CHALLENGES OF AFRICAN AVIATION INDUSTRY 3

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013

1. High Cost of Doing Business in our region due to following detrimental:

    High Cost of Air Transport.

Lack of all weather, 24 hours airport facilities and air services.

Lack of stable supplies and expensive utilities. like electricity. Expensive training of aviation professionals.

CHALLENGES

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013 2. Few African ‘home’ Carriers.

Cont’d

With exception of ET, KQ, SAA, Royal MAROC and EGYPTAIR other countries have no significant global carriers.

Therefore, there are weak (or non-existing) air linkages among African cities/markets which are huge.

CHALLENGES

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013

3. Weak Institutions

3.1 Lack of Political Will to Open Up.

Cont’d

Yamoussoukro Decision (YD): An African Aviation Policy on creation of enabling environment for the development of intra-African air services was adopted in 1988!

3.2 Absence of a pan-African Executing Agency. Implementation of YD continent–wide has not started after 25 years!.

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013 5. Small scale economies of many African countries.

 Total African GDP is only USD 3,130 billion (purchasing power parity). Ref: African Economic Outlook 2011 by AfDB, OECD, UNDP & ECA.

 Per capita income are still low.

Top countries with earners above USD 5,000 p.a. are few: Equatorial Guinea, Seychelles, Gabon, Libya, Mauritius, RSA , Botswana, Namibia, Algeria, and Angola.

NEEDS OF AFRICAN AVIATION

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013

Liberalization of Air Transport

  Removal of airline eligibility (designation criterion) based on ownership of airline.

Instead: Principle place of business and effective regulatory control.

Open the skies. Fifth freedom traffic rights for sectors where there are no third and fourth freedom operators.

NEEDS

13

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013

Cont’d 2. Low cost Carriers

   Will capture passengers from buses and trains. Example Fastjet in Tanzania.

Moderate air fares in Regional Sectors where monopolies dominate.

Stimulate competition amongst carriers.

NEEDS

14

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013

3. Better Infrastructure

Cont’d

     Pavements and Terminals. Major airlines are deploying Very Large Aircraft which demands new, bigger infrastructure and facilities.

Modern Technology in ANS.

Radar Surveillance Systems are expensive and redundant.

New trend is Automatic Dependent Surveillance system (ADS-B).

NEEDS Cont’d

15

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013

4. Capital

  Airports are capital intensive ventures The funding from Commercial Loans and Government Grants are not sustainable.  Contemporary preferred financing models   Export Credit Agencies (ECAs) Infrastructure Development Funds

NEEDS Cont’d

16

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013

5.Increased FDIs

Raise the GDPs and therefore air transport boom.

  In 2012/13, Total FDIs in Africa increased by 5% to US$50 billion. Link www.ventures-africa.com

Leading natural resource rich states are RSA, Egypt, Nigeria, Algeria, Libya, Angola, Sudan, Congo, Mocambique, Ghana and Tanzania

6. Soft Skills in Management of Aviation

 Attitude, intelligent decisions and performance

REQUIREMENTS FOR AFRICAN AVIATION TO UNLOCK POTENTIALS

17

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013 In principle, Fundamental requirements for unlocking African potentials are:     People Land/Natural Resources Leadership Clean Politics

REQUIREMENTS FOR AFRICAN AVIATION TO UNLOCK POTENTIALS

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013

1.

People/Human Capital Development

 Competitive Human Capital with skills and cheap labor will attract more investment.

   Africa population is about 1,000 billion. In 2025 this is projected to reach 1.5 billions.

1% of this pop climbs into middle income class each year i.e. more than 10 million new pax p.a.

  African billionaires are growing in numbers.

There are 55 African billionaires with combined worth nearly USD 180 bio.

24 Tourist Attractions in Tanzania

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013 Founded in 1964 from two separate nation-states, Tanzania is home to Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain, and is one of Africa’s most popular safari destinations. The world famous great immigration is in Serengeti National Park – where the Noah’s animals went.

The world largest inhabited crater Ngorongoro crater. Co-existence of wild animals with Maasai pastoralists!

The country also has dozens of beautiful white sandy beaches such as those found in the island of Zanzibar.

Here are some of the most unforgettable tourist attractions in

Tanzania

.

25

Mount Kilimanjaro GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013 Mount Kilimanjaro is an inactive volcano in north-eastern Tanzania, near the border with Kenya. At 5,892 meters (19,331 feet) above sea level, Kilimanjaro is Africa’s highest peak and the world’s highest free-standing mountain. Although positioned close to the equator, Mount Kilimanjaro is famous for its snow-capped peak looming over the plains of the savannah. The mountain has become a major tourist attraction for mountaineers and trekkers from around the world

Serengeti National Park

Cont’d

Serengeti National Park is among the best-known big game safari destinations in Africa and one of the most popular tourist attractions in Tanzania. It is famous for its annual wildlife migration of wildebeest and zebra. One of the best times to visit the park is in May when the grass becomes dry and exhausted and the wildebeest and zebra start to mass in huge armies offering a spectacular wildlife show.

REQUIREMENTS

27

Cont’d

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013

NGORONGORO CONSERVATION AREA Ngorongoro is formed form a volcano erupting two to three million years ago which has collapsed and formed a crater. The steep sides of the crater have become a natural enclosure for a wide variety of wild animals. It is also presently one of the most likely areas in Africa to see the endangered Black Rhino. Local Maasai people are permitted to bring cattle to graze in the crater but are required to leave at the end of each day.

REQUIREMENTS

28 ZANZIBAR

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013 The island of Unguja, part of Zanzibar, makes up the final Spice Island. Once part of the British Empire, today Zanzibar is a semi-autonomous region of Tanzania. The African island has been for centuries an important trading center, a melting pot of African, Indian and Arab influences.

Zanzibar’s major tourist attraction is Stone Town, with its whitewashed coral rag houses

29

Known as the Green Island in Arabic, Pemba Island lies in the Indian Ocean and is part of the “Spice Islands”. As neighboring Zanzibar is becoming more and more popular with tourists, more adventurous travellers are seeking out the less-crowded Pemba. The island is especially popular with divers who come here for the untouched coral and very abundant marine life.

30

Lake Manyara GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013 In the wet season Lake Manyara is home to almost 300 different species of migratory birds, including thousands of flamingos. In the dry season, alkaline mud-flats take the place of the waters. This is the best time to see large mammals such as hippos, elephants, wildebeest and giraffe. A number of safari lodges provide tourists with lodging and day and night safaris to see the wildlife

31

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013 Tarangire National Park Smaller than Ruaha, this national park is a paradise for bird watchers as more than 550 different species frequent the park. Tarangire is also known for its huge number of elephants, baobab trees and tree climbing lions. Huge termite mounds can be found all around the park

32

Savanna animals can be found in this reserve in greater numbers than in any other African game reserve, thanks to stringent regulation by the Wildlife Division of the Tanzanian Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism. Most visitors arrive by aircraft, and walking tours or river trips are permitted, though no human habitation or permanent structures are allowed.

OBSERVATIONS/CRITIQUE ON FISCAL APPRAISAL 39

GLOBAL AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT 2013 Conventional approach for financial appraisal for infrastructure projects is not always realistic for African environment.

  Conduct Feasibility study Make decision based on the results Why this approach is not always right?

 In most of African countries, results are –Ve.  The reason: there is ‘oppressed demand’ in Africa
