underwater so long. They will probably be forever swampy. I'm sure the Catholics would have bought that land if it was worth anything. If the original owners couldn't make a go of the fish farm, it would give me pause to try it myself. It looks like someone has been farming corn patches down closer to the lake.
The cstholic church have huge and mostly all over africa. Land that was taken or bought mostly during colonisarion. They do not buy more land in Africa no more they have so much
Ur know western Tanzania is a home to snakes called koboko in Swahili (black mamba), there are so plenty of these poisonous creatures , likely the natives Sukuma and Nyamwezi tribes are much good in treating snake bite using local medicines and also have a very strong traditional herb /medicine once applied no any snake can bite or harm you.. I remember when I was still a little boy of 14 or 16 years old our grandma used to apply it over our heads once we wanted to go to the bushes to look for fire woods, guys it was so amazing no snakes did approach us ,when they saw us they ran away, it had a wonderful powerful spirit , oh lord ! oh lord !
Jabari Gabi brother Mark. Did the agent eventually reveal himself? Does he have a reason beyond privacy for concealment??? Otherwise , it appears to be paradise. Will do research…
You doing a good job so is it easy or it's difficult for foreigners to buy land in Tanzania and if you don't mind tell me the requirement and the pricesI'm thinking about coming there one of these days keep up the good job thank you
Is it difgicult/costly to ship items developed in Tz to the US and Europe? I'm just wondering if manufacturing goods in Tz and selling to US/European customers would be profitable.
over over one million years ago it's said by the Geologists that it reached to the regions of SINGIDA and DODOMA. And if you get to those places you will find that it makes great sense due to the features
Hey Mark,how do get the land title, i understand that is the tough part cz they say that foreigners can own a la nd unless they go through a native-born, i have a land in kigamboni bought before i become American iam Tanzania by birth but i need to go thru my parents or siblings to get a title.
@@markmeetsafrica please explain. Even via a company, the company cannot be fully owned by a non Tanzanian, you can only own less than 50% of the company
