By the way what is civil engineering about in Uganda - flower can grow in

Africa should look to science to
solve its problems – Icipe boss
By JOHN MBARIA 


Special Correspondent  
It was one of those newspaper reports that readers either ignore or give only a 
casual glance.  

On June 17, 2003, Danson Mungatana, one of the youngest members of Kenya\'s 
current parliament – probably because of the glut of mangoes that seasonally 
occurs in his Garsen constituency – asked the government to put up a 
fruit-processing factory there.  

The media reported Mungatana\'s appeal and one man, Dr Hans Herren, the 
outgoing director general of the International Centre for Insect Physiology  
Ecology (Icipe), wrote to Mungatana and set up an appointment for two days 
later.
